FabScraps - Gentleman's Club Collection
FabScraps new Gentleman's Club collection may have undertones of a masculine collection BUT added color pops can transform this collection from strong masculine to vintage warmth. FabScraps new collection has some very fascinating chipboard pieces and coordinating journal images and also has some new stencils available. I used the Diamond DS008 but you can see all of them here.
The chipboard piece I used is the hot air balloon. It is topped with the coordinating journal piece to complete the vintage look of the balloon. I had an adorable vintage photo of the basket portion of a hot air balloon so I combined the two. You can find the image here at Magic Moonlight Free Images.
I finished the balloon with trims and banners.
I have included a complete set of detailed instructions at the end of this post along with a supply list and the link for the vintage images I used. They are restriction free since they are from the early 1900's.
Here is a closer look at the journal pocket watch from the The FabScraps Gentleman's Club Journal pack MC66001A. There are a number of choices in the pack that are so intricate and beautiful - just to make your selection difficult.
My final accent pieces below include a resin bird from Prima, and Prima's wood embellishments from the Anna Marie Collection.
You can get the image here at Magic Moonlight Free Images.
