Good afternoon creative friends, welcome back to my blog. We had a two day ice storm here in northern Ontario this past weekend which...
HI Friends and welcome to the Mood board Challenge for May for Dusty Attic and my take on the Challenge.
Last month i did a project on a large record album and i really enjoyed creating on a circle layout instead of the normal square 12 x 12, so i thought i would try something similar for another project.
The mood board this month is filled with pinks and darker greens
and i have a layout to share with you.

I started by making the large skeleton clock frame the base for my layout, tracing it out on heavy chipboard and then cutting a circle out of chipboard and pattern paper

I cut out some pieces of numbers from the large number panel and gessoed them then used some paints from my water color palette to add a bit of color to work with the mood board colors

you can see one of the groups of numbers i have cut out of the large panel, i added one group at the 3 and another at the 7, no specific reason, just seemed to be the best fit to enhance all the paper layers i had and leave enough white space.

I have run out of leaves and had the large floral frame set, so i cut apart the leaves on the large panel and used them to go in as a layer around the flowers. I love dimension and thought the photo would look better on a reverse shadow frame so i created one and strengthened it with chipboard

the title, i started it out with being white, but it seemed to get lost on the photo so i gessoed it over with black gesso and love that it pops for me.
I hope i have inspired you to create something for this months challenge.
