Hi there peeps, thanks for stopping by. Today I have another layout
to share with you featuring my sweet little grandaughter Mia. This is part of my March DT work for Maja Designs.
I have
used some papers from their "Vintage Summer Basics" collection.
These are the two Maja Design papers I have used.
The paper on the left is the "1934" paper & the one on the right is the "1933" paper.
For my background I have used the "1934" paper from the Vintage Summer
Basics collection
& I have layered it over the top of the "1933"
paper, that is the gorgeous floral one that is
peeping out of both sides
of my layout. It is a little hard to see unfortunately.
Also behind the photo I have added lots of different strips of various
Maja Design papers,
then I wiped them over with some gesso before
brushing on some pink coloured mist to
contrast with the lovely aqua
background paper.
This is a great fun little technique as it is a good way to use up lots
of your scraps & it
also adds great textural interest to the page.
Plus the Maja papers are so nice & thick
that they are perfect for
using with mixed media. Last step was to stencil some
pattern over the
page using a stencil & some texture paste.
Once the background was all dry I proceeded to add my photo, chipboard &
of course, lots of flowers.
All of the chipboard I have used is from 2Crafty Chipboard.
