Swirlydoos September Kit, Vintage Love

Hello friends! I was unable to participate in the reveal blog hop but I have all my projects done and ready to share! First off , this kit is awesome! Lots of new Prima  from the Time Traveler's Memories Collection. It's dark with a vintage edge!

I'd like to think my style of scrapping is elegant with a bit of shabby chic. Although, sometimes I like to dabble in the dark side. That's the effect I wanted here for this page. My daughter has the prettiest blue eyes and dark hair. Dark make-up and red lipstick extenuate them more. I thought this pictured was perfect for the feeling I was trying to portray. Normally, Clea does not wear make-up like this. LOL! This was just for fun! 

 
Now back over to the light..hehee!! So, I distress the cardboard the kit came in and glued the heart panel (from the embellie kit) to it making this for my Delilah's room. She loves butterflies and fairies just like her mommy! I painted it all with gesso and used modeling paste to make the polka-dots. Then misted it with Prima mist. The Fairy Butterflies will be added to my Etsy shop soon for all your fairy lovers out there!


 This is the page I created using the monthly sketch.
 
 
Lastly, I created this tag.  I used the package from the Vine (used on the sketch page from the Flower Add-on)as the main tag. Then layered a bunch of goodies.

 Here is the Main Kit.

Altered Mason Jar Tresors de Luxe

Hello friends. Today I'd like  to share my last project for Tresors de Luxe. It's been an amazing three month creating with the lovely trims. Thank you Lucy for the opportunity.
 
The black trim is beautiful but I found it hard to use on a scrapbook page. You know, because the little dangles would move around. I felt like it needed to be wrapped around something so I chose a mason jar.

Sewing Pocket *Tresors de Luxe*

Hello everyone! Today I'm sharing another Tresors DT project. I made a sewing theme pocket full of pretties. I took a glassine bag, machine stitched to make a pocket and stuffed it with tags. On the front of the pocket I used the gorgeous Venice lace. For the large tag I used the pretty floral spray and more lace.
