<div style="text-align: left;">
Hi all,</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
I'm back to share this heart-shaped mixed media canvas with you. It's <a href="http://bit.ly/2saBZYY">on the Canvas Corp Brands blog now</a>, and has the <i>step by step pics</i> as well, in case you're interested. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Recently my brother, I and our families had an afternoon planned to try and get a nice picture of the 6 of us. As a Father's Day gift. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
As to be expected, things didn't go as planned. The remote for my camera didn't work, so some old-fashioned running into place after setting the self-timer was involved. Luckily, 10 seconds were enough, even with my twisted ankle, jumping through the prickly grass. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
That prickly grass was another point that ruined things. For my son. And my nephew. Who didn't wanna walk through, or even stand in it. So the first few shots we had were displaying some moody faces. Grumpy Cat, move over! </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Later on they alternated crying and cooperating. But when they were frolicking on a picknick table, I took a few shots and one really popped out. I edited it to black and white, except for the blues. (We all wore blue to get a nicer picture.) And then I tweeked it a little more and found myself inspired instantly. Does that happen to you too? That a new picture inspires you to scrapbook it right away?</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
So, that's the backstory. Just so you know these shots of happy boys don't happen all the time. And especially not when planned. <br />
<br />
The current <a href="https://www.facebook.com/groups/OurMixedMediaMoods/">"Our Mixed Media Moods" </a>challenge board inspired me enormously!<br />

<div style="text-align: left;">
Below you can find most of the Canvas Corp Brands ingredients I used for my canvas. Finally used some more of the new 7gypsies Architextures, like the Parchment Rub-ons, Junque Pack, Tin Tiles and some of the paper.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
I used the Tattered Angels Naturally Aged Paint System - Rusty Metal to make rust, but tried another way with Tattered Angels Glimmer Glam as well. You can read about it on the CCB Blog.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
Hey all,</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Time for the <a href="https://wordspaintery.blogspot.nl/2017/06/june-2017.html?m=1">June challenge</a> over at Words & Paintery! The mooboard is soft...</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Give it a go, you have until July 15!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Upon seeing the colors and the text, the picture from our Summer Vacation (in the Netherlands) last year came to mind immediately. Connor was enjoying his Cornetto, at the waterside of a very picturesque spot. Can you believe this was actually near a bunker? To us it was an idyllic spot, but the hardship those soldiers must have endured is infathomable.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
And in a few measly weeks, it will be time for Summer Holidays again, already... Time flies!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b>Step 1.</b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Sometimes, starting out blank can be good. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Apply clear gesso on a white sheet of cardstock.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<b><br /></b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<b>Step 2.</b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Use TCW Light & Fluffy Modeling Paste through the TCW stencil 564S, 'Organic Matter'.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The goal is to sort of mimic the structure of icecream...</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<b>Step 3.</b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
First spray water, then drop and tap various shades of Tattered Angels Glimmer Mist onto your project. Allow them to drip down, just like a melting icecream would do. Spray or sprinkle more water or mists, if the effect is not right.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Used Tattered Angels colors: </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
*Mint Julip</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
*Chalkboard - Splash</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
* Baseboard - Baby Girl Pink</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<b>Step 4.</b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Cut some pieces of board from a sheet of paper with board patterns, ink the edges and attach them to the desired position with staples and 3d foam. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
This paperpad is from Decotime (Action).</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<b>Step 5.</b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Die-cut leaves from metallic white and mint paper, </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
using Prima leaves dies and Aliexpress leaf die.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Create your composition using leaves, flowers and straws.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b>Step 6.</b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Color some wood icecream cones and a little square text block,</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
using white gesso and the Glimmer Mist colors mentioned above.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Die-cut the little heart-beat from white foam (die: Aliexpress).</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b>Step 7.</b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
When everything is in place, dab white gesso on the embellishments with a sponge first.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Allow to dry, then coat everything in a layer of Tattered Angels Glimmer Glam 'Chandelier'.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Because I use white gesso mostly every time before I use this product, I'm not sure the result is a reaction of both. Either way, the Glimmer Glam gives it a bit of a frosty feel, a milky gleem. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
With sparkle!</div>

