Mireille- **BASICGREY**

A beautiful day in spring in Hollands Amusement Park "De Efteling." Amber was in her new dress, celebrating my birthday.
I so enjoyed looking at her face while she gazed at all the magic in the park. The Fairies, the goose parade, the fairytale figures walking around. I am so happy I was able to catch that gaze on film.

SUPPLIES
Cardstock: Bazzil
Patterned Paper: BasicGrey- Eva line
* duchess
*monarchy
*grandiose
*extravagance
*pannier
Letterstickers: BasicGrey
Rubons: BasicGrey
Die cut label: BasicGrey
Ink: Colorbox
Colorpencils: Derwent
Glimmermist: Tattered Angels
Flowers: Prima Marketing Inc.
Bling: Prima Marketing Inc.

HOW TO
Use two solid colors of the BasicGrey paper.
Cut a 25 by 25 square out of the center of the brown solid paper.
Use this as a mat for your picture. Place the picture inthe left upper corner and add a strip of patterned paper on the right side and one at the bottom.
Cut the pink solid paper in a 29 by 29 cm square and place the brown square in the right upper corner.
Then place the pink 29cm x 29cm on top of the leftover 30cm by 30 cm paper.
Before you adhere don't forget to use a corner rounder and ink on the edges.
Cut the peacock out of the patterned paper and adhere it at the bottom of your project slightly over your photo.
Place 3 prima's in the left upper corner and add bling.
Place the die cut label under the flowers, I made a bling border around it.
Spray some Glimmermist on white cardstock. This will be used for the journaling. Print your journaling with the Adorable Font and cut journaling strips. The butterflies where made with the cuttlebug and white cardstock. Also sprayed those with Glimmermist.
Adhere the journaling strips on the patterned paper. Leave space for the title in 3 parts.
Place the butterflies above your text.
I used soft pencils to outline the title by creating a soft shadow.
Use the rubon at the bottom of your page and your project is finished.

**I used Adobe's Lightroom for the picture.
