Such a Great Day to Remember - Dusty Attic

Hello lovelies!

I am back with another project using gorgeous Dusty Attic chipboard. This time I have gone with a very masculine layout - and I was really pleased about how the chipboard turned out. I love that one can use so many different products on chipboard and it just looks amazing! Here is my layout .....

My gorgeous son - one of the rare opportunities that I get to take a photo of him. Here we were away on a family weekend away and met up with a German tourist who was touring through New Zealand on his bike. So of course boys being boys with their toys - my son just had to have a moment on the bike!

And perfect Dusty Attic cog chippies that enhance any male layout!

I have a paint set that actually give this perfect rusty look and it also has the texture of rust. The chippies look amazing!

I have used Graphic 45 A Proper Gentleman paper range to create this layout. The scientific MacMillan publication paper and the clock comes from the 49 and Market Vintage Remnants Laser Cut sheet no 1, and the rest of the papers from Graphic 45.

I have layered the papers, photos and chipboard between foam tape

For the frame of the clock I have used the negative piece of chipboard between the circular chains

I really love how this chipboard looks rusted

Absolutely Beautiful - Dusty Attic May Moodboard

Hello Scrappy friends

OH MY! The Dusty Attic moodboard for May is just absolutely beautiful. I love, love these beautiful colours - so soft and pretty.

 Isn't it beautiful? And here is my take on the moodboard

I so loved putting this layout together. I used a page from the 49 and Market Reflections range - using the reverse side of the Awakenings page, I prepared the page by first applying clear gel medium. I then used the 12x12 tile mania stencil and added texture paste to the background. I then made up a mixture of Perfect Pearls Intereference Violet and water and splattered this on the page, plus I also watered down the Tim Holtz Distress Ink Dusty Concord and also splattered this on the page. Using a dark grey ink, I then randomly stamped with a script stamp.

I have used Creative Expressions Gilding Polish to colour all my chipboard. The ivy leaves are off the ivy borders chipboard. I have cut up these pieces so that I was able to tuck these pieces under my flower clusters. These were coloured in various shades of lilac, purple and blue.

I have used paper flowers from 49 and Market Reflections laser cut sheet. These have been cut, curled and raised in order to give them dimension

Once I have added all my elements I have added pearls, and muslin cloth to the flowers. I also added Stickles to the centre of each of the white flowers and to the butterfly. I have water down Tim Holtz Distress Ink Dusty Concord and Weathered Wood, and lightly added colour round the edges of my elements and some of the corners of the layout.

These are the Dusty Attic products that I have used:

White with 1 May Challenge

Hello to a new month, which means a new challenge over at White ... with 1. And this month is the delicious colour of Chocolate Kisses ..... yummy! And the most gorgeous and adorable moodboard

You just can't get more delicious than this - cute teddies and lab puppies .... and yummy chocolate cake .....  OHHH!

 

Here is my take on the moodboard and colour  for this month:

Here is my husband back in 1992 - a very young hubby! I have started off using a stencil and created some texture in the background with texture paste. Once this was dry, I then splattered some brown ink over the card stock. I have chosen some Dusty Attic chipboard for my layout. I have chosen to use gilding polish to colour in the chipboard - it looks just like chocolate icing!

I have then layered some Prima papers behind my photo also mounting it on foam tape for dimension and also to be able to tuck the chipboard behind the frame.
I have chosen this gorgeous chippie title because this photo was taken quite a few years ago.

Pop on over to the White ... with 1 blog to check out the details to play along with us - and you could also win a prize! Also check out the details for the national scrapbooking challenge on the 4th of May.
