Our Memories You & Me

Hello friends!
Happy Wednesday!

Today I am sharing a beautiful Scrapbook LO in Mixed Media style with romantic feel on it!
It's my Anniversary month and this romantic LO created for my 25th anniversary, so special for me!!!!

How quickly time flies, I do not believe that so much time has passed since that special moment in life! It seems it was only a couple of years ago!!! We do not remember days, we remember moments and memories!
My Chipboard frame and title say it all!
I started with choosing a couple framed chippie as my focal point with luscious layers and I really love to work on the theme with nature, they always get very atmospheric and natural. And describes my emotions accurately with wonderful moments and memories in this LO. Bright spring greens with tender pink blooms of gardens. Emerald freshness- As St. Hildegard of Bingen, the noted lithologist, declared, "All the green of nature is concentrated within the Emerald" Representing youth in the age of man, The soul like the heart of spring, symbolizing hope and the future, renewal and growth. It is a Seeker of Love and a Revealer of Truth.

Firstly I placed all the elements roughly and took a photograph of it. I just love how well this gorgeous paper matched with all the elements!

I used one of the sheets for my LO base from Coral cluster PP, applied clear gesso on it and adhered it on an Olive green sheet.

Cut the edges of some of the flowers for my matting at focal point from another paper collection, distressed the edges. Sponged the distressed edged with Vintage photo ink.

Using texture paste did some stencilling and spray some color with misting water.

I reused my Tulle mesh from one of the wedding cards and tucked it and glued it under the flower cut edge at the top corner and on my matting layers with creasing. Placed a ring of pollen strings on the circle as shown in the above pic.

Fussy cut some flowers from the stack. Embossed and glittered some of the different chippies.

Applied white chalk paint on the couple frame chippie and embossed it. Added some flower sequins to her gown.

Stamped some flowers and leaves on vellum, embossed in bright opaque white and fussy cut them. 

Arranged all the elements for embellishment as shown in the pics.

At the end added some splatters in various colors. added some tiny granules(in pink color) using gel medium and some texting!

Finished it off with some 3D stickers!

Now some close up views of the detailed work.
I first applied gesso on the chipboard frame with a sponge for some textures and painted it with white chalk and then heat embossed the frame only with embossing powder as clear in the pic.

Hoping you all enjoyed this LO!

Happy Crafting!
