Love You - Album Cover and Charms

Hi Audrey here to share another one of the NEW Create-an-Album's with you. Just sharing the cover with you this post, this album cover is the Tall Chunky Album Cover, in White. 

I've created a detailed video on how both the cover, the charms/dangles and the covered beads are made. You can find it on the HERE

Spectrum Gardenia is such a beautiful bright collection and against the white of the album cover it looks amazing.

As usual most collections from 49 and Market work so well together. 

Here I've used Laser cut elements and chipboard from Gardenia and rub on transfers from ARToptions Rouge and Spectrum Sherbet.

I covered the large beads using paper from Spectrum Gardenia - 6x8 Classics Collection Pack and painted the bead caps to match, then added matching coloured beads from my stash.
Matching cord, Spectrum Gardenia - Butterfly Laser Cut Elements, Spectrum Gardenia - Chipboard Set and a glue gun helped the dangles look so good on the spine. 

Don't forget *You can see a video of how I made the dangles and decorated the album front, on the 49 and Market YouTube channel*

Curious Kitty

Hi there Audrey here and this is Melody my very curious Kitty. Her eyes are just amazing and she's the tiniest little girl. She actually came to us as a foster kitten and we fell in love with her and officially adopted her ourselves. 

So to make those eyes of hers pop off the page even more I just had to use similar tones from 49 and Markets Nature Study Collection.

I started off matching the tones of the photograph by choosing a base paper from the Nature Study - 12x12 Coloured Foundations, Coloured Foundation 1 and it certainly helped the photo pop. From there it did become a predominately yellowy green layout, which I loved in the end. Those amazing large green toned Nature Study - Laser Cut Wings (butterflies) almost stole the show on the page. How fantastic are they? 
The little printed tickets from Nature Study - General Laser Cut Elements made a cut little border along with strips of Nature Study - Soar, roughly ripped on the edge made nice highlights on the page. I added a mix of rub on transfers to the top and bottom of the page.
To finish off I made a little collection of flowers and laser cuts to the left of the photo.
