Scrapbook Page using Susan's Garden Flowers


My last project using Flowers from Susan's Garden, is a scrapbook page with more paper from the Introspection 6 X 6 paper pad from Prima, and Classy Cards N' Such.  This paper is so beautiful with all it's colorful flowers, it really gives your projects a touch of spring and summer. 



The arrangement of flowers are all from Susan's Garden. I was lucky enough to take a flower making class from Susan Tierney-Cockburn years ago, when she was still making her flowers from single metal paper punches. Of course, I had to buy many of them, and still have them in my stash. The violets, and the clay pot, along with the oak leaves are from the previous paper punches. The Dahlias are made from the smaller dahlia petals from the die set #SZ-658859 sold in the Classy Cards N' Such shop. I also used a sheet of Plum Iridescent- Curious Translucents paper #XP-37017950 sold in the CCNS shop, to accent the background of the flower arrangement against the floral scrapbook paper. To give the plum paper a little texture, I used the "Howdy" word die from Die-Versions, and a pair of deckled edged scissors to trim the paper edges and make the whole scrapbook page POP!

I submitted this project in the Classy Cards N' Such Challenge, click HERE to visit their challenge page to see other entries, and have a nice weekend.

  6. Great scrapbook page! I really like how you cut the blue background for placing your flowerpot! The blue pulls in the flowers from your page in the lower right corner, accentuates the blue in your flowers and I can pretend the pot is sitting on a rock in a little stream. If you listen quietly you can hear it... Anon
