FabScraps Heritage Range - “Heart & Soul”

Hi everyone I’m Sharmaine and I’ve been playing with some of the gorgeous papers that are in the FabScraps “Heritage” range. 

Products I have used:
FabScraps Heritage paper
FabScraps Die-Cut Grey Chipboard “Heart & Soul”
FabScraps Boxed Filigree Embellishment
FabScraps Pearls
FabScraps Silk Flower
FabScraps Jelly Brad
X-Press It TripleTac Glue
X-Press It 6mm Double Sided Tape 
X-Press It Glue Marker

First thing I did was cut up some of the paper into 2” squares
I then adhered these to some scrap cardstock using the TripleTac glue

By using the glue, instead of tape, I was able to work quickly and get a lovely coverage all over the page.
To make my background more uniform (and not loose the photo into the background) I covered the background with some white paint.
I then crumpled up the page,

to create a worn, quilted look, with specks of the gorgeous pattern paper showing through.

I then backed my photo with some layers of the gorgeous pattern papers,

before going to town adding embellishments.

and a FabScraps metal butterfly, kept in place with a FabScraps brad.
I’ve added some FabScraps pearls, adhered with the X-Press It Glue Marker .

I’ve also used the glue marker to add the chipboard.
The chipboard was perfect for the title of my layout
