Hi everyone!
I’m sharing another DT project for Tresors de Luxe.
Last November, I created a ‘Grateful’ journal for myself. Because I really wasn’t sure what I wanted on the cover, I decided to just wait until I found the perfect products. Well……..as soon as I got my box of goodies from Lucy, I knew exactly what I was going to do!!!
I do love the look of lace with burlap and twine, so the rest was pretty easy to do. I glued the widest lace trim down first, making sure that the little bird on the scrapbook paper was framed by the leaves. Next I added a narrow band of burlap trim, closer to the spine.
Then I layered the pearl and beaded Alencon trim over top. I added a length olive twine on the piece, letting it twist and curl on its own, and spot gluing the edges under the trim.
I chose my flowers….starting with the light brown shabby chic flower embellishment. And then I added two yellow chiffon flowers. I tea dyed them first to tone down their brightness, and make them a bit more rustic. An older puffy word finished off the cover.
That details and beading in this trim just makes me swoon!!!!
I hope you enjoyed my project for today…..stay tuned for more!!
And don’t forget to check out the Tresors de Luxe blog, for more gorgeous DT projects!!
