Little Naturalist - 49 and Market

Hello lovelies!

I am back on the blog today mixing up some of the ranges with some old and some new. That is just how amazing these collections are - they can be mixed and matched quite easily. I have used a mixture of Vintage Artistry Nature's Study and Curators Botanical/Naturalist ranges here.

The base papers are the ledger papers Vintage Artistry Nature's Study Ledger Collection paper, which has been torn and adhered to the Vintage Artistry Nature's Study Tattered Writings paper. I then used bookplates - Curators Essentials Bookplates, and created a book like feature using the different pieces. These were bent slightly, glued down the centre and added foam tape between the pieces to give it a book like appearance.

Here is the other side - I cut down some of the smaller bookplates and used these as "bookmarks"

I have then used wording as tabs from the Vintage Artistry General Laser Cut Elements. From here I added mushrooms from the Laser Cut Mushrooms and Foliage set and the trees from the General set and created layers of mushrooms on either side of the book using foam tape.

I created a flower cluster using Rustic Bouquet Marigold flowers and then adding laser cuts through this.

I have also used wording from the Chipboard Word Set and added these to the layout - I have also used the little "screw" tops from the Cluster kit. There are rubons around the photo feature too (6x8 mushroom rubon set)

Thanks for visiting the blog today!

Hugs,

Michelle

Life is a daring adventure - Dusty Attic

 Hello lovelies

Today I am on the blog with a layout created using the October moodboard.

I have used papers from 13 Arts and Ciao Bella and done a bit of fussy cutting from the 13 Arts paper to create my layout.

For this layout I have used two sets of chipboard - Industrial Jumbo Gears (DA2860) and Foliage #4 (DA1294). I dabbed metallique brown paint on all the pieces first using a sponge and waited for this to dry. Once this was dry I added a dark teal metallique paint to the chipboard pieces, also dabbing this on with a sponge

I first added matting layers behind the photo before adhering this to the page with foam tape down the centre of the matted photo. I did this so that I could add my fussy cut pieces and gears under the photo as I did my layering.

I started first with fussy cut pieces than added the gears - some pieces were added with foam tape so I could create my different layers.

Once these were all layered I then added some of the foliage.

You can take part in the monthly moodboard challenge by using the moodboard to create a project (anything, as long as you use Dusty Attic Chippy) and add your project the Dusty FANattics facebook page. 2 random winners are selected and will win one of two AUD50 worth of gorgeous Dusty Attic chipboard.

 

These are the products I have used:

Beach Day - 49 and Market

Hello lovely 49 and Market Fans

I have a layout created for the blog today using the gorgeous, bright and happy Vintage Artistry Sunburst collection. 

I use a lot of photos off Pinterest for my layouts, and when I saw this photo I thought it was perfect for the theme of this Sunburst Collection, and the of course the colours were just spot on!

I have used the reverse side of the Sunburst - Lost Island paper from the Sunburst 12x12 Collection pack for the base of my layout. I used two photos, sanded the edges and fanned these out and added the white wooden frames from the sunburst Ephemera behind the photos and added thi layered photo mat the page with foam tape in the centre only - allowing the space under the photo edges to add my layers of lasercuts flowers and leaves.

I used flowers and foliage off both sets of Sunburst Laser Cuts packs - the General Pack and the Foliage laser cuts. I have curled some of the petals of my frangipanis before adding these and the other flowers in layers with foam tape around the edge of the photo, as well as the foliage. The netting has been taken from the Sunburst Ultimate Page Kit - I have used the reverse side of this so I could use the blue side instead of the black. I have also cut this into pieces so that I could use it in different places on my layout. I just love the sign post out of the General Laserpack and I just had to use it! All the little bows are from the General pack, and I just love the banner title (also a laser cut) "Beach Day" 

And how cute are the little cross stitches? These are from the General Laser Cut pack. I have added foam tape under the foliage to create dimension.

I have finished off the page adding a seahorse feature to the top of the right of the page.

This a mix of Laser Cuts and Ephemera. I have added the paper Laser Cut Sequins to the page - with Glossy Accents to give it a "watery" effect (although not very visible in the photos).

Thanks for visiting the blog today.

Happy crafting!

Hugs,

Michelle

Happy Memories - Dusty Attic

Hello!

And welcome to October - can you believe, it's October?! I have a layout created for the blog today.

I have used some of the older pieces of chipboard - just shows how amazing this chipboard is, it was amazing then and is still amazing now! I have created this layout using paper from the Scrapboys.

All the chipboard was painted with green acrylic paint. 

I added the framed photo to the page with foam tape in the centre, so I was able to tuck the chicken mesh (D0177) under - I cut this into a bigger piece and a smaller piece - the bigger piece used under the paper and photo and the smaller piece under the small cluster on the left.

I the added fussy cut flowers and paper flowers to create clusters and added the leaves (DA0508) in the clusters.

I then added the title "happy Memories" (DA0732) - and added glossy accents to the title.

These are the products that I have used:

Thanks for visiting the blog.

Hugs,
