Love Completlely – Michelle Van Oudtshoorn

Hello Dusty Attic fans

Happy New Year to you all – may you have a wonderful 2020!

Here is my first project for 2020

This is one of my favourite photos of my daughter and I. On this particular day when this photo was taken – we had done a mother-daughter photoshoot for a mother-daughter book that was being published and the proceeds went to charity. We then spent a lovely day shopping and having lunch together – a really lovely mother daughter day!



I started with the Ornate Frame and painted this with Dusty in Colour Pesto. I then cut this, so that I could wrap it around the edge of the photo. I have moved the left piece up and the right piece down and adhered this to the photo. I then added the photo on double mounted tape. The Broken Bits Numbers was first painted in white paint and I then finished it off using Creative Expressions Gilding Polish Blossom on these before tucking these under the photo.

I then added the flower cluster. The fern leaves were also painted in the Dusty Attic in Colour Pesto paint, before being added among the flowers.The Love Completely title was also first painted in whit and then covered with Gilding Polish.

I then added the title onto the flower cluster.

The “Smile” is from the Polaroid Frame Set #1, also painted in Dusty in Colour Pesto. I then cut the frame so that I had only the word left and adhered this to the top of the photo.
