Monday Memory Keeping...

 

Preserving memories through memory keeping has to be one of the most satisfying ways to feed a creative urge.  Not only does it let you show love for the important people in your life, but you can also surround beloved photos with your own creative touches—adding an embellishment here, a Designer Series Paper layer there—until you feel that you’ve honoured your loved one and created a work of art at the same time. I think this Always Together page would be a treasured gift—one to copy, frame, and share with family or friends!

Add something special to the project by inking up the True Love Designer Series Paper background layers.  Give the flowers’ rich colour... First, colour the images with Daffodil Delight Stampin’ Blends, then add a blush of colour on top using the dark Petal Pink Stampin’ Blend marker. ~ Add a bit more depth by adhering a Vellum Cardstock layer behind the photo, then make the page pop with a sprinkling of Artistry Blooms Sequins.

And let’s not forget that beautiful “Always” sentiment! Stamp with VersaMark ink on Bumblebee Cardstock and heat emboss using White Stampin’ Emboss Powder.
