Paris Layout - Meg's Garden

Hi there everyone,

today I have a project I created using the wonderful papers from 

"Meg's Garden of Papercraft delight" paper, 

The Gentlemen's Collection, designed by Kerry-Jean Watson.

Now another love of mine is the city of "PARIS".

I created a grungy and vintage Paris page with lots of layers,

bits and pieces with all embellishments which are

all available from Megs Garden Website.

Vintage trinkets

Metal Cogs

Tim Holtz products

Here is my page "PARIS"

Besides the black cardstock for the background, I

used a piece of corrugated card, I also embossed

a piece of kraft cardstock with some antique keys,
"Couture Creations embossing folder" and

distressed all the new paper collections 

The Gentlemen's Collection.

I also cut some Floral flowers with a Tim Holtz die
with the 

The Gentlemen's Collection papers.

 I also cut some leaves and stems with the papers as well.

Inking and creating the flowers I placed some cog
chipboards in the centre of them with brads.

Distressing all the layers of card stock and papers with distress tool and inks and paints.

With the chipboard frame, I painted with some gold paint and placed some

Tea stained Mica fragments also glued some Tea stained Mica fragments also on the side of the black background card stock.  

Tim holtz 
metal frame corners 
with some white paint of top of them.

3. Place the piece of sanded embossed card stock on
a square card, as per my example below.

and vintage image with Nesting Dies - Oval  C0723044
Ink edges with  Sponge Daubers C0723623 and ink pad.
Adhere Couture Creations Double sided foam tape

underneath each die cut paper cut out,
and place on the front of the card, as shown.
