Love & Friendship

Hey there Stencil Fan!

Natalie here sharing an easy Scrapbook layout featuring the Love of my Life, Trevor's and my daughter Jessica. 

This month we are celebrating Love & Friendship here at StencilGirl and there was a heap of photos I could have scrapped but I particularly love this one taken in Tasmania a little while ago.

This was the trip we took to see my beautiful Grandmother and it would turn out to be the last time we saw her before she passed away ... so this trip was definitely all about love! 

I started by taking the Fallen Leave 9x12' stencil designed by Jessica Sporn and used three colors in the Lindys Sprays to add color to 2 pieces of flat white cardstock.

 

I then took one of the stenciled pieces and cut out a heap of those beautiful leaves.

With the remaining stenciled sheet, I trimmed it down to just under 9x11' and adhered it to my page.  To create the stitched edge, I used some 13arts transparent stickers instead of dragging out my sewing machine (I love a good shortcut).

I foam mounted the image to the page and then each of the leaves was then slid in underneath the photo before I added some pretty Prima flowers.

Here is a quick YouTube tutorial just to show you how easy it really is!

Thanks for dropping by and I would love to hear what you think so leave me some love!
