These photos of Bryan and Kelsey all ready for prom were so beautiful. They are a treasure and I am so happy we have them! These two pages "go" together so I will put them in the same post.

"Dancing in the Park"
Kelsey's
family had unique ideas for setting up photo
scenarios, and some very memorable photos were taken at Centennial Park before
heading to the Annapolis Mess for Prom. The photos turned out beautifully!
June 24, 2014
For this LO, I used a sheet of CTMH patterned paper with a subtle peacock feather design on it. I'd been hoarding it since September 2010, awaiting a "special" purpose. It's from the 2010 'Magnifique' collection! Well, in these Prom LOs, I'd say that this paper found its purpose!
Journaling was done on a scrap piece of CTMH Crystal Blue CS, using the Script MT Bold font.
The "lovely" lettered banner pieces were from a set of CTMH embellishments for the 'Balloon Ride' collection. That paper collection was released in 2014. :)
The turquoise sequins came from the more recent CTMH 'Florence' (2016) collection.
Brads "bashed" included traditional round brads from CTMH and Bazill, plus musical notes (from HOTP) and silver star brads (unknown source).
The large musical note was created by my scrappy/crafty friend Pam Sandy ages ago. She and her spouse had a small powdercoat business at the time and made a variety these for sale. I had been hoarding this, too, just waiting for the perfect layout to use it on! I added some black Waxy Flax for the top of this embellie as there was a hole there
The acetate music transparency was created by Hambly. (I miss them!) I just cut what I needed, as I needed it, from a larger sheet. I only have a small piece of this left now! I secured it to the LO with tiny CTMH brads.
The old Victrola was a "Thank you" sticker I had purchased as part of a set at Dollarama. I cannot tell you how long ago THAT was! LOL I cut the "THANK YOU" part off, and used the sticker without it. I just tucked the sticker into the cluster. It seemed perfect there!
Flowers used came from my stash (I think they were all from Prima!)

I also added a few tiny black tendrils peeking out from under the flowers. These are rub-ons from Bazzill- would you believe the date on the package says 2006?? LOL!
Three wee little sparkly puffy "leaf" stickers finished the page. They are from the CTMH embellishment roster way back in winter 2014!

more beautiful photos of Kelsey and Bryan at Centennial Park before Prom. The
light at this time of day really accentuated the gorgeous colour of Kelsey's
gown!

For this LO, I bashed a very special piece of paper from the 'Magnifique' collection, which was released by CTMH in 2010. I felt that Kelsey's beautiful Prom gown 'deserved' to be set off by this stunning peacock paper!
I used Stickles in Mermaid,Turquoise and Diamond to accentuate the peacock's plumage. The Diamond Stickles are a fave of mine as they reflect any colour that they have been applied over!
I also used up another Bazzill chipboard key and used Copics to colour it. I tied it off with some black Waxy Flax.
Then, I layered a small metal key over the chipboard one and added some flowers, brads and gemstones/sequins to the cluster.
I finished the page with a wood veneer arrow that pointed to Kelsey and Bryan's picture and said "Love it".
There you have it! A two-pager featuring the beautiful peacock paper and a beautiful couple on Prom night.
Thanks for peeking at my layouts today. I'm so glad you came by!!
