For this layout I used the Courtship Lane Collection. I LOVE the soft pastel colours in this collection.
The papers are perfect to pair with flowers, lace and ribbons.
I chose the Courtship Lane Royal Street paper as my background. I added delicate details to this paper using distress ink and a stencil, along with a stencil and texture paste.
I used embossing powder to colour my chipboard pieces. For the word Adorable I used Mystic Plum and Petal. For the Swirly Circle I used Mystic Plum, Cotton Candy, Petal, and Lilac embossing powders.
I finished my layout with a generous amount of flowers and lace. I also used the embossing powder in Snow to stamp butterfly images onto Vellum paper.

I started scrapbooking in 2006 when my daughter was born and have been becoming more and more obsessed with it each year. Finally in 2014 I’ve decided I’m ready to show my creations to others so please enjoy my blog.
