Julie Fei-Fan Balzer celebrates a visit to the Decordova Sculpture Garden with her latest design! The tiny photos show off lots of shots of the garden, while Julie mixed in small pieces of papers, felt (Felt Gate #526627) and gesso-painted flowers. (Gesso is a great art medium to use on all products.)
Tip: this is a great way to use up left-over scraps of felt, papers and flowers. Julie rolled the paper up to create paper "beads" from her scraps! (Angelique Collection #810306, Flirty Little Secret
#812768 and #812713, Coquette Collection #602000, Rue 88 Collection #602055)

Magic to our lives is a gorgeous layout created by Malin Dahlstrom. Malin started with Angelique, Coquette, Rue 88 & Morning Song papers (810405, 810306, 602000, 602093), added lots of luscious Prima flowers and tucked in a Say It In Crystals swirl (522889) for the extra touch of "magic"!
Malin is a pro at mixing patterned papers from various lines...Her tip: just use a neutral paper between the busiest patterns to give your eye a resting place! For this design Malin used a painted piece of corrugated paper, which adds tons of texture and a subtle color, to make the other papers and the flowers pop!
