We R Memory Keepers 'Precious Metals' lines of patterned paper are like nothing else on the market at the moment. The soft yet strong colours are not only appealing and versatile but importantly they can happily take a back seat, allowing your photos to remain the focus. Not just that though, but these superb quality papers have actual metallic shots running through the patterns, subtle and elusive to photograph, but in real life providing a soft gleam when the paper catches the light on certain angles.
We have a heap of stunning examples in this post from our Design Team, from We R Memory Keepers Design Team and from around the scrapping world to share. Enjoy.
Aussie Scrap Source's black cardstock is the perfect backdrop for the bright colours in the Silver Lining papers. Maxine used the swirl rub-ons behind the Jenni Bowlin bird and on its wing. She added doodles on top of the bird rub-ons for additional decoration. The Queen & Co large brads make the perfect flower centre, adding dimension to any layout.
For this double layout, Mel has drawn around the edge of Silver Lining rubon letters using a black pen to make the title stand out just that little bit more. The flower tops have been hand cut from Silver Lining Brilliance patterned paper and the stems simply machine stitched into position. The Silver Lining Metal Hardware (brads, photo corners and buckle) were added to finish off the layout nicely. A quick and easy way to complete a double page layout.
Shades of pink don't always have to be for girly pages! Mel has had fun creating distressed circles with a splash of stitching to convey a happy and upfting layout that has turned out completely the opposite to her title 'Too scary'. A mix of Silver Lining Metal Hardware and rubons have finished off the page beautifully.
We fell in love with this layout created by the talented Aussie scrapbooker, Cathy Bodini. Cathy has covered chipboard letters using the Silver Lining patterned papers and used dimensional magic over the top for a nice glossy finish. She has combined the metal hardware and alphabet rubons from the range perfectly to complete the layout.
Such a sweet layout by Cindy Tobey. Here's what Cindy had to say about the gorgeous We R Memory Keepers' new metal range on her layout - "Okay, I have to say I LOVE We R's new metal products...Yum! Used one of their metal alphas, metal rub ons, metallic ribbon and paper". We have to agree with Cindy here, they are seriously yum! Thanks for sharing your layout Cindy.
The WeRMemoryKeepers Pewter Press range is the perfect colours to comliment this photo Nic Howard has of her sons. The bright papers contrast with the colours in her photo with subtle patterns just to add a point of difference. Nic curled the edges of some of the circles, she added mini sprinkles, heidi swapp lettering and some Basicgrey ribbon to finish the layout nicely.
This funky project not only makes great use of the Pewter Press papers and embellishments, but you can recreate it yourself with this step by step instruction download from We R Memory Keepers. How cool is that?
Two gorgeous layouts and cute tags and wrappers with thanks to the We R Memory Keepers Design Team.
The We R Memory Keepers 'Coppered Out' range is just stunning. Jaimie kept it to a minimum with a cluster of paper and embellishments that sets off the photo of her cousin and his wife. The less is more approach works perfectly on this page.
You actually can't help but say 'fabulous' at these projects. We thank the We R Memory Keepers Design Team for letting us share them with you.
The gorgeous colours in the Vinatge Brass papers were perfect for these fun photos of Caz's Daughter and her friends decorating her birthday cake.
As the photos are quite busy Caz used the plain side of the papers for the background and handcut a large flower shape from the striped paper and some of them small flowers from the floral paper. She arranged them around the photos and added some beautiful Vintage Brass rub-on swirls. The smaller title letters are Chi Chi Vintage Brass rub-on alphas.
Another two wonderful soft layouts making good use of the slightly whimsical Vintage Brass papers from the We R Memory Keepers Design Team.
This layout by the very talented Lisa Garay deservedly jumped out at us, not only because of the stunning photos but because of the gorgeous colour combination. What's particularly exciting about this layout that you may not notice at first glance is that Lisa has used patterned papers from all four of the Precious Metal ranges, showing that although there are four very disparate colour stories, they can also be mixed and matched for a fabulous effect. Notice also the eyelet detail along the torn and folded paper and the brads decorating the felt flower.
Finally, we loved these layouts by Stephanie Gianniny because of the beautiful simplicity of them. The designs she has used keeps the photos as the focal point of the layouts while the patterned papers and embellishments from We R Memory Keepers 'On the Dot' and 'Boho Chic' ranges simply enhances them.
