Sew Vintage Layout - Couture Creations

Hello there everyone, Today I have created a layout titled "Sew Vintage"

 using the new release diecuts from the "Glamour Days collection 

from Couture Creations.

I do love vintage and I could not resist in creating

a very Vintage layout - inspired with the sewing

diecut and the papers from 

the new released

Paper Pads 12'x 12' 

"Sew Jo" also available from Couture Creations.

Here are the 4 papers
that I have chosen for my layout, 
there are 48 doubled sided papers 
in  the paper pack, and they all compliment each other.

Cut out 2 panels of the

with Kraft cardstock. Glue them

on a piece of black cardstock one at each end.

As shown below.

Cut 4 strips of the  Sew Jo - paper pads as shown below

distress edges and ink edge with inkpad.

 Arrange and adhere papers on to

black cardstock as shown, mat vintage photo onto

black cardstock, adhere to layout.

Cut measuring tape papers and attach to underneath photo, as shown.

Cut 2 Scallopp oval nesting die

and 2 Oval nesting die 

with paper pad 

and 

C0723715  Glamour Days Sewing machine

Arrange these pieces as shown in photograph,

adhere with Couture Creations Foam Tape on either side of layout.

Place Couture Creations Pearls in the

 Decorate the page with buttons, tape measures, flowers, pegs,

metal studs, Vintage lace, etc also add title to page with stickers.

I also added some Couture Creations Pearls

Vintage Heirloom Altered shoes

Hi everyone, today I have my  

Vintage altered shoes to share with you all.

My commissioned assignment in 

"Australian Scrapbooking Ideas" Issue 21 

I had to alter 3 different types of shoes.

I did a Steampunk shoe and a Shabby Chic shoe and

I also created a Vintage pair of children's

satin shoes in a box.

I altered this pair of shoes

to make them look very old.

Placed them in a framed box, lots of vintage satin lace, pearls and velvet shabby flowers.

The new issue of 

"Australian Scrapbooking Ideas Magazine"

Issue 23

will be out next week!!!

It is jam packed with inspirational 

Christmas projects and ideas.

There is also a

great free paper pack from "Ruby Rock-it" 

that is

included in the magazine.

That's all for today :)

Thanks for looking
