Happy Saturday to you! Rhonda here to host the blog for you today.
I've got a project to share with you featuring the Quick Quotes's Stowaway collection. I just love the soft pretty colors of the line and they were perfectly matched to some vacation photos of a Ferry Boat ride that I had.
If you have a chance, be sure to check out our current Friday Challenge here. Add a bit of stitching to your project like I've done here today and enter!
In finishing the page, it felt just a touch plain or linear to me, so I added a pop of blue with the die cut circles to simulate bubbles in the water on the boat ride.
Next, I added the corrugated arrows to the top and placed just a few circles to add a splash of color and balance. A few pearls and enamel dots finished the page.

"Life is a Journey"
To create this page, I started with selecting my photos that I wanted to feature and printed them as a collage. The collage is then stitched down to the mat.
I selected a large piece of vellum from last years October Club Q kit which just so happened to be a bit larger than my matted photo, so I decided to layer it over the top of a variety of other pattern papers for a fun effect. I chose three pages from my Stowaway 6x6 Paper Pad, trimmed them so they were smaller than the vellum and arranged them.
Next, I added the envelope and cheese cloth, and selected my coordinating chipboard and titlework. I really wanted to keep this page soft and the focus to the photos, so I inked with Biscotti around the vellum and photo mat only. Some stitching added that little bit of texture.
