Simply Perfect- Dusty Attic mood board challenge

 

Hello everyone, today I am sharing my take on the Dusty Attic Mood Board challenge for August, it is super sweet pinks and browns.



This photo of my gorgeous little grand daughter was taken at a park where she kept bobbing her head down and saying "Peek-A-Boo".  This is just one of the many things that photographs do, evoke memories attached to them.




I started by spray painting all of my chipboard except the frame and title white. While it was drying I have covered the Distress Frame with the patterned paper and machine stitched around the edges of the pink background.






I have painted an ombre effect onto the Simply Perfect title with browns and pinks, and the pink of the little frames. I have added black card behind the mini hearts to make them "pop" and some of the patterned paper inside.



The Cherry Blossom tree and the cute little Songbird have been painted using the same brown for the branches and pink for the blossoms adding white, dark pink and light brown dots.



The flowers, leaves and bird are fussy cut from the Forest tea party paper. The chippy toadstools layered in between where a must along with the awesome dandelions, you can't see them and not want to make a wish. 




The Forrest Friends Llamas are simply just too super gorgeous together with the cute little Forrest Friends Reindeer.  I have left them mainly white and just coloured their wool and scarves with fine tipped markers.

It's all about ME - Dusty Attic

 

How amazing is the DUSTY ATTIC NEW RELEASE  ?

I have created this layout of my gorgeous little grand daughter on her 2nd birthday. 

I started by colouring all of my chipboard, the "it's all about ME" title, Botanic runner and number 2 in blue that matches her little top. 



The gorgeous little songbirds have been coloured using Kaiser pens after painting them white.



The bottoms of the butterflies are painted in pink with the overlay left white. Bend the wings up before adhering to make it look like they are 3D.





I have added "Wink of Stella glitter pen" to the "ME" of the title and the number 2 which I have added to one of the Botanic Buttons.





The amazing dandelions are painted by first colouring them all white then using a paint brush to add the green to all of the stems.





I love the little details of the Botanic mixes and the word strips give to a page. 

When I had finished I thought it needed just one more thing so I added some stencilling with the Flower Power stencil. See the video below
