Hi friends, Steph Devlin here, just wanting to share some projects that I have been working on using the new releases from Prima Marketing.
I created this layout for the most recent CHA, using the beautiful Pixie Glen Line, and custom coloring the large Fleur De Lys flowers with Glimmermist. I sprayed these delicate flowers with Chalkboard Mists, because I love the chalky shabby chic finish those colors give the flowers.

This second layout shows the diversity of the Printery Patterned Papers and how with a little bit of color, black can showcase beautifully any color or B&W photographs that you have. You will find that if you use a color frame, the colors within will just seem to merge and flow onto the photo mat whereas a black frame will contain the image so it doesn't allow the eye to wander. Black also seems to that provides perfect base to showcase a pop of color - as you can see from the hybrid flowers just under the balloon.

For this third project I just grabbed a shabby chic teapot that I have have been wanting to alter for while. (It goes perfectly with the tea & cup project I altered last month). I love finding shabby chic household items and altering them with Prima's beautiful flowers, trinkets, pearls and other findings. The stunning crown trinket was just perfect for the lid, and just seem to finish off the project.

I love playing with shapes, and the hexagon is such a interesting shape to create with. Shapes are so visually stunning grouped together in multiple numbers, and the Pixie Glen soft colors and rose images seem to balance the harshness of the lines that make up the shape of the hexagon.
