The girl in the water – Pascale B

Hello Sweeties,

Today I’m up on Dusty Attic blog with a simple layout.

I really want to keep the design of my layout very simple. I die-cut a few hexagons in papers from the same collection as my background.

I primed my selected chipboard with white gesso. 

I colored them all with a Distress Oxide Spray matte finish like the Foliage #5, or a mix of the Distress Oxide Spray and Starbust that add some shine with the mica it contains like for the Foliage Cluster #2 and #3. 

For the Wildflower #5, I used the same Distress Oxide Spray to color the branches and leaves, but I colored the flower buds with a Distress Oxide Spray with the same tone as the flowers. 

I glued all the hexagons on a cardboard to rise them a little. Then, I started my composition: I glued first the hexagons, then I added the chipboard and flowers.
