Ephemera Love

Hello and good morning! ^__^

I'm Halak and today I have a layout to share with you that I made using the Papericious Ephemera Paper Collection & Die-cuts.

This layout is symbolic, the moments that comprise of our lives are like butterflies, always fluttering past us... not all are beautiful and stunning, there is an equilibrium, a balance of sorts.
But.. what you take from these experiences is your choice alone, so always choose to collect and think fondly of the happy memories that came across your way as beautiful moments.

In a nutshell, why be sad
when there's so much to be happy about? :)

These are the 5 sheets that I used to create my layout :

The Ephemera paper stack is super gorgeous, perfect for shabby chic, vintage looks but it's also got some subtle color... so you can mute or brighten up the color/s like I did in my layout.

This paper collection also has
co-ordinating die-cuts which match the pattern papers beautifully and are very budget-friendly.

Some cool bit of trivia... I noticed that one of the sheets in the Ephemera stack has this statement written in French...

"La beauté est dans les yeux de celui que regarde"

I do know a bit of french, and on translation, this statement means :

"Beauty lies in the eyes of the beholder."

Such a lovely thought. :)

Also one of the pattern papers from this set (the one on the extreme right in my picture featuring the papers) has patterned stripes running horizontally across the sheet and if you ask me, they do look like gorgeous pieces of washi tape onto pattern paper. (Well that's how I cut that sheet up and used it in my layout!)

All in all, a very versatile collection with a lot of components!

Hmm.. what is it that I hear? You'd like to see a close up picture...?

Of course I have a close up for you! Check it out :

And that's that! I hope you liked my project and enjoyed reading my little tid-bits and recommendations pertaining to this collection!

Till next time dear friends, have a lovely day!
