I love pairing up Authentique papers with Petaloo anything...

they were made for each other, which makes any project

using the two fun!

Today I'm sharing a layout of my daughter with photos

that I took after her last dancing show.

 I started with a background from one of the Lovely papers, 

"Crush" and a little bit of misting in black velvet by 

Heidi Swapp. The next step was pretty cool...I actually embossed

 a small piece of the "Dearest" paper in a rose pattern and 

used it as the mat for my photos.

The shabby chic look of the Pink Dahlias mix perfectly with

 the cute whimsy of the Mini Florettes with their

 blinged centers.  I placed a small round foam dot on

 the backs of the Florettes so that they would really pop up

 from the embellishment they were added to.  

In keeping with the 'round' embellishment theme, I used the

 three round seals from the "cards repeats" stickers, along 

with a doily die and round punch.  It's fun to experiment

 with the different punch-outs and stickers to see 

what will look best and where...Authentique

gives you so many possibilites in all of their collections!

Playing cards are one of my favorite things to alter.

They are just the right size for little love notes and messages to leave for your favorite people.

Authentique's "Lovely"  is the perfect collection for making these sweet little love notes.

I also added cool May Arts ribbon and THESE fun Dazzle flowers from Petaloo match perfectly and add just a touch of bling.
