{Give it some Zing!} Part 2
Having had a little boy, a lot of my pages now feature slightly more manly colour combinations, so sometimes I like to go back to my ‘pre-baby’ photo drawer and pick out something else to scrap! I relish the opportunity to do a girly page now & again, and our wedding photos are the perfect chance to do just that.
I chose this time to write about my choice of perfume for the big day – it took quite a few testers and a lot of sniffing to pick out the perfect one! Unlike some people who have a ‘signature scent’, I have a whole basket full of different perfumes, so I wanted a new one for our wedding. Eventually I chose this one – ‘Romance’ by Ralph Lauren. I love that whenever I wear it now, the smell takes me back to that day, and that was something I wanted to document.
I’ve used Zing! powders on a little wooden heart shape under my title here – this time I went for the silver glitter finish, which gives a beautiful subtle sparkle to the piece, perfect for this page. I also used white and blush powders with stamps above and below my paper block. First I stamped the image with Versamark, and embossed using the white opaque powder – I love this finish – glossy and a nice crisp white. To add a bit of interest I then went over a few of the dots with a versamark pen, and embossed over the top of the white with ‘Blush’ – a pale pink. The versamark pens are great for allowing you to add a bit of colour to exactly where you want it, you could even emboss your own handwriting!
