Julie: Scrapbook page using the 'Lecon de Choses' range

Hello again.

As you probably know at 3DJean there's always a range of papers on offer which are not the usual brands we scrappers see week in week out. There's always something different on offer - like the French range 'Lecon de Choses', which I've used on my page today, and which has is a vintagey, shabby-chic feel in shades of palest greens, muted creams and pastel florals [all double-sided].

You can see the full range of here, and here's my take on it:

The vintage bird design, tucked behind my photograph, is taken from a sheet called 'Drawing' which consists of 16 idividual squres - reminiscent of vintage photos - filled with beautiful birds, cages and nest illustrations:

The button on the left is one of the range of decorative buttons in stock here.

I've combined this with two of the pretty florals from the range, in little strips across the page. The larger print is 'A Bit of Fashion' [which has a gorgeous bird on the reverse ... which I made sure to avod when cutting these strips out, so I can use it on something else!]:

While the smaller design - which reminds me of a Liberty print - is called 'Horizons':

If you haven't had a browse through the 12x12 paper section of the shop lately, and if you like something a bit different [dare I say 'that you won't see on a million other layouts'?], then it's definitely worth a look!

Thanks for visiting us today, I'll be back here in 3 weeks time, until then you can visit me on my blog.

Julie
