Wild and Free Layout Guest Designer for Lady Pattern Pap

Hi everyone, today I'm sharing a layout created for Lady Pattern Paper using the beautiful Bohemian Muse collection. 

 

"Say hello to Bohemian Muse… This dreamy 12×12 scrapbooking paper collection is ideal for the wonder seekers, the wild spirits and live-simply dreamers! Feathers, arrows, cactus and artistic tribal patterns in a soft watercolour palette of apricot, steel blue, slate grey and hints of dusty violet. Matching need-to-have chipboard elements and beautiful masks the perfect finishing touches for your next paper crafts project." Source - Lady Pattern Paper website

 

Here is the layout that I created plus a brief tutorial and close up photos so you can see how I've created the page. 

 

Tutorial

1. To create the base you will need the Blooms 12x12 paper and the Wreath 12x12 paper.
2. Fussy cut out the wreath leaving the white centre. This is to allow some contrast with the orange base. Adhere to the base.
3. Cut out the Succulent Frame chipboard from the frame. Ink with a coral coloured ink. I've used Tim Holtz Distress Oxide ink in Abandoned Coral. Slip the photo through the frame as shown. You will need to trim your photo down. My photo was 6"x4" trimmed to fit. Adhere to the base with foam tape.
   
4. Fussy cut the cacti from the Cactus 12x12 paper, adhere either side of the photo as shown.
5. Cut the Wild & Free chipboard from it's frame. Trim off the three feathers and ink with a teal coloured ink. I've used Tim Holtz Distress Oxide ink in Salvaged Patina. Adhere underneath the photo at the bottom.
   
6. Cut the 'diamond' border from the Tribal Borders chipboard set. Ink with teal ink (Salvaged Patina Distress Oxide). Cut the border between the second and third diamond. Adhere to the layout as shown. This gives the impression that the border is longer than it is and continues on underneath the photo.
   
7. Ink the Wild & Free chipboard title with black ink. I've used Tim Holtz Distress Oxide ink in Black Soot. The Distress Oxides work great with this type of chipboard. Colour over with shimmer pen or glitter glue. 
8. On the reverse side of the Cactus 12x12 paper, cut out the "Wild & Free" panel then fussy cut the arrow/floral cluster.
9. Adhere the title to the bottom of your photo on top of the arrow/floral cluster piece.
10. Add a few gems around the page, on the chipboard border and the centre of the succulent as shown to finish the layout.
    

Here are some close up photos so you can see how I've created and embellished the layout.
