Laura Ashley Papers



Laura Ashley have launched their own range of yummy stuff, I made these two cards using their 8x8 papers, they are gorgeous.
The top one I cut the circle on my Expression & cut out the birds on some of the left over paper & embellished them onto the edges. I then cut the scalloped tag using Mini Monograms cartridge I also did this on the shadow setting for the purple behind, I inked the edges with Pastel Olive Colour Box Chalk ink. Added the ribbons three of them to co-ordinate and a few gems.
The Toile one I was not so happy with, just a quarter circle on the bottom right edged with French Blue Colour Box Chalk ink, flower cut from George & embellished with ribbon.

    Beautiful! I didn't think I liked the Laura Sshley papers but you make them look soooooo good. You asked what pens I use on Dottie, I use Whispers brush markers and lots of paper piecing too.

    Hi Sadie, just thought I'd clarify. I'm from the States...New Mexico, not Mexico, just across the border from Old Mexico though.
