Merry Christmas with Dusty Attic

Hello Dusty Attic friends!

And a Merry Christmas to you all - may this Christmas season bring you lots of happiness and love!

And since it is Christmas, I have put together  a Christmas layout with gorgeous Dusty Attic chipboard

I have used Prima paper and flowers combined with the Dusty Attic chipboard to create the layout. There is some stencilling, inking, splattering and stamping in the background before I added all my elements.

All the Dusty Attic chipboard has been painted first in Dusty in Colour Gold. I then added a gilding polish that has a white gold finish over the chipboard pieces.

The photo and paper have been matted on foam tape to allow for the flowers to be tucked under.

I love these chipboard poinsettia's  - and they come in different sizes, which was really great to use on my page. Once all the flowers and chipboard were in place, I added some art stone to the flowers and parts of the page - I thought this gave the page a good Christmas feeling - like snow!

These are the products I have used:

Enjoy your festive season and best wishes for 2020!

Festive greetings 49 and Market fans!

As Christmas is upon us, I thought I would put together a Christmas layout to celebrate the festive season. Using the Winters Edge Collection, this is my layout

The base page is the Winters Edge Snowdrift paper. I have used the Bohemian Damask Stamp and Vintage Photo stamp pad to stamp the background. I have then used the frame from the Winters Edge Laser Cuts sheet to frame my photo. The "notes" behind the photo frame are the booklets from the Old School Collection Laser Sheet. I have then added the banner from the Wnters Edge laser sheet to the top of the frame with foam tape, and added the "Be Merry" words.

The flowers have been added in layers on either side of the photo, including adding the laser cuts between these flowers. The cones have been curled inwards to created a rounded effect. I have added some twine in the buttons from the laser sheet.

I have also bent the holly leaves up to create extra dimension. Once finished, I have added some micro art stones. The memories title is a Dusty Attic chipboard. I have added some chalking around the edges of the design.

Have a festive season and best wishes for 2020!

Hello Dusty Attic friends

Today I am up on the blog with my take on the gorgeous December moodboard

These colours are just gorgeous! Insired by the colours - and thinking something elegant and pretty, I have created this layout

Here I have used paper from the Stamperia Cosmos range - perfect for this moodboard. First I have used two of the same photos at angles and then adding paper pieces as a matt behind the photo. The dusty attic chipboard pieces have been painted with Dusty in Colour paint.

Starting with the swirly frame, I have cut out just the swirl bits and then layered these on top of each other under the left hand bottom corner of the photo. I have also cut the squiggly frame in half and added one half to the top of the photo and the other half to the right side of the photo.

I then added the flowers and fussy cut elements. Once these were done, I then tucked in the leaves.

I have then added the title "imagine"

Once I have completed all the elements I add some lavender prills and then used some chalk to blend in around the photos and flowers to add some dimension.

These are the products I have used

Memory - 49 and Market

Hello 49 and Market friends

Today I am up on the blog with a masculine layout using papers from the Old School collection, plus cogs from the archival chipboard "Timeless" and cogs form the Serendipitous  laser cuts.

I have used the paper High School, as my background paper. The frame for the photo is from the Captured Adventures laser cut sheet. I have used various layers of matting behind the photo, using the larger cream coloured frame from the Old School Collection laser cuts, and adding a black matt using the Old School Off the Grid paper, then cut out the 'notebook" from the paper that has the cards and notes in the Old School collection, and then another layer of Off the Grid paper.  I have then stuck this whole piece down only adhered through the centre, so I was able to add some blue chalking around the papers, and add some stamping. I have used the script stamp from Gabi's and stamp around the outside of the papers. The clock is from the Vintage Remnants no 2 laser cut sheets.

I have embossed a Dusty Attic chipboard called Industrial Corners, as well as the large cog arrangement plus the smaller cogs, nuts and bolts from the Timeless Archival Chipboard, as well the title Memory from the Memory Archival Chipboard set. I then rubbed some gilding wax over the embossed chipboard to give it a rusty effect. I have cut through the large cog cluster so that these can be placed on either side of the photo. I have used the Dusty Attic chipboard under my photo for dimension and that part of it sticks out from under the photo.
Once this was all set I started layering the chipboard cogs and the cogs from the Serendipitous Laser Cut sheet about the main cogs.  I have also used the tag and the tickets from the Old School laser cut sheet. I have also added some tiny blue glass micro beads to finish off.

I have added the book from the Old School Collection - and using the pieces to create a 3D book. I have created a nut and bolt effect by adding the nut and the bolt bit on top.

Thanks for coming over to visit.
