Craft Warehouse: Webster's Pages Layout

When I saw this paper, I pulled my vintage umbrella out from inside my closet, drove over to my sister Jen's, and begged for a quick photo shoot. 


The clouds were threatening rain again and with some quick snap shots and some amazing editing techniques we got some fun photos that work great with this paper line called Garden Gala.

This page was all about the flowers.  My "scrunchie" style flower was made using the floral fabric ribbon with a vintage sparkler in the center.

Craft Warehouse: Webster's Pages Banner

It was such a privilege to be working with Webster's Pages new paper collection Garden Gala as my first assigment for Craft Warehouse.  The line of papers and beautiful embellishments remind me of an antique faire.  

Here is a banner I made using the new line...

I love Ranger's new Rock Candy.  Once dried, I added some Distress Ink with my blending tool to color in the cracks.  Tim Holtz is an artistic genius!

Banners and garlands are all the rage.  I had a blast making my very first banner and I am sure I'll make even more using this line from Webster's Pages!  Not right away though... I figured I spent a good 30 plus hours on this project.  A lot of scraps and a lot of glue.  Many times, I had to wash my hands when I couldn't get the paper off my finger tips!

More pictures of my project can be found here, and if you want to see more project ideas, check out the other designers!  They are amazing!
