I stamped the woman on gray Kraft paper and colored with Prismacolor pencils. I stamped her again on patterned paper for her outfit. I joined and fussy cut all the pieces and played with potential backgrounds. After playing, I stamped the candelabra on a plain paper from the pad and added script for the background and distressed the edges. I backed that with another sheet from the pad that I used the journal box stamp on and then a solid gray paper.
I took another paper from the pad to stamp the chairs on. I mixed lilac and seedless preserves oxides and a white Tattered Lace spray to stamp the stamp in and then stamp that on the paper. I distressed that paper and then used a Sissix Lace trim die on gray paper to make a border. I adhered a paper from the pack and the chairs paper to the cardstock. I then stamped the bees and ticket onto the backside of the scraps from the pad and trimmed those to use as Ephemera in the background. I added part of a doily behind the ticket and punched a hole in the end to add ribbon. I added keyboard washi to the bees.
After playing with all the pieces I decided to give the romantic impression of a hall like for a concert or show...or whatever, using the candelabra framed alone. (Watching too many Hallmark movies I think!) So, instead of framing the woman in a box, I decided to give her an outline shadow to make her stand out. After trying some solid sentiments I decided to use a sentiment on vellum on the bottom left. I added a fussy cut crown from one of the kits and added crystal dots around and about, including giving her earrings!
Okay, I freely admit, this one is over the top again. But, my imagination just rolls with the ideas to create a theme and I’m driven to complete it! If nothing else, I hope you enjoy the romance of it!
