Layout with Prima

Hi, here is another layout that I designed for the Paper Niche using their monthly kit.  This pic was also taken at the farm for the Johnson reunion.

Most of the paper I used on this layout is from Prima Marketing.  I also used my zutter distresser (yes noisy but efficient).  Notice how I "framed" my layout and mitred the corners then added eyelets.  Its an old trick I use to use from the old days ...

On the corner I used some Jenni Bowlin paper and diecut about 7 flowers, then glimmer misted them, stacked them and added a small brad in the middle.  Then I crunched them and heat set them dry.  I love the crunching part. 

I received a pack of pretty Prima buttons, tiles and flowers from my kit; so I stacked them in the corner.  I also added a strip of Jenni Bowlin towards the bottom of my layout to ground my page with the black.  This grouping also extends your field of vision, otherwise your eye would go to what is inside the "frame" especially since most of the colors are muted. 

Happy Scrappin and dont forget to go to the Paper Niche blog to see what the other ladies have designed for you.
