Hello Beautiful – Rachel Lowe:

Today I have my second guest DT layout and I have gone super floral and super pretty. There is no better way to add more pretty than adding some sequins!

I have used a wonderful wreath cut file (Paige Evans Silhouette Design store) and so I could fill one of the flowers with sequins I cut two exactly the same size. I paper pieced the back of the flowers with patterned paper on the first cut file. I then brushed glue onto the largest flower and added my sequins gently pressing them flat and left until dry. I then added my second cut file and glued only on the flower parts so the leaves look like they are floating.

I have used the wonderful Painted Gardens sequin mix which went perfectly with this collection (Cocoa Vanilla Studio Bohemian Dream).

I then added random sequins around my key embellishments such as the bird, feather and butterfly.

I have sewn on some of my embellishments to add texture. I finished off splattering lightly some black colour shine.

I so love this colour combo and my sequin bling!!!!!!!!

Here are some close up photos for you.

Thank you for stopping by today and I hope this layout has inspired you to get out your sequins and add some bling to your day!