Cut out a cardboard 7 in the desired size. </div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
I used a paper from the new 7gypsies #Architextures Mix and Match Book Pink, </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
glued it to a piece of cardboard using gel medium and then sprayed some </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
Also from Architextures, I used the Short base - Doilies pack.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I cut off 3 doilies, adhered them to my paper and sprayed some Tattered Angels </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
From my brandnew 7gypsies Architextures Parchment Rub-Ons - Live, </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I used the lady with the broom and bucket and rubbed her on my card. No fuss at all. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
So different from traditional rub-ons! And the look? Like a stamp! WOW!</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I used a sticker from the Architextures Stash Paque, 'Create', and colored it a little with brown ink to soften its black and white. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I added some paper from the 7gypsies 'Wanderlust' pad, underneath my 7gypsies truck. I colored that truck with Tattered Angels Glimmer Glaze - Bon Bon and Tailfin.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I cut out some paintings from a paper called 'Art Wall', from the Architextures 8 by 8 paper pad.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
From another Architextures Stash Paque, I took the soft green label, cut it in half and added it on top of my 7 and on the right side of the card.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The text 'live life throughyour art' is from the package of the Architextures rub-ons! I thought it was appropiate, because I am really one who lives through my art. I am not much of a traveler. I love being at home and creating my art. Through which I tell my story.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
Using Tattered Angels Glimmer Glam Bon Bon and Tailfin, I gave my rub-on lady a little color. Her face and body were done with some Tattered Angels Glimmer Mist 'Red Tipped Roses'.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
I cut up some sections of my cardboard 7, and either stapled them together, or strung them together with leather cord. I added one step crackle medium on the 7 and the paintings.</div>

My assistant and I started rusting a bunch of things: some diecut pipes I made with my Bigshot, using my latest Tim Holtz pipes die and cardboard. A gear-clockwork thingy, loose gears. I wasn't sure what I wanted to use, so we just rusted some items, using mostly my Viva Decor Rust paste.</div>

I gave the house a coat of greenish acrylic paint, then a coat of crackle medium, </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
then another coat of blue acrylic paint. I sanded it a bit, too.</div>

Once the Rust Paste was dry, I dropped some Tattered Angels Glimmer Mist - Brass onto some parts and rubbed some Inka Gold - Turquoise onto other parts.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
I added the pipes and gears where I liked them and glued everything in place. I sprinkled some Infusions - Sleight Blue on my project and sprayed water to activate it. The black soot gave it an even more realistic distressed feel.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Using gel medium, I added micro beads in gold an black on my project here and there.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I sprinkled and dropped some Tattered Angels Glimmer Mist - Verdrigris onto my project too, for a finishing touch. It's a wonderful copper color with turquoise.</div>

Hey all,<br />
<br />
Back to show you some more Easter crafting. Or I thought it would be approppiate to use this bunny picture of Connor and me, regarding Easter ;)<br />
This layout is on the Canvas Corp Brands blog now, <a href="http://bit.ly/2ns5ND4">HERE</a>. In their post you will find some <b>step by step pics</b>!<br />
<br />
I'm no fan of the Snapchat pictures usually, but my brother did this one of Connor and me and I kinda loved it. Connor loved it too, he said we looked so sweet. <br />
To enhance the spring feeling I used fresh and vibrant colors of Tattered Angels Glimmer Mist, and a mosaic flower pattern as backgound. I'll show you the rest on the CCB Blog...<br />
<br />
You can find me on <a href="http://www.facebook.com/lessisbore">Facebook</a> and <a href="http://www.instagram.com/mandylessisbore">Instagram</a>, too.<br />
<br />
HAPPY SCRAPPING!<br />

Hey everyone,</div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
The time for the Words & Paintery April Challenge has come! You can find it <a href="https://wordspaintery.blogspot.nl/2017/04/april-2017.html?m=1">HERE</a>. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
As usual you will have until the 15th to play along, so the deadline is May 15.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
This was a hard one for me. Lately I haven't been inspired to use pinks AT ALL. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
As it always goes, you think you'll have time, but then the deadline neared and we were away for Barcelone, leaving me only a couple of hours to create something. And I'm a slow scrapper...</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I made something then though. But I didn't like how it turned out at all. And there was no salvaging. It was a pink disaster I tell you. People even asked if Connor made it. All the chipboard shapes were unrecognizable, even the sewing machine that looked like it had been set on fire due to an experiment with some new black Inklings... </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Soooo I gave the pinks another shot Friday afternoon and was happy about the result. I used my recent inspiration from Barcelone. <i>Mosaic patterns, a church window, Mary and Jesus</i>. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
(Which made sense too, now Easter is here...) </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Yes, this project is okay to me. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Judge for yourself and if you have any questions about how I made it, don't hesitate to ask. (Didn't do step by step pics this time, sorry...)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

