In the Mood: Beautiful Pastels!

Hi everyone!  Today I am sharing some projects I made using Pink Paislee's latest mood board!  It seems like mood boards are all the rage now and I can definitely see why!  I loved using it to make these next 2 cards.  I am looking forward to more of Pink Paislee's mood boards because I am sure they will coordinate with my favorite Pink Paislee collections!  Their current mood board reminded me of a spring gala and had me reaching for their beautiful  Color Wash and Sentiment Series collections!  Take a look!

 

This somewhat party themed board had me thinking prize ribbons, so I used the amazing Pink Paislee prize ribbon cut file.

 

 

 

The speckled eggs had me thinking I needed to add little dots to the prize ribbons too!  The banners at the top of the mood board made me want to use the Color Wash vellum boarders!

 

 

And if you're wondering how to get the pleated look like the one I used on my backgrounds here, please head on over to my official post on the Pink Paislee blog!

As always, thanks for dropping in.  It really means a lot to me!

Have a fabulous day!

Hugs, Tegan 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Valentine's Inspired Layout!

Good day everyone!  Today I am sharing my Valentine's inspired layout using a non-Valentine's collection.  It was so easy to do... I just pulled out the neutral colors of cream and black.  And then I pulled out all of the pinks, reds, and teals of the collection too!  I used Pink Paislee's Hey Kid and Sentiment Series- and they worked really well on this Valentine's inspired layout about my pooch! 

 

 

I love the vellum banners like the ones shown here... They add just the right amount of interest to the page!  The other pieces are from the ephemera pack.

 

 

 

I placed one picture away from the group of photos for something just a little bit different.  I like the way it turned out!  

 

And I hope I have inspired you to look through your non-themed collections for products that can be used on a Valentine's layout!  As always, thanks for dropping in and have a great day!

Hugs, Tegan

 

 

 

 

 

Making a bold design on a layout

Good morning everyone!  Today I am excited to be sharing my very first layout for Pink Paislee as a member of their creative team!  Today post is all about making my favorite paper patterns a major focal point while not overshadowing the photos.  I used Pink Paislee's Hey Kid collection and I just love the bright colors and fun graphics!  Perfect for the design I had in mind! 

Hop on over to Pink Paislee to see how I created this fun and bold design!

I love using a bold page design like this to feature my favorite patterned papers.  Sometimes I find myself hoarding my favorite patterns and they never get used.  With this technique I will be sure to use more of my favorites!

And here are some close ups!

Thanks for stopping in!  I hope I have inspired you to use those favorite patterned papers and not stash them away!   Have a great day all!

Hugs, Tegan
