Petaloo & QQ Day 4

Petaloo & Quick Quotes Blog Hop

DAY 4

(even more projects & prizes)

Title: Updo by JEN

Techniques: I chalked everything with Mocha Mama chalk ink. I just got back from the Quick Quotes Private Reserve in Dallas where Michelle (DT and QQ Teacher) taught us how to make some super cute photo corners! To make these, you will need a piece of rectangle shaped paper that is twice as long as it is tall (for instance; 2” long by 1” tall). Take the top two corners and fold them down to meet in the middle to form a tent shape. For this layout, I had the “seam” facing outward and punched 2 holes in each flap and tied it with ribbon to hold it closed. You can also create a seamless look and glue the photo corners in place with the seam down.

I also used a transparency that we received in one of our Private Reserve layout classes. The stripe with the quote along the top is sooo cute and matched the Julie Je t'aime Paperline. To attach the transparency, I applied adhesive along the darkest parts of the image so the adhesive would not show through.

Check out all of the fab Petaloo flowers that I used on my layout! These flowers are so easy to work with. The smaller flowers already have an adhesive foam backing, so applying them to your layout is really quick and easy. The yellow border flowers are also Petaloo and can be applied as a strip to create a border (as I did on my left hand page) or they can be cut apart to create single page elements. I applied the border with Beacons 3 in1 Glue.

Altered Box & Card by LISA

I created this card with the Julie Je t'amie papers, QQ chalking ink in Tahiti & Purple passion, and Petaloo flowers. I used my Grand Caliber machine by Spellbinders to cut & emboss my 'happy birthday' tag.

I just bought a new flat iron and decided to keep the box it came in and alter it. Right now it is storing my other flowers but I may use it as a gift box for an upcoming birthday. This was created with Julie Je T'amie Quick Quotes papers & Tahiti chalking ink. Then I finished it off with 'gorgeous' Petaloo flowers and ribbon.
