Cherish - Dusty Attic Mood Board

Hello there!

Here is my take in the lovely moodboard for August. Gosh I just love this moodboard ... so inviting, I would just love to be there .....

Here is my take on the moodboard inspired by the colours

I have used some of the new release chippies - they are just so gorgeous!
I have started off with clear gesso on the page. Once this as dry, I stencilled the background with texture paste using the Dusty Attic Knitting Stencil. The background chipboard is from the Polaroid Frame Set #1. I have used the outside frame and one of the slides with the cherish word. The photo was then placed on this frame.

I used Creative Expression Gilding Polish to colour all my chipboard. I first done the frame and placed this on top of the photo before I added fussy cut flowers.

Once this was all placed. I the tucked in the Tropical Foliage #6 under the flowers, and added some Blooms #3. And I just had to add the gorgeous little mini shells - they are just so cute.

I finished off the page adding some art stones and adding some ink around the edges of the design.

I love my Cat - Dusty Attic

Hello everyone!

Oh my goodness! I am just loving all the new dog and cat chipboard releases - and I have used the new cat chipboard to do my project for you today.

I have used some Mintay Berrylicious paper to create my layout, tearing the 2nd paper added to the base page. The chipboard has all been painted in white first, and then once dry, have added Dusty in Colour paints and painted these (Watered down). Once these were dry I then sanded them.

I started with attaching the photo to the frame (isn't this frame just adorable with all the cat icons?), then arranging matting papers behind. These were then adhered to the page with foam tape. I then added the flower cluster to the side adding in the dusty attic blooms and the cut cat paw chippies.

I have then added the broken bits of mesh in the cluster as well as around the frame, and add the fish bones from the cat icon chippie.

I have finished off adding some 49 and Market wishing bubbles, some stamping and then adding some blue paint around the papers and flowers to left the photos and the flower feature.

Just love the cat icons on this frame.

Love - 49 and Market

Hello 49 and Market fans!

I have created a new layout which I would like to share with you today.

I so enjoyed putting this layout together. The photo is compliments of Pexels.com. I started the layout with the Singing the Blues paper from the Sweet Reflections range, which I covered with clear gesso, before adding some stencilling and stamping. I then added blue, pink and white ink splatters on the page.

I then started layering with flowers, some fussy cutting, laser cuts and chipboard around the photo. The flowers used were a mixture of Country Blooms Cobalt, Country Blooms Blush, Wildflowers Blush and Stargazers Simply White. I also fussy cut flowers from Sweet Reflections Crossroads paper, and used some of the Sweet Reflections laser cut pieces.

I have added in some chipboard pieces using the white Love Archival Chipboard. I coloured the lock in pink and blue, and added Wink of Stellar to the leaves. I have also added Wink of Steller to the some of the flowers and the wings of the dragonfly.

I have finished off adding some microbeads and using Bubblegum and Blueberry Wishing Bubbles.

Thank you for stopping by!

Great Outdoors - 49 and Market

Hello everyone!
Today I decided to do something a little different, and do a male layout, using a mixture of layered embellishments, chipboard, papers and laser cuts.

The frame is from the Serendipitous Collection, and the easy cut images page. I cut out the frame to the B side of the The Journey paper from the Collection Captured Adventures. I have sanded the frame and then dry-brushed some gold paint over the frame.
I have stamped on the back ground paper and then started layering with laser cuts from the Vintage Remnants set no 1, using the page piece. This I cut about an inch and half off the bottom, distressed and then sanded it. The film strip is from the Vintage Remnants set no 2.

The chipboard chain and the clock come from the Memory Captured Archival Chipboard, and the title from the Great Outdoor Archival chipboard set. These have been painted with rusty paint, and has the grit in it to resemble rust. I have then layered cogs from the Serendipitous layered embellishments, and leaves and bubbles from the Ethereal layered embellishments.

The love this moment comes off the laser sheet in the 6x6 paper pack of the Captured Adventures paper. I have finished off adding some prills to the layout.

These are the products I have used:

Till next time, happy crafting.

Selfie - Dusty Attic

Hello Dusty Attic Fans

Today I am on the Dusty Attic blog featuring my layout for the July moodboard. I have done my layout of my daughter who was trying to teach me how to do selfies. I couldn't get my pose right, so she took my phone and said "here Mom like this, and this was the photo she took as a selfie on my phone 😋.

And here is my layout featuring these gorgeous colours:

This is a Stamperia set of papers. I have started by colouring the Mystic Frame in a mixture of Dusty in Attic acrylic paint Denim and Capri and sponging this on the chipboard, as well as the leaves, and the keys. I the made a shaker box before adhering the flowers. I then mounted the photo on layered papers, distressing it and adhering it to the page with foam tape, before adhering the the Mystic Frame on top of the photo

I layered the flowers and added the leaves in under the flower arrangement

I have added in some little keys, I think these are quite cute!

I then painted the script chippie with Dusty in Colour gold paint, I then cut this up and stuck this behind either side of the photo and another bit at the end of the flower cluster on the left.

I have finished off by dabbing both a mixture of Dusty in Colour Raisin paint and some Capri on the title "Selfie"

49 and Market - Captured

Hello there!

I am so loving the new range of flowers, and today I am going to show case some of the new flowers using a mixture of other gorgeous 49 and Market products. Here is my layout for today using Bold and Beautiful Garden Letters paper:

Using the Vintage Remnants Laser Cut sheet no 1, adhere the photo to the frame. Add the postcard from Bold and the Beautiful Laser Cut Sheet, and then the postcard from the Vintage Remnants Laser cut no 1 behind the photo and then adhere to the page on foam tape. Tuck the chicken wire behind the photo and the postcard on the right.
3D the flowers from the Bold and Beautiful Laser Cut Sheets, and then start layering the flowers. I first started by making a triple bow from the single ply Jute Cording Single, adding it to a piece of foam tape before adhering the first flower in the left corner.

The flower cluster is a mix of the flowers and the 3D flowers from the the Bold and Beautiful Laser Sheet, the Scarlet mini series flowers, the Tangerine wildflowers, and some of the Tangerine country blooms. I have also used all the leaves from the Bold and Beautiful Laser Cut sheet, as well as some of the stamps.

I have broken up the Tangerine wildflowers, and layered these through the flower arrangement. I have tucked the lace chippie from the Treasure archival board under the flowers, and have randomly added the cogs from the Great Outdoors archival chipboard through the flowers. I have also cut up the chicken wire and added this in. There is also some of the leaves from the new Ethereal Layered Embellishments.
