Wedding - twisted easel card

Back today folks with this fun neutral feeling card in a Twisted Easel Card style..

Would suit maybe a beach or subtle outback wedding?! What do you think?

I love that you may never think certain pieces of chipboard would ever go together until you try them. Memory Maze produce so many styles that can easily be placed together on the same project. As many of you would know by now, I love to LAYER my chipboard pieces, so Memory Maze are the perfect go to items for me.

Wedding card

The making of this card was quite simple. Kaiser papers and Flowers, Memory Maze chipboard, some Peals, Washi and Twine.

The title was lightly painted with a cream colour, then brushed over by Antique Linen distress ink. The swirl in the front was inked with Pinecone from Versamark. The side tribal flourishes are actually the off cut middle from another project, they have been lightly painted with White paint.

Well hello crafting friends. I do hope that you have been having a lovely week. I am here today to share with you something that you may have seen before, but with a twist!

My first project is a mash up between "Pocket Letters", Project Life and Scrapbooking. I hope you enjoy it!

You can view the video tutorial I made for it here - http://youtu.be/D9Xk3xgVLBs

The photos feature my little mr attitude Hunter.. While during a photo shoot his true cranky little master attitude came to life.. The photographer was amazing! She just giggled and kept clicking away.. Mark and I loved the these attitude photos of Hunter cause that really is him! lol..

I made this layout solely because I wanted to make a Pocket Letter, however once I made it, I really didn't like it.. So I refused to leave my crafting table until I made another one that I would love.. Of course I went straight to my boys photos and into boy themed papers (Kaiser Scrap Yard collection) and created in my comfort zone.. I'm so loving how this has turned out! It uses the basic collector card sleeves (most popular for baseball cards.. Most popular in the crafting word for ATC's..)