Hi everyone,</div>
<div style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Yes, Easter is almost near... </div>
<div style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Will you be doing anything special? We are going to do some Family visits and hopefully get some extra sleep. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Last weekend we went on a City Trip to beautiful Barcelone, Spain. This trip was a gift from my work, because of our company's 25 year anniversary. In a way I was looking forward to it, but in another way not at all. It meant Connor (our son) would have to sleep over at my dad's for 4 nights, you see...</div>
<div style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
In retrospective, all went very well and we didn't miss him as much as we thought we would. We called every day, and he let us reassure the number of nights he still had to stay at grandpa's before we would pick him up again. When the trip back home had begun, I couldnt wait to hold him again. After a <strike>good </strike>night's sleep, of course. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEja8EGjQYAzGu9V5nm0wZGhPKuaB_8ojVOOlkmmxcxU0Ws3wVsE8Ro9DZc1jKyTcDY_uwTz1vPIJT3V2tEfrTtLCf9dDKx23qGTPba8TXuCeAh7rUCWSYeGJCmjoOvbpPy9qI1kdY9VEZc/s1600/CCB+ei+%252840a%2529.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"></a></div>
<div style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Barcelone is a beautiful city with treasures like churches and beautiful buildings lurking around every corner. I regret not being able to visit Sagrada Familia. For me, the most unexpected beautiful part of the trip was Park Guell. I pictured it wrong, somehow. Like a bench with mosaic and...? To my surprise the park was rather large and filled with lustrous green and felt so serene and peaceful. And Gaudi's work? Wow. The way that man's mind works, has left me puzzling and wondering and in awe, ready to discover more.</div>
<div style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I'm filled and inspired and maybe you'll see a project influenced by him, or using one of the pictures I took, or cards I bought, in the near future.</div>
<div style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
For now, back to EASTER.</div>
<div style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Upcycled an old flower pot with paper flowers and foliage, using the <b>Tattered Angels Naturally Aged Paint Kit 'Weathered Copper' </b>and<b> Tattered Angels High Impact Paint 'Copper'.</b></div>
<div style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>

Start with your background paper and cover it in clear gesso. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
This sheet is from the budget store called Action. This beach photo from last year's Summer Holiday came to mind with these colors. We really enjoyed ourselves at the Dutch beach during those hot Summer days. Connor loved the sand and sea.</div>

Hi everyone,</div>
<div align="center">
<br /></div>
<div align="center">
Inspired by the <a href="http://berry71bleu.blogspot.nl/2017/03/march-mood-board-challenge-tiny.html">Berry71bleu March challenge</a> moodboard I created this canvas. </div>
<div align="center">
As a gift for my inlaws, who were celebrating their birthdays. </div>

Since I recently learned how to watercolor with my Tattered Angels Glimmer Mists, I tried my hand at it again. Spray water onto your project first, the drip and brush and splatter and blend and dry until you get the desired result. I love the way the colors flow and become such creative shapes.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
For this projects I used the following Tattered Angels Glimmer Mists: </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<i>Marigold - Summerglow - Dijon - Dragonfly - Simply Sheer Teal - Chalkboard</i> <i>Seven Seas</i></div>

<span style="color: black;">Next, use a honeycomb stencil and Prima Finnabair texture Paste Graphite to create the background. Though I have used this paste before, the outcome surpised me again. It worked so well with this stencil, giving the pattern a metal feel and look.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I added this pattern to the (still blank) sides as well.</div>

Using my Bigshot I cut a bunch of Sizzix Tim Holtz wildflowers from Kraft paper and tucked them underneath my picture, mostly on the top side. To flank the picture I chose wood gears. On the wildflowers I splattered various colors of Tattered Angels Glimmer Mists (the colors I used before), Viva Decor Rust paste and even some drops of Mod Podge.</div>

The thing I seem to have trouble with ALL the time, is the color of the title. First I made it yellow. Nope. Then Gold. Nope. Dabbed a bit of Viva Decor Rust paste on. Still nope. Added some Tattered Angels Glimmer Glam 'Tail Fin' and then I quit. </div>

Hey all! </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
As you might know, 2017 is the second year of me being a member of the amazing </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<b>Canvas Corp Brands Crew!</b> </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
They ask the crew to create a 4 by 4 inch canvas that shows 'your style'.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I made my first one last year, and wanted to create a new one for this year. I will show you the process underneath. Hope you'll enjoy it. I loved recreating this miniature scene with the bricks that seem so real, and the shabby shutters, beautiful flowers and grapes, and woman looking out the window so longingly.</div>

Hey everyone!</div>

<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
So sadly this post comes while the #tcwccbmatchup took place in February 2017, thus is over by now. I am sorry about that. But I do hope you had the chance to catch all of both crews beautiful projects?</div>

