Hi. It's Aimee Matteucci. When I got word I’d be a guest designer, I went right out to get some new Making Memories stuff. I found a few of my favorite pieces that inspired me. I also went digging through my studio for Making Memories product. I was amazed at all the stuff I’d hoarded through the years! I couldn’t decide on one project so I made two. Here’s what I ended up with:
I’ve had these frames forever and finally had a spark of an idea. I made this for my daughter, who’s very attached to her old dog, and vice versa. Design tip: color your metal embellishments with alcohol inks to coordinate with your papers.
MM supplies: metal frames (year unknown), {note}worthy Addie Brocade Dot paper (2007), maroon flourish under title was cut from a page in the {note}worthy Spiral Journaling Book (2007), Paper Reverie Shimmer Alpha in brown (2010), pearl hearts are from Gem Collection – Brown (2009)
MM supplies: most of the patterned papers are from Je t’adore collection (2010), with NW Addie Diecut Flower (2007) pp under the title. I used a page from the Lovestruck Spiral Journaling Notebook (2010) for the heart shaped journaling area with Vine Cream cardstock (2004) layered over that – inked to show detail- and edged with scallop scissors.
Title alpha – Ready to Glitter/Alpha Classic (2006) was dusted with PearlEx in Antique Silver; Vintage Hip Trinket Pin (2005); Metal Hearts (year unknown) with eyelet backs, attached with a MM mini hammer; MM paper piercer was used to attach hemp cord along banner.
