Make today so awesome … – Patricia Basson

Hello again …Today I am sharing with a new layout based on last months gorgeous mood board colours.It had the most beautiful hues of greens and creams, and was the perfect setting for these cute images from Pinterest. The papers I used are from Mintay Papers, Florabella collection. I did some fussy cutting and layering on this page. 


As usual I primed my chipboard with a layer of gesso. I used Aged Ivory Embossing Enamel from Stampendous on the Ornate Motif # 2. On the Delicate Frame # 3 I used Perissa embossing powder from WOW. The leaves from Dusty Attic’s Foliage # 9 only needed some Art Alchemy Waxes, Ochre and White Gold.The Quoted Sentiment was just gesso’d and some random Vintage Beeswax added on the edges.  


As I wanted some texture on the page I used a stencil and some freehand to add White crackle paste and Paper Paste to the edge of the page. I colored it with Olive Pearl Paint from Deco Art and Avocado Green Liquid Acrylic from Finnabair. I used the Vintage Antiquing Paste to highlight the cracks and texture.

From the Dusty Attic On-line shop I used the following.

Tropical Foliage # 9DA 2537

Delicate Frame # 3DA 2145

Ornate Motifs # 2DA 2169

Quoted Sentiments # 4DA 2585