From both The Crafter's Workshop designteam, as well as the Canvas Corp Brands designteam, some members were elected to create something for this matchup. I was Lucky enough to be on the team! No project of mine is left un-stencilled, so this made me a very happy scrapper.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
We were sent a box full of goodies from both companies.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Canvas Corp Brands sent us various sheets of paper and 4 colors of Tattered Angels Glimmer mist and a jar of Glimmer Glam.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The Crafter's Workshop sent us 3 large stencil and 5 small ones, as well as 5 delicious mediums. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The Gold Gesso and Light & Fluffy Modeling Paste have become definite favorites of mine!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Hey everyone,</div>
<div align="center">
<br /></div>
<div align="center">
Even though I LOVE being on my designteams, sometimes I need to get rid of some deadlines so I can start scrapping a layout that I want to get off my chest (and doesn't fit any of the themes). <br />
A layout feauturing one of the first pictures of Connor wearing his glasses. (Even though I know that from now on almost ALL of his pictures will include glasses, so kind of silly and pointless, but whatever...)</div>
<div align="center">
<br /></div>
<div align="center">
Since his glasses are orange and black, my initial idea was to use those colors, and maybe add another one. Maybe...</div>

Using a TCW Mini Eyechart stenil (349S) with somewhat smaller letters and black ink,</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I made some eyecharts all over the page.</div>

This wood Heidi Swapp 'Enjoy the view' seemed very appropiate to me, as are the wood glasses. (From a store called Action.) </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I used some Prima Texture Paste Graphite on the big glasses and on the word 'view'.</div>

First I sprayed water, then sprinkled my Tattered Angels Glimmermist 'Pumkin Spice' onto the page.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Using my Bigshot and a Sizzix Tim Holtz Framework Chevron die, I cut the shapes from black foam.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
So, using only orange and black gave me this result... Hello HALLOWEEN! Yikes...</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I colored the rest of the wood text with Tattered Angels glimmermist 'Pumpkin Spice' as well, and the straws too. They were black and white.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
To get rid of the Halloween vibe, I splattered Tattered Angels Glimmermist 'Baseboard Wave' </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
(a blue shade) on the layout. It turned the orange a little more rusty, and I love that!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
All of the black embellishments seemed way too intense now, so I added some Viva Decor Rusty Paper, copper micro beads and 13Arts blue mica flakes.</div>

As usual I tend to forget to take pictures of many of the following steps...</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The small glasses are wood and coated with black gesso by TCW, then one step crackle medium.</div>

Those little black Arrow/ V-shapes are from the Chevron diecut as well. Behind the picture I tucked some of the spiderweb-like 'open ribbon' that I colored with the shades of glimmermist I used on this project.</div>

Hi all, </div>
<div align="center">
<br /></div>
<div align="center">
The other day my sis sent me some pictures of my beautiful niece, dressed up for Carnival. </div>
<div align="center">
When they were visiting recently I had already noticed the growth my niece had gone through again, turning her into a real adolescent little lady instead of a kid. The costume she picked and the tough pose that went with it, emphasised everything even more: she's becoming a beautiful woman with a mind of her own. </div>
<div align="center">
Looks aren't everything, but luckily she has a beautiful heart that goes along with her exterior as well. She adores her nephew (my son), as if he were her own brother. </div>
<div align="center">
That being said, those pictures and the moodboard over at</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<a href="http://deedeecatron.blogspot.nl/2017/02/our-mixed-media-moods.html">Our Mixed Media Moods</a>, </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
immediately inspired me to create my own little gothic fairytale about her.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

The current <a href="http://morethanwordschallenge.blogspot.nl/2017/03/march-2017-main-challenge-beautiful.html">More Than Words Challenge</a> made me refine my theme and </div>

settle on the word that was already bouncing through my head the entire time anyway: BEAUTIFUL.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Finally I found use for this mirror frame I bought on vacation many years ago. I tried using different paints and mediums to age, rust and distress it, only to find the smooth surface was hard to work on. I used a base coat of Tattered Angels High Impact Paint Metallic Silver, then tried to use the Tattered Angels Paint Kit Rusty metal. I used some more Viva Decor Rust Paste and who knows what to achieve the effect I ended up with.</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Use another stencil, TCW "Art is" (261S), to create a little more patterned background. Through the CCB/TCW bloghop I got to work with this light & fluffy modeling paste and I ADORE it. If you use your heatgun the paste gets very puffy!</div>

Since I recently bought myself a Bigshot, I'm learning to use it. I found that this craft foam runs very easily through the machine, gives volume and it's easily painted in another color. Finally some use for that stash of outdated crafting stuff. I don't remember what brand the die is from, but it's a tiny one. Diecut some of the figures, cut them into pieces and adhere them to the cover. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Later on I added a bit more on the upper right side, those frames needed to be connected more somehow.</div>

