Remember This- Dusty Attic

 


Hello Creative Friends and welcome back to my blog today. I am sharing a mixed media project with you designed for Dusty Attic. This is a photo of my hubby, which i know i have scrapbooked before, but it is such a great photo on our beach and i was moved to create another project.


For this i used a MDF board, glued two together and added some mediums, heat setting in between to achieve the look i wanted. I wanted the background to resemble old walls with lots of plaster texture. 

I cut apart the large skeleton clock i have left ( one of my favorite pieces. Added in some fish net, there is one gear in there ( im running low on those (wink)) and the largest anchor i had. I did use the Prima marketing mould and created a large anchor using resin.  



The anchor was painted and colors added until i achieved the look i was going for. I hope you like my project today and will see you next time.

Wide Open Spaces - 49 and Market

 Hello friends and welcome to my blog today as i share a project designed for 49 and Market. This past week our grand children were visiting from southern Ontario and we all had such a great time. 



The grands really enjoyed being so close to the beach and my daughter in law grabbed this photo of our grandson walking down to the beach with one of our dogs, Sadie, a 11 month old German Shepherd. Sadie seemed to really take a liking to Judah and followed him everywhere. 


The Curators Meadow Collection was perfect for this photo, i mean those mushrooms, like seriously!! SO perfect for a woodsy project! I used a;; the mushrooms but two from the laser cut sheet, layering them using foam adhesive, on top of each other. 




Using some of the rub ons i added those to add more detail to the layout. The ephemera was perfect for layering around the photo which i added a stitched frame to. Tucking in some of the larger photo mats under the photo mats. 



I absolutely love how this layout turned out with all those gorgeous mushroom laser cuts, they really suit this photo and I hope you give these cuts a try on your next project.

This Day - 49 and Market

 Hello Creative Friends and welcome back, today i am sharing a layout designed for 49 and Market. This is designed using the gorgeous Viken Collection. 


The photo is of my hubby taken in Panama City Florida years ago on  family vacation. I used the frame from the Ephemera Bits to Frame the photo and build my florals around. The twilight florals are perfet for this collection. 



I used some tags from the chipboard Tag Set as well as the Tag Set to add layers. 

The laser cut pieces i used to further frame my photo,  adds a great layer on which to build your flower clusters and the leaves peak out enough to give more color and contrast. 


Thank you for dropping by today I hope my project has inspired you to create with Viken. 

Until Next time Happy Scrapping

Happy Day - Elizabeth Crafts

 



Hello friends and welcome back to my blog today sharing a project for Elizabeth Craft Designs using Florals 11, as my flowers for this gorgeous card. 


Coloring the florals from the center out this time using Victorian Velvet Distress Ink and setting stamens from Dress my Craft in the center. 


I wanted to add some stamped leaves in there and used the Kindness Stamp and Die and stamped out some leaves and the dandelion looking image using peeled paint, die cut them and just left them white, what a great detail and layer they add to this card, don't you think?



The stitched circle, i backed with acetate and cut the intricate die from The Book out twice, cutting off the outside edge and lining the two die cuts up to fill the circle which worked perfectly. 


I decided i wanted even more detail and used the vine from the Strawberry set, colored with with Peeled paint Distress ink and i gave the tip a bit of shaping. 

Once i was all done, i decided to tone the color down a bit by using a bit of snow paste and white acrylic splatters. 


Thank you for dropping by today, I hope i have inspired you to create some florals. Until Next Time, Happy Scrapping!
