Spellbinders Pieces of Life Layout Tutorial

Hello friends, thank you for stopping by today!  I am have a tutorial for Spellbinders to share with you today - a layout - I love using Spellbinders Dies on layouts - they add so much and definitely help us to personalise our layouts. 


I don't usually like to scrapbook photos of myself but as the 'Memory Keeper' of the family I need to make sure I am included somewhere - and I knew which dies I wanted to use with this photo taken by my DH quite a few years ago - you can see how easy it is as you follow along with the Step by Step Tutorial.

2. Lightly sand around the embossed edges of the photo using a sanding block.
3. Layer the photo onto Corrugated card board using strong tape.

9. Cut/emboss two Textured Flowers Etched Dies #2 and four #1 (#1 being the smallest) using cream card stock paper; followed by two sets of small leaves.
10. Sponge the centre of  the flowers using Golden Glitz Ink; layer the flowers using 3D Foam Squares onto the lower left side of the photo
