Hello Layout - by Vicky Alberto

Sharing a layout today showcasing Blue Fern's Radiance collection which includes pretty papers, gorgeous chipboard, amazing lace and fantastic white flowers.  All I needed to do is add a doily from my stash.  The picture is a throwback to a little puppy abandoned from its mother at 7 weeks old (picture taken over 25 years ago!), that we ended up loving for almost 17 years before he passed away.

On the first close-up you can see that I cut a large ornate corner chipboard flourish to better suit my layout.  On the bigger portion I inked it dark yellow and then randomly glued some fabulous sunbeam powder on it.

On the smaller portion of the flourish above, and also the "hello" chipboard below, I used a mix of gesso and seafoam powder to give it a shabby chic look.

As always, thanks for stopping by to take a look at my project!

Altered bag with Radiance

Hi everyone! Henriëtte here. Today I'll be sharing another project I've made

using the Radiance collection.

I've altered a simple brown paper bag, decorated it with flowers, lace and chipboard and 

also added a big tag.

Before I started decorating the bag I painted the edges with a layer of white gesso and 

flipped the bottom to create a pocket.

I cut the Radiance papers to size and glue them on the bag.

This time I used the peach colored papers from the collection.

 They are so beautiful!

On the edge of the pocket I glued a piece of gorgeous lace and added a few matching flowers.

There is also a Radiant charm.

On the top of the bag I glued a big chipboard. It's the ornate florisch corner which I heat embossed with oatmeal embossing powder.

Then I made a big tag with a lovely flower ephemera center piece and 

a flower charm.

The backside of the bag is also decorated with the Radiance papers.

How a simple brown paper bag can turn into a beautiful gift bag!