Hello all! </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I have been neglecting my blog a bit... </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I have been busy, though. For the <a href="https://wordspaintery.blogspot.nl/2017/01/january-2017.html">January challenge</a> over at Words & Paintery I created a layout, according to this moodboard. I had the perfect picture in those exact colors!</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The quote was hard to incorporate at first, but then I came up with the lines from the song </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
"You are my Sunshine". </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<i>Please, don't take my Sunshine away.</i></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
If anything ever happened to my little boy, that would feel like an unrequited love to me. Heartbreaking...</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<b>STEP 1</b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Blend modeling paste with Tattered Angels Glimmermist "Dyon", apply through TCW Gabriella Pollacco stencil, spray some more glimmermist and allow to drip.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b> STEP 2</b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Blend Glimmermist "Kiwi" and GlimmerGlam "Caspian Sea" with modeling paste </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
and apply through the same stencil. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
In the top right corner I have used another TCW stencil, also by Gabriella Pollacco.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<b>STEP 3</b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Stamp some text around the stenciled areas with brown ink.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgjHZkGl2SKtaskJosQF8_lYkI5g_7RN9rKo68SJ2FsX2bKfAQJQ56ca2zPzld-OQ3jdfkFQy7gFLLQgVatQ8SbR9BXljjDl1OS6UEjWyEphNckWqXHp0q-PkUkn4nlt6Yh5it0B_808iw/s1600/Words+Paintery+January+Step+%25287%2529.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="300" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgjHZkGl2SKtaskJosQF8_lYkI5g_7RN9rKo68SJ2FsX2bKfAQJQ56ca2zPzld-OQ3jdfkFQy7gFLLQgVatQ8SbR9BXljjDl1OS6UEjWyEphNckWqXHp0q-PkUkn4nlt6Yh5it0B_808iw/s400/Words+Paintery+January+Step+%25287%2529.jpg" width="400" /></a></div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b>STEP 4</b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Apply a few coats of white gesso on the Creative embellishments chipboard text, before brushing several colors of yellow and green in an ombre effect on to the text and sun.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I used Tattered Angels Glimmer Mist "Dyon", "Marigold", "Kiwi", "Green" and Glimmer Glam "Caspian Sea".</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Once dry, add one step crackle medium on the text, and add a gloss on the sun. (Yes, I didn't want a cracked sun...)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<b>STEP 5</b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Color some white open fabric with the same glimmermists, into an ombre blend of yellow and green. Cut the bits and attach them to the back of the picture.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<b>STEP 6</b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Using your die cutting machine, cut a bunch of foliage in different shapes and colors matching the color scheme. Spray all of them with Tattered Angels Glimmermists to give them more depth.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Tuck these all around the picture, serving as a colorful frame, lengthening the corn from the picture. Don't forget that upper right corner!</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
there lived a little Gothic Blythe doll, </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
named Devon of Salem, in a tiny house in the Woods. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Her tricycle was parked outside. Christmas Stockings hung on the fireplace mantel and a few presents were lying at the foot of the decorated Christmas tree. A new doll was already showing her porcelain face. The chandelier in the top of the house lit up the scene, showing the ghostly reflection in the old mirror.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<i><br /></i></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<i>Then something happened...</i></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Strolling the woods the other day, I stumbled upon this little house. As I got nearer, birds stopped whistling and I felt a chill in the air. Around me there was no sign of frost or snow. The little house however, seemed to be frozen in time. Snow and ice covered the entire scene, from the wood rooftop with the little bird's nest on it, to the fireplace, mirror, Christmas tree, presents, and even Devon herself.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Twas an eery scene... Sad... Breathtakingly beautiful though! </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Was there magic involved? A spell? Fear?</div>

