'Your Shelter' Layout by Helen Tilbury

Hi there :)  Helen here with another layout for you - this one was inspired by

the Prima Product Pick for February.  It's primarily a colour challenge and,

being Valentine's month {and day today!  Happy Valentine's Day!!} they are

primarily pinks, reds & purples.  As I have LOADS of flowers in my stash

I had no problem coming up with this layout...

I used the B side of an older Prima paper from the Paradise City

Collection (2009 - go me!) & prepared it by first stencilling over

an antique plastic doily (using Hard Molding paste by Golden)

then misting with several colours and brands of mist, including

white {Calico White by Studio Calico} that I simply ♥!!

Now can you spot all the Purple Pumpkin goodness in here??

Firstly I used a red lace flower (cut in half - go for it!) from

the store HERE.  I also used another ribbon lace flower (the

beige one on the left of the photo) which I also cut in half.

It's a great way to save & spread your embellishments around

your pages.  You can buy similar ones HERE.  See the cameo in 

the top left corner of the photo?  That is also a Purple Pumpkin 

one which is not currently available but there are similar resin

 flowers available for purchase in the store HERE.

Above you can see the red lace flower really clearly.  I sponged it

with gesso & used the other 1/3 of it up above my photo underneath

my title.  I also used a LARGE and an XLARGE fabric button

here, under the photo, which you can buy HERE and HERE.

I also used some Purple Pumpkin washi tape in various places

on my layout (I find the best way to do this on shabby style layouts

is to tear it).  You can buy that HERE.  A HUGE selection at

the best price (I can see!) online!!  I also used another resin flower

cameo in this cluster & also a felt doily-die-cut from a past 'Limited

Edition' kit - so there is PLENTY of Purple Pumpkin product here.

Here you can see lots of little bits of the torn washi tape I used.

I really loved creating this layout - everything just came together

without a hitch & it helped me enjoy and deplete a significant

amount of my Prima stash too.  I hope you enjoyed your peek

at my latest Purple Pumpkin page!
