"Forever and Always" By Kerrie Barnes

 Hello everyone.  Today I have a layout to share using the beautiful Country Garden Collection from iCraft.



I began by choosing two different papers from the collection.  I cut the flower panel from the bottom of the striped paper and glued it to the top of the damask or main page.  I then tore the bottom of the damask sheet and added the stripes from the other sheet of paper that I cut the flower panel from, to the bottom of the damask sheet.  I adhered that together with double sided tape, then added a backing board to the entire project.  The backing board was just a piece of cardboard from an old box.




I took iCraft wooden embellishment i388 and painted it with iCraft Palm Tree Chalk Paint.  After that dried, I added iCraft Gold Rush Metallic Wax to the very edge of the embellishment.  I chose a photo of my sister and her kids, added cardboard to the back for height, then layered the embellishment on top of the photo.




I glued the photo and embellishment down then fussy cut flowers and leaves from the iCraft Country Garden Elements Sheet.  I layered those under and over the photo and added in flowers from my craft stash.




Using iCraft Gold Rush Metallic Wax, I coated iCraft wooden embellishment i141, and glued it to the top of my flowers.




I decided to add a couple of iCraft Chippings #10017 to the layout as well, after coating them in iCraft Gold Rush Metallic Wax.




I hope you enjoyed this layout, and as always, thank you for visiting my corner of the iCraft blog.  Until next time, stay safe and well.  Kerrie xx.