This month's <a href="https://wordspaintery.blogspot.nl/2016/12/december-2016.html?m=1">new Words & Paintery challenge</a> inspired me to create this little house. The colors are perfect for any wintery project, so I challenge you to play along with us! </div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The picture of the Blythe doll is my own. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I own about 9 of them. Devon of Salem was my favorite. (Until I ruined her face. I still have to re-do it, but my Blythe dolls have been hiding out in the attic ever since that day... Or maybe it had something to do with my little boy being born. I haven't had time to play with them anymore.)</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<b>Step 1</b>. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Start out by fussy cutting the picture. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Using a sheet of paper from Craftmania's "Mr. Smith's Workshop" collection, paper the inside and inner sides. For the ceiling parts I used a piece of Kaisercraft paper, from the Provincial Collection, called "Toile". For the flooring I used some leftover paper with white floorboard print.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<b>Step 2.</b> </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Using the Prima Marketing cobblestone stencil and a mixture of Structure Paint Cement Look and Texture Powder (to make it more firm), apply stone pattern to the sides of the house. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Let it dry overnight, then spray some Tattered Angels Glimmer Mist 'Silver' on the sides.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Attach the Resin Prima Shabby Chic Treasure Fireplace to the bottom centre of the backwall.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<b>Step 3</b>. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Heat emboss a chipboard church window with silver embossing powder. Don't you love the Stained Glass Window look? </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Not in pictures: make a photocopy of your picture and using Mod Podge, adhere it to a firm piece of cardstock or cardboard. Allow this to dry thoroughly, then wet the image and wipe off the paper excess. Once clean, dry and spray a little Tattered Angels Glimmer Mist 'Silver'.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Glue this to the back of the window and add several layers of clear crackle medium, inbetwixt layers brush some Prima Artisan Powder black in the cracks. Finish off with a few splatters of the Silver Glimmer Mist.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<b>Step 4</b>. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Cover the roof with squares of treebark, cut into smaller strips, in an imbricated manner. (Like real roof tiles/slates. I never knew the existence of this word too, LOL.)</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Glue bits of moss inbetween the openings and underneath the roof. Also glue some moss to the bottom and sides of the house.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<b>Step 5</b>. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Decorate a mini Christmas tree with some beads and string some battery operated LED lights around it, guiding the lights up to wrap them around the Prima metal chandelier.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Cut some felt Christmas stockings and glue a big siver bow onto them. Decorate them some more.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Do a flower piece for upon the mantle, and add 2 candlesticks next to it on either side.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<b>Step 6.</b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
You should end up with something like this. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I added some small bits of branch to pose as fire logs, and made some small presents by wrapping up some cardboard. I made a small box to fit the Tim Holtz Salvaged Doll in, covering the doll with Tim Holtz Silver Distress Crackle Paint and wrapping it in some sort of fabric.<br />
The vintage tricycle was bronze, so I colored it Silver with Ranger Tim Holtz Alcohol Ink.<br />
<br /></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<b>Step 7.</b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
First, make iciles with your hot glue gun. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
On the roof, hanging from the tiles, from the chandelier.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Then, cover almost EVERYTHING with Viva Decor "Ice Effect Hologram". </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
And I mean <b>EVERYTHING</b>. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The roof, the the tricycle, the outer walls, the items on the inside.</div>

<b>Step 8.</b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
This wasn't the effect I had in mind. I wanted it to look more icy. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
So, I cooked up a mixture of Mod Podge Gloss, 13 Arts glass filler (very small glassy beads) and Viva Decor "Eiskristall". I reapplied this to every imaginable surface and was almost satisfied.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Almost, because I never am <i>totally </i>;)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Added some Tattered Angels Glimmer Glam 'Chandelier' for more holographic coloring and it was done.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
I will leave you with more pictures and a reminder to <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TFF8Axhjj9k">watch my video</a>, for an even better look. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I'd love it if you became a subscriber to my YouTube channel. I plan to do process videos too, in the near future.</div>

Hi everyone,</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Did you see the December challenge over at the <a href="http://blog.canvascorpbrands.com/christmas-where-you-are-december-challenge-enter-to-win/">Canvas Corp Brands blog</a>? </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The moodboard is a very loose inspiration, the idea is that you create something showing us what Christmas is like where you live. You still have until January 5, 2017 to compete!</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Hoping to have sparked your imagination to create your own shabby chic and rustic Christmas decoration, I will leave you with some close-ups.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Maybe I'll see your entry in our challenge!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Hi everyone!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
How have you been? I am having so much trouble adjusting to these short and dark days. I'd love to crawl into my bed for a nice, long wintersleep. The couch is a good second though ;)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
And despite my brandnew led-lights, my craft space is still not appealing enough to me. <br />
Luckily I could find some time to craft during the weekends.<br />
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Upon seeing the color scheme of this month's Words & Paintery challenge, (which went live November 15 and will end December 15, so join us!) I immediately knew I wouldn't be doing a layout, but a mixed media item. <br />
<br />
You can find the link to the challenge here:<br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
The quote "<i>It's hard to hold a candle in the cold november rain</i>" (from the famous Guns 'n Roses song of course) is very befitting of the month and rain here, but wasn't easy to incorporate.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I decided to alter a heart shaped canvas, and went with a black background, to emphasise the darkness. The lightbulb is a substitute for the candle (which is hard to hold) and down the Relics and Artifacts Cast Visage face shape roll some tears.<br />
<br />
I would also like to submit this canvas for the <br />

Once dry (again: allow the crackle paste to AIR DRY), cover the paste (and face) in black gesso. Using several mica powders in pink shades, brush them onto the face and chipboard and spray some water to blend them.

