Design Team Project

Cute as a Button – Adri Du Preez

 Hello everyone!
I am sharing my February design team project with you using some beautiful Dusty Attic chippies. I’ve had this large wooden button for a while and Jennifer Hedger specially made this cute title for me. This is my sweet granddaughter when she was only two weeks old.


All the chipboard pieces were first covered with white gesso.
For the ombre effect on the title I used a light and dark pink acrylic paint and white to blend the colours. The buttons were also painted with acrylic paint and tucked under the flower clusters.


The stamens were painted with acrylic paint and Glossy Accents.


I painted the Leafy stems with acrylic paint, Glossy Accents and dry brushed with white acrylic paint.


The leaves were embossed with Ranger white embossing powder.


I just love these beautiful Wordpl@y elements.  They are my favourite!

These are the Dusty Attic chipboard pieces that I have used.
