Perfect pastels + vintage baby prints = pure heaven.  Or Prima's Heaven Sent collection, anyway!

This dreamy little layout started with a white base and some ink splatters.  Then, I layered on a  patterned paper from Prima's Heaven Sent collection.  I distressed the edges this paper to add texture as well.  I even used the little strips that get cut off at the top of the 12x12 sheets and layered them under some of the other papers and photo.  I hate wasting so this is a great way to use these strips up.


In fact, I keep just about any scrap that looks useful.  The lacy little strip of fussy cut paper was a small scrap I saved from another paper.  More on that in a minute.  After I layered the skinny strips over the base pattern paper, I brushed a light coating of white gesso over the paper strips to keep the multitude of patterns from getting overwhelming.  To add back in some dimension, I pressed some more gesso through a stencil.  Then, I added some yellow color mist to brighten it back up.


Next I matted the photo on some more Heaven Sent paper and tore the edges. I slipped another small piece of pattered paper in as well.  I fussy cut some flowers and the lace border from another set of papers--remember that little scrap I talked about earlier that I saved.  Waste not, want not!


Finally, I added some yellow trim and some flower clusters.  I topped it all off with a cute chipboard sticker, some crystals and a little journaling.