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Brush some black gesso over the golden beads to subdue their color and make them more vintage.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Add some more metal embellishments, like the circular text tag, clock hands, little medaillon with a number, small clock, 2 pins with starshaped ends and some pink and brass wire. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The pink wire goes around the clock, the yellow around the bottle.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Repeat the splattering and add some touches of #Inkagold 'Rose Quartz' and 'Old Gold'. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
(I applied the gold shade around the edges.)</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Add some touches of Tattered Angels #Glimmerglam 'Grandma's House' where desired.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Hi all!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Recently I dragged Connor along, to a whole bunch of treetrunks near a farm I pass on my way to work. We did a photo shoot with him posing a little and playing a lot. Before taking pictures I already envisioned Connor in front of the tree circles, continuing those circles with the wood discs my father cut for me. </div>

I started out with this gorgeous sheet of #Kaisercraft paper from their 'Old Mac' collection, called 'Rusty'. Using #gelmedium I adhered it to a 12 by 12 inch canvas.</div>

Using a stencil with branches and modeling paste and the top section of an old pair of jeans from Connor, I created my background. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I cut out pieces of the pair of jeans and covered the sides of my Canvas with them. </div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
I sprayed the branches and made some drips using #Prima #colorbloomspray "Deep Teal". This spray is very opaque.</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Using black ink I stamped some text following the lines of my background. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I arranged the wood discs, both natural and smaller blue ones, behind my picture. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I added some bits of cross-patterned #woodboard too.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Behind the picture I used some circle-shaped wire.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Added some metal embellishments, wood texts and wrapped some bits of string around my picture, with a touch of jeans here and there.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Treated the wood texts with #structure paint in #cementlook, then decided they needed more #rust. I used #vivadecor #Rusty Paper and #finnabair #rustpaste throughout my entire layout to rust things.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
For a finishing touch I used #7dots text stickers, #13Arts blue mica flakes and silver microballs.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Hope you like it! Questions and comments are always welcome! </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Don't forget to play along!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Hi everyone!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I'm here to show you my interpretation of the latest Canvas Corp Brands September #challenge. It's being featured on the <i><a href="http://blog.canvascorpbrands.com/cutest-pumpkin-in-the-patch-altered-fall-wall-art/">Canvas Corp Brands blog</a></i> today! In case you're interested to know how and what I did, I'm asking that you head on over to the Canvas Corp Brands blog. I will show you some close-ups, but the step by step is on their blog.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
My little box is Autumn themed and as you can see on the moodboard, almost anything goes! The form of your art can be anything you like too. Please check out the link to their challenge and consider playing along, you have until October 5th so no excuses ;)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Not only do they have some great prizes up for grabs, you will also be invited as a guest designer in December! How cool is that? </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

Before you click the link to find out, I hope you'll have a look at some of the close-ups of my project though. The box is 8 by 8 inches big and from #Scrapiniec. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The picture shows my husband putting our boy Connor, little over 7 months back then, amidst a whole bunch of pumpkins. I wanted to continue the pumpkins '3D' and went on a miniature-pumpkin hunt some weeks before everything fall-related finally hit the stores. I succeeded in a huge garden centre though.</div>

These adorable #chipboard gates are from Scrapiniec also and I had a blast aging them. (I'll show you how on the <a href="http://blog.canvascorpbrands.com/cutest-pumpkin-in-the-patch-altered-fall-wall-art/">Canvas Corp Blog</a>!)</div>

It's getting old, but these chipboard spiderwebs are also from Scrapiniec. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The 'cutest pumpkin in the patch' was made from a wood frame and aged, chalkboard sticker and some stamping. Again, the explanation is on the Canvas Corp blog!</div>

At first the pink part of the moodboard had me worried... </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
But it blended in beautifully with the fall-themed brown and orange! </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The quote screamed 'FALL' to me. And I had the perfect picture to add to it... My pouting little boy, who refused to pose and smile for me last year during Fall. (My gosh, this picture is almost a year old?!) Suddenly the quote becomes a little sarcastic ;)</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I wanted to do this project #dreamcatcher style and decided to use this embroidery hoop of 8 inches broad. Though instead of the normal dreamcatcher 'webbing' I made a #spiderweb instead. Seemed more befitting to the theme and season! I used hemp cord to do it. (If you don't quite remember the technique from kindergarten anymore, #Google is your friend!)</div>

Since I seem to use various sorts of #rust paste on all my projects lately, this one was no exception. Viva Decor's #Rustypaper was applied to this one and allowed to dry. Once dry, I applied some #Prima #Finnabair #rustpaste as well, in the orange color. I sort of wanted to mimic wood and didn't want to use branches, and wrapping ribbon around the hoop didn't tickle my fancy either.</div>

