Hi there!
Today I`m sharing a layout I made for The Color Room. I used their palette #58. I usually don`t have time to play in challenges no matter how much I like them but last weekend I had some extra hours and I created this layout. This is my second time I`m using their palette. Last time I made a page was a year ago ;-).
I used the "Butterfly Garden" collection from Pink Paislee.
Well, as you can see I changed "a little bit" one of the colors :-))) or should I say I went out of the box... anyway, I`m happy with the result. The photos were printed in three colors...B&W, sepia and green.

As always I began creating my layout with white cardstock and Glimmer Mist. What I did this time was to use one of the Ornate Gates (medium - DA0188) from Dusty Attic. I had it for such a long time and I`m happy I finally used it. I cut the ornaments out of the gate and used them as a stencil for my background. The rest I used as a frame for my photos. I wanted to do something different from this chippie and my purpose was to use it anything but a gate.
I also used "The Butterfly Garden" Clear Stamps to decorate my edges....
When I painted it with Gesso I applied puffy paint.....
The puffy paint is a fabric paint that you use with a heat gun and the result is its beautiful puffy dimension....
All the alphas you see on the page are from Webster`s Pages "Country Estate" collection....
I applied puffy paint over the swirls as well.....
The butterfly is a clear stamp from Prima Marketing and the flowers and pearls as well.....
For the bird I used Fiskars` Clear stamp....
Hope you enjoyed my layout!

ReplyDeleteAaaa, I wasn't too far off in my comments over at TCR! puffy paint is fab used on the petals of flowers that are a bit plain and look flat. A good zap with the heat gun and Bob's your uncle! However, the pen that I've found doesn't give that much "puff", what's the brand of yours and where did you buy it pls?! Thanks for the close-ups Gerry, even more gorgeous details! have a great weekend sweetie! Thank you also warmly for the visit and even more so for becoming a follower, so lovely of you! xxooo
