Just catching up a bit now that the holidays are over...finally finished this layout about my first 10K last November. :) (Shhh! We'll just ignore the many other layouts that remain unscrapped, lol!)
I love how smoothly this layout came together by simply tweaking the bits and pieces of Ormolu products that I had sitting on my desk. In particular, I cut the arrow out of a fabric swatch and stapled that on a trimmed package tag...curved the top of a negative number tag (just for fun)...and added a piece of flair to a flapper which sits above a remnant from that trimmed package tag and has a scrap of paper chain.
My favorite parts are the trimmed fabric arrow and the kraft on kraft number package tag (subtle but impactful when popped up on foam dots). What are your favorite ways to tweak Ormolu products?
Great page Amanda, fab details!
