Shabby and Gorgeous Two Page Layout for a by SweetlyScrappedArt

Hi.

This listing is for a two page layout for a 12 x 12 album that is filled with all kinds of little goodies. It is VERY 3 dimensional. It is created around a dance theme. Whether it be for photos from a recital, or her dancing in the livingroom, it's an adorable page for those photos :) Just a reminder, with my photos, you will be able to click on them and zoom :) That way you can see items up close if you would like to.

The first page has two photo mats. They are both sewn. They have a gorgeous print from K & Company. There are pretty flowers adorning every photo mat. The one on the left has two gold glittery shimmery layered flowers with brad centers. It has a pink grosgrain ribbon running up and down. Your photo will slide easily behind that. Above that is a little ballet recital book. There is the word "love" attached to that ribbon, so you will see this placed over your photo. Below that is the embellishment that I created that reads "Dance" with chipboard letters, matted onto a shabby print, and then matted again onto textured cardstock. The edges have been inked for dimension and for detail in chocolate. There are swirls, rhinestones, flowers, and the leaves are this really pretty texture fabric. Next to that is a 3 dimensional chipboard journal box. The outside is popped off the page with pearls and inking and a flower applique. The part that you write on lays flat to the paper, making it easy to write. Above that is a metal charm with a design that reads "Beauty." The photo mat above that is also sewn, and has this soft feeling scalloped white lace running across. Your photo will slide easily behind that lace also. The flowers at the top are accompanied by a cream crocheted doily. There is also pearls in the center of these flowers and there is a "blingy" flower. If you look at the border at the top (and bottom) they are layered with paper, ribbon and lace. I have then attached shabby buttons all the way across.

On the next set of pages, you have my freehand drawn little ballerinas. The borders at the top and the bottom are the same on both pages. Ont his page, there are two photo mats also. At the top of the first one (on the left) there are gorgeous flowers at the tops, leaves, blingy flower, and a rhinestone jewelry piece. This photo mat also has lace running across (which your photo will slide easily behind). Below that are more flowers, rhinestone jewelry piece, and a vintage feeling dancer charm. On the right is a metal rimmed circle with cream satin ribbon. There are also white feathers on this page. The second photo mat is also sewn, and tucked just enough under the lace border at the top. Your photo will slide easily under that also. Then, there are little flowers, applique style leaf, and swirls too. The top of the photo mat has a metal embellishment that reads "Joy." Below that are one of the main focuses of the page, and that would be the two sweet ballerinas in their HANDMADE tutu's! Yes, I have hand knotted each little piece of tulle, until I created two pink tutu's for the girls. They are standing near the balance bar. They are reaching up. The one girl has a rhinestone style flower in her hair the other has pearls and a flower applique. Did you see their little shoes? Pink ballet shoes with pearls on the side. I had fun drawing these little girls. Their cheeks are rosy pink and they have cute little chubby girl legs :)

There are also painted pearls at the bottom of each page, along the border, inbetween each scallop of the punches.

If you have any questions, please send me a message.

I ship all my layouts inbetween two stiff pieces of cardboard. (after being tissue wrapped, etc.)

Thanks so much,
Emily
