I have used Bo Bunny Star Crossed papers which I fell in love with the second I saw them !! The colours, the feathers, the embellishment pack – Love Love Love and all so perfect for this photo shoot that we did in the “fairy mines” as Ky and Cadence call them
(Its actually a pine plantation with a footpath around it), I wish you could see this in “real life” as it is very very layered and quite high!

Black Soot DA 0925

I started with the diamond stencil background using black crackle paint, then I have painted a lot of the Dusty Attic chipboard pieces with the Black Soot paint as well.

The hexagons I have used I have “popped” out of the Honeycomb Large and small panel pieces and covered them with the Bo Bunny papers
(small DA0740 Large DA0738)

Honeycomb DA0740 and DA0738

I have added red twine around the love heart arrows and around the focal circle made of the gold wire around the photograph, I made my own circle to use as a dream catcher type symbol with white embroidery thread and then wrapped fine gold thread across it, the tiny pegs I have painted gold along with the little diamonds you see there on the Mini Balloons (they are popped out of the trellis piece of chippy)

Mini Trellis DA 1033

I love the view finders and have used both the large and mini size on this layout with Navaho white paint then used crackle gloss and rubbed it over the Dusty Attic Gold paint.The small view finder I just coloured with brown ink and then rubbed it back to make it rustic.

The feathers that came in the ephemera pack I have dipped with gold glitter and bent them around to add dimension to them. The chipboard feathers I have left raw and but rubbed some gold paint over the top to match.
