Tiffany's is a gorgeous kit filled with Authentique's Classique: Elegant papers, creamy whites, soft turquoises and mysterious deep dark shades. I love it!
On my first layout I used several layers to make a shabby frame and then used the stencil in last month's media kit to mask the entire background. I used Luminarte Radiant Rain Shimmering Mist in bashful blue from the April mixed media add-on to give my background some blue tints and lots of sparkle. I die cut vines using a Memory Box Caserta Bloom die from the store and then layered flowers from the kit and flower addon over top. The photo is of my parents shortly after they were married;
I sprayed the black flowers with the Luminarte Radiant Rain bashful blue to give it some shimmer! This is the first time I've used Luminarte Radiant Rain mists and they are AWESOME. I just love the sparkle they add to a project.
The monthly sketch was my inspiration for this layout of my great niece.
When you see this kit, you probably won't think of a snowy layout but the cardstock addon has a glittery white sheet that just screamed snow to me! I had this pictures of my spoos that were begging to be scrapped and they worked perfectly with the colors in this kit. I really love the lace and rhinestone trim that I've used on the left, its just perfect to bling up my poodles and you know poodles need to be all blinged out, LOL!! The circle &snowflake chippies and the letters are from my stash, everything else is from the kit and addons. I used the Viva silver paint and turquoise embossing powder from the mixed media addon to color the circle chippy, white gesso and stickles on the snowflakes.
For extra sparkle I added some crystal stickles from my stash around the edges of the flowers.
