a scraplift

Hi ladies, I am still alive and scrapping. I have been busy with my Project Life and still trying to figure out ways and techniques to make everything work for me. It was quite difficult since this will be my first time and I have not purchased the kit. I decided to use the stash that I have right now and improvise making it harder for me. Hopefully, the next few days will be systematic and everything will work out.

Anyway, last week I was given a task to lift a particular layout from the BasicGrey Flickr gallery. I was amazed about the simplicity and depth of the design that I immediately decided not to changed the design too much.

Here is the layout by mariemily:


Here is my interpretation:
SUPPLIES : [WISTERIA] WIS-1637 Garden Patio, WIS-1640 French Topiary, WIS-1642 Jardin, WIS-1646 Willow, WIS-1648 Primrose, WIS-1656 Sticker Alphabet, WIS-1655 Sticker Elements [LITTLE BLACK DRESS] LBD-3486 Drama Mod.

I strived to remain true to the overall design and just altered it to use 3 photos instead of one. I did several handcutting and layering here as well

Just gorgous work, LG...that BG paper is perfect for the purple dress in the photos...love the border at the bottom, and the two leaves at the top of the photo cluster add the perfect flow and design interest to the page.

I just saw that you linked to my blog here. Thank you! The missing s was my fault, I put the wrong address on the BG blog.

Your page is beautiful. I love the way you interpreted my sketch!
