Another challenge from the Online Scrapbook Weekend. This one is called 'Starting Point Challenge'.  Sponsored by Basic Grey, Shimelle gave us the challenge to create a layout that starts from a set design. Use any papers or colours you like, but before you add any pictures, start with that large box of paper in the background, a wide vertical strip plus a narrow stripe and a horizontal block. Then complete a layout! You can use the page above as inspiration, but it’s not required. See where this starting point sends you!

So with my Basic Grey Wassail papers I started from here following the basic design:

Then added my photo and embellishments etc. and ended up here:

I used Wassail papers - spiced tea, noel, turtle doves and sleigh ride. Although these are from a Christmas collection there are plenty of patterned and plain papers that will work for other occasions.

A photo of Jessica at the wedding a few weeks age. I added pearls, gems, perfect pearls, lace, ribbon roses, BG Chipboard stickers, element stickers and alphas and American Craft alphabet stickers. I also used a journalling block stamp, Memento Tuxedo ink pad and Colorbox chalk inks.
