Little Dancer - Scraps Of Elegance -Case file #42



Welcome to CSI Case file #42, Sponsored this month by Scraps Of Elegance.

It's so easy to scrap within a color palette that is comfortable, and typical for us.  Typical for me would be creams, browns, oranges and rusts.  Not blue and red.  While certainly a gorgeous palette, I fear red and blue in my scrappy world. 

I don't really know why, but those are difficult colors for me to use.

I had to throw off my kid gloves and do a paper smackdown with a whole bunch of molding paste slathered all over the page, like the frosting on these cupcakes.  Now that was a ton of fun.  I sure do love molding paste, but fluffy sugary frosting is still king for me.  

I dug into my Scraps Of Elegance  retired kits to find the Carta Bella Beautiful Moments collection was just what I needed as my base.  Then I added some other embellishments from retired kits. The Kaisercraft Miss Match Collectables Doily die cut, the My Minds Eye Twine from Indie Chic collection.





Little Dancer
This is a photo of my niece that I took for he dance recital in May.  She is 5.  She is doing one of her dance recital poses for me.

You are small, yet you are as beautiful as a butterfly fluttering in the fields. 
You are small, yet you bring the biggest smile to our faces.
You are small, yet our love for you is larger than the biggest mountain.


I used the Dusty Attic Chicken Wire 12x12 DA0457.    I chose to leave it neked underneath the slop of molding paste I laid down. 








Evidence 
•   flowers
•   texture/modeling paste


Testimony
•   Inspiration Words: small, better/best choose/choice, daily-- use these as inspiration for your journaling, not just as a title   I chose small. 


You are small, yet you are as beautiful as a butterfly fluttering in the flields. 
You are small, yet you bring the biggest smile to our faces.
You are small, yet our love for you is larger than the biggest mountain.

 Thanks for spending time here.  

Scraps of Elegance and create something beautiful today.

  1. Fantastic. I love the chicken wire. Not many people can put flowers and chicken wire together and have it look so wonderful.
