49 & Market | Echoes of Time | Giselle Homer

Hello Magpies,

This month I’m working with an unusual collection from 49 and Market. It’s called Echoes of Time & blends soft, pastel colours with steam punk illustrations. They’re also very imaginative & detailed.

REMEMBER THIS

This first layout features a photo of my Grandson visiting the London Transport Museum & was a perfect match!

I began by adding layers of patterned paper, cardstock & thin PET Tape to make a border around the photo.

Next, I chose some embellishments to make a cluster in the top right corner, adding a little tag for the date.

On the left of the photo I used a die-cut tag, threaded with string, with a selection of ephemera plus some cogs. I die cut a ‘Circle Web’ Die from Hey Little Magpie & coloured with Distress Inks in brown & green. Then I placed this behind the ephemera.

I added some more ephemera – there’s a good selection to choose from – to place at the lower right corner of the photo. With a phrase tag for a title, plus a chipboard word embellishment & more cogs I finished the layout with a little journalling.
