My last DT Project for Megs Garden

I have loved being on this team, the products are gorgeous to work with and their papers just divine.

So this is my very last post for Meg's Garden as part of the team but I do look forward to using their products again in the near future. And you never know I may just be back Meg has kindly offered me a guest spot in the future.

"Signature book"


I was inspired to create this after watching a you tube video from Scraps of Darkness kits.


Beautiful transparency butterfly.


Another gorgeous Transparency a antique chair.


Meg's garden paper used as the background Green Toile, I covered the entire book in this paper and cut the white flowers out and spread them through out the flower cluster.


I cut a couple of flowers of a fairy viola stem in pale pink and forget me nots in cream were added amongst the flowers.


Here you can see the hand cut flowers from the paper and a velvet flower poking out from the stem above.


The spine was made using masking tape and glimmer mist.


The back was covered in the paper.


A few cut out flowers also added to the back.


Plain paper added to the inside using satin seam binding, which I also used to tie the book shut.

Memory Maze DT



January at Memory Maze if celebration month and although my page is not really a celebration of sorts, it is for me as its a celebration of noooooo flowers. That's right it has been a long time since I last created something without flowers.



Memory Maze chicken wire, cogs have been treated with gesso and rusting powder and a sweet little bird has been inked with mix'd media ink.


More chicken wire left raw.





Sign post was treated with gesso then texture paste, I then stamped a woodgrain stamp into the wet texture paste, once dry I used a mix'd media ink to colour it.


Jailed frame has been gesso'd then embossed only on some of it.

Memory Maze products used