Next step: adding ribbon and wool to the lower half of the hoop. I used some #burlap ribbon, some blended wool and later on I added some #seambinding ribbon in the exact shade of pink of the color scheme. Sadly I neglected to take pictures of the spraying of the seambinding ribbon with #TatteredAngels #glimmermist in the colors 'Peach Delight' and 'Rusty Red'. Drying this with your heatgun while you have crumpled it will give you permanent creases. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<i>Just beware not to melt the ribbon...</i></div>

Then came the time to adhere leaves, both fabric and wood, </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
and later on some acorns, to the ribbons. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I attached them with my glue gun.</div>

<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Time to embellish the center of the dreamcatcher. </div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I matted the picture onto a piece of burlap of which I frayed and inked the edges. </div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I lay the picture down onto two slices of wood and some more leaves. Added some acorns, a little wood fox, mushrooms, berries and metal leaves.</div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
When everything was in place I splattered my project with white #gesso,</div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
blended with glimmermist 'Walnut Gold'.</div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The word 'Fall' is a #Scrapiniec #chipboard of which I cut off the '#'. </div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Painted it with glimmermist #chalkboard 'Baby Pink', </div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
then added some #glimmerglam 'Golden Godess' with a brush. </div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
After that I added some one step #crackle medium.</div>

On the picture below you can see some of the seambinding ribbon on the left. Love its texture after crumpling, and the way the colors blend. Or are more like spots. Gives it a vintage feel!</div>

Hi all,</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Finally made time to blog about my most recent layout. When the days are getting shorter, I find the need to cuddle up on the couch and watch telly gets bigger... </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The #Kaisercraft paper from their 'Blue Bay Collection' had been on my mind some time already, and I had the perfect picture of Connor to use alongside with it. Or so I thought. Turns out the backgroundpapers weren't all that for my vision, so I chose another paper from the 'Craft Sensations' 'Timeless Memories' collection. </div>

I started out by stenciling a brick pattern following the lines of the pattern on the paper. I used #Prima #texturepaste #crakle white mixed with #Tatteredangels #glimmermist 'Rusty Red'. Once done I sprayed a little more of said glimmermist on the paper and sprinkled some Prima mini #artstones to emphasize the stone roughness. Then came the long wait until it had dried. </div>

The color turned out too red for my liking, so I sprayed some glimmermist 'Navyblue' over the bricks. </div>

A friend of mine, Jetty, had made some beautiful white flowers to color myself. I sprayed some of them with glimmermist 'Verdigris' and others with 'Navy Blue'. I simply love the effect the 'Verdigris' mist gives!</div>

as some additional features, I used some #Scrapiniec #chipboard backgrounds in Moroccan pattern. Small and bigger. I gave them a coat of white gesso, then blended some #13Arts gel medium with glimmermist 'Walnut Gold' and blended that with Prima mini artstones. That was applied over the pieces of chipboard.</div>

Above and below the picture I added a little Scrapiniec chipboard frame which I cut in half. First I #heat embossed it with golden embossing powder. Didn't like the outcome, added a little Tattered Angels #glimmerglam 'Tail Fin'. </div>

Hi all,</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Wanted to show you this layout that is being featured on the </div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
The picture shows a 6 month old Connor dressed in a pirate hat. So naturally, I wanted to stick with the theme! When I think of pirates I think of gold, lush green trees, skulls, ships and so on.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The quote is by Johnny Depp.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<i>"Always be yourself. Unless you can be a pirate. Then always be a pirate."</i></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I hope Connor will be himself through life. Whatever that may be. As long as he's happy.</div>

Starting out with this piece of beautifil paper from #Primamarketing, 'Perfecto' from the Cigar Box Secrets line, and this lovely vintage slide-turned-photo with my young mom on it. She was in her teens, so it was the sixties: <i>Peace, Love</i>. The picture was taken during their summer holiday: <i>flip flops.</i></div>

Using #modelingpaste and #TatteredAngels #glimmermist 'Rusty Red' and #Lindysstampgang' Starburst purple, I used a #Primamarketing #Finnabair #doilie #stencil on my paper. Usually I blend my modeling paste a little before applying it with a mist, then spray something on it once I'm done too.</div>

Sprayed the circle with #Tatteredangels #glimmermist 'Red Lobster' and 'Rusty Red'. On the left side of the paper I stenciled a bit of text with a #13Arts #stencil, modeling paste and purple mist. Sadly my mixture bled through the stencil. Hopelessly. Forcing me to stray from my initial design idea. Once again. I had to cover that left section up, so I chose to use a smaller picture on that side.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I added red and purple #flowers, red #crochet flowers my aunt made for me, a little 'Peace' charm, and the wood word LOVE.</div>

Once everything was in place I dabbed everything with white gesso, softening the colors. Added a few purple glitter #swirls and #chipboard hearts too. </div>
