Paisley

Here is a close-up of paisley's I did on a page yesterday.


This is what it looks like on the page.
This was time consuming to do, but really easy. Very basic skills. I found a paisley pattern using Google image search. This is what I decided to use
I printed this on cardstock and copied in several different sizes. I picked colors from my Zig Markers that matched the striped paper. I am sure any marker or pen would work for coloring, just make sure it is acid free for scrapbooking purposes. Then the part that took awhile, cutting each one out. If you look at the close-up, some of them ended being up pretty tiny! I just glued them on the page, layering until I liked how it looked. I added bling brads to a few and used foam adhesive circles to make them stand up for a taller layer. VIOLA! Not to hard at all! The sketch I was using for inspiration http://letsscrap.ning.com/photo/2186252:Photo:300308 was a 2 page, so I used the left side. I HATE all of my circle cutters and punches, so I used the paisley's instead.

I have to go cook dinner, so for now
Cheers!
