Hello everyone!
Nicole here to share with you my project
inspired by the May Dusty Attic mood board challenge.
Here is this month’s classy and elegant mood board:
I was inspired to create a page about myself using some of the same colours and textures as in the images, including lace, white wash and pretty flowers.
I created a title by combining the Dusty Curls ABC Set and the Mini ABC Set Upper as well as the ‘vintage’ word from the Mini Words #3 pack.
I cut one of the gorgeous Corner Flourish #3 in 2 pieces, treating each piece a different colour of embossing powder to complement the colour palette. I then dabbed some white paint on them.
On my background, I chose to use the Lace Stencil to add a little texture.
I used gold embossing powder on the butterfly from the Flutterbies #1 set.
My favorite part of creating a project aside from playing with chipboard is searching my flower stash to pick the ones that will best fit my colour palette and theme. Needless to say, I have more flowers in my stash than I will ever be able to use in a lifetime!
And the many leafy flourishes from Dusty Attic are just perfect to extend the flower clusters on any layout.
I wanted to create this page to remind me that getting older doesn’t have to be a bad thing. I will be turning 45 next month and I’d rather see myself as getting more vintage rather than older.
