Showered with Love

Scrapbooking is one of my all time loves...It is a lil more time consuming than card making BUT the results speak for themselves. Here I have created a very special layout for my Daughter's Bridal Shower.

 To create this layout I started with a die to create my very own stencil, using the Eclectic Layers Thinlits and a piece of Window sheet - 142314 and Embossing Paste - 141979

 I had some spray residual leftover on my precut stencil so I used that on my layout with the embossing paste and this allowed the differing colour depths of the Berry Burst - 144089. I put this aside and allowed it to dry....PLEASE NOTE the Embossing paste dries very quickly so be sure to wash your stencils and tools off immediately as soon as your finish...

So from this blank canvas I started to create my layout using matching DSP Naturally Eclectic - 144185, along with the Eclectic Layers Thinlits - 143774. After many runs through the bigshot I had enough flowers to create my spray up the LHS side of my layout... Added some stamped flowers from Oh So Eclectic Stamp Set - 143940

After much fussing and moving things around and with the consultation of a few of my online scrapbooking buddies over at Stampin' Up Scrapbooking Global they gave me a few pointers. I was happy with the end result, I finished off my layout with a title from various Stamp Sets - Brushwork Alphabet - 141772, Window Shopping - 143265, Lovely Friends - 143763 . I added Clear Faceted Gems - 144142 to the powder pink stamped flowers.
I also saved the triangle cut outs from the die to create some varying points of interest scattered here and there.  Here is the finished layout....

Inspiration was drawn from another scrapbooker Cheryl Algie on our group page
