Stunning

Hello Again

Today I'm sharing another layout using the lovely,

Couture Creations Secret Graden Collection of Dies.

So lets go

These are a quick photo of the dies used in the project, less the sign post

Below are 2 different flowers I've made with the same Chevron Bloom Die,

the first one I cut 3 of the flowers, inked the edgse, place a spot of glue in the centres, using the
Turbo Glue Pen, after the glue has dried, spritz with water, scrunch each layer in to the centre, spritz between layers, sit aside to dry, then gently open up your flower as much as you like

2nd flower, cut 3 Chevron Blooms, and 3 each of the Layered Bloom die,

Again glue the layers of Chevron together, spritz, pinch each petal and fold up to the centre, then do the same with the Layered Bloom, top 3 layer, the bottom 3 just squeeze the in, place some glue in the centre of the Chevron, and add the Layered Bloom to the centre

Finished flower, just add some 2mm Gemstone to the middle, and touch the edges with

some Glitzn' Glamour

To make the bordered edge on the layout, I cut the Picket Fance out several times, in 3 different colours, then simply laid them over each other

Finished flower, here I've used the flourish, from the Butterfly Flourish Die Set, behind the flowers along with a favourate form the Everyday Essentials collection Strawberry Leaf

Here I cut one each of the 3 Letterboxes, in shades of purple, and again 3 in back, where I cut the roof of each one, and placed the over the purple Letterboxes, adding a few 2mm Crytal Gemstone, for that touch of bling, I also cut one of the birds from the Chirp Chirp die and add him to one of the Letterboxes

Using the Layered Buttetfly, in pinks and purple, I've scattered them over my layout, in doubles and singles, to keep the wings up, I use 3d Foan Dots, again for a liitle bling, add 2mm Gemstone to the body of the butterflies
