I don't know why I was at a loss at how to use this adorable "My Life in Pictures" filmstrip dieset. But once I tried this I realized how many ways it can be used. I think it's originally designed to be a great accent to a scrapbook or journal layout. You could add small photos to it or just use it as an accent and add a large photo to the layout.
I don't scrapbook anymore and I don't really like to use personal photos on Instagram or social media. I saw how a few others used it and decided it would be great with diecuts or stamped images. Then I got the idea to use it with some floral dies. These are by Susan Tierney-Cockburn for Spellbinders. I'll link them below under supplies.
I used pink as the color that bound these flowers together. Yellow always looks good with pink, so that's the background. I always give dimension to Susan Tierney-Cockburn's flowers, if you watch her YouTube videos for Spellbinders you will see how.
There are only 2 dies in this collection, they go with the Rosie Studio's Golden Afternoon Collection which has pretty papers and stickers. You can see the entire collection by clicking HERE.
As you can see, my flowers have a great deal of dimension. You could make them flat as well, especially the flower in the middle.I used Copic markers to add a bit of accent colors. Gold Stickles to the last flowers.
The Authentic sentiment is from the same collection, a BetterPress Plate and dies, I used gold Glimmer hot foil on it instead of ink.
