Apricot Fool Paper Pack 12x12"Completed by Gwyneth George

I took copies of the backgrounds in this pack, together with designer resource digi cup396488_1056 into one of my graphics packages. I resized, moved around, etc., until I had an 8" square card front built up on my working area. I also put a second panel of one of the backgrounds I used onto the rest of the page. I printed my design off onto 300gsm Super Smooth cardstock and cut out the card front before colouring in the digi using my ProMarkers. I went round the edge of the panel using Spiced Marmalade Distress Ink. I used the extra panel of background from my prinout to cut out some flower layers using some flower dies. I also cut out some white flower layers with the same dies and used the same Distress Ink to tip the petal edges. I made an 8" square base card from 2 x A4 Ivory cardstock and stuck my card front directly to this. I used a ball tool to shape all the flower layers and used glue gel to build them up and stick to the card front. I used some midget gems on the flower centres, the necklace the girl is wearing, and on a couple of corners of the background "mats".

This pack has a nice selection of suble apricot shades which will be usefull for lots of projects.
