Together layout by Marielle

Hello and Happy Fall !

Today I will be sharing how I created this layout with the gorgeous Truly Grateful collection from Paige Evans for Pink Paislee featured in the October main kit.

Together

Step 1- Add splats of watercolor paints in shades of pink and purple to a white cardstock base, let dry.

Step 2- Cut a 8"X 3" and a 7"X 4" strip of the leaf/stripped paper. Fold both pieces in half on the diagonal ,as shown. and adhere to layout.

Step 3- Machine stitch into place ,if desired.

Step 4- Mat photo with white cardstock.

 I have been waiting years to use this photo of my mom and I. This collection was perfect !!

Step 5- Add "together "title ( I used pop dots to adhere)

Step 6- Add one of the cute butterflies at the top edge of the title.

Step 6- Stitch the heart with white DMC floss.

Step 7- Add flower and leaf embellishments.

Step 8- Add sub title.

Step 8- Add embellishments to the left side of photo.

Step 9- Add more of the pretty embellishments at the top.

Step 10- Trim the white cardstock down to 10 1/2" X 11" ,trim the 2 left edges with a corner rounder. Adhere to the pink grid paper and add a few X stitches to the top and bottom.

Step 11- Add some of the puffy accent dots ....love those !!!

I hope you have enjoyed of the beautiful projects posted on the blog this month and that you have a chance to create something beautiful with this kit !!!

Big Hugs !
