{Hashtag} #selfie!

Good morning fellow scrappers!

So this months Teal and Red mood board, 

took me completely out of my comfort zone.

These are not the colours I would normally scrap, 

what a fantastic challenge!

This is my selfie queen daughter (Meghan), 

who got me to pose with her, just for a change!

For the back ground I used the stencil Distressed Grid with a mixture of Clover and Mint Green inks, as well as on the the two Tags. 

For the Red tag I used Glimmer mist Cherry spray. Once dry I stamped ruler stamp.

For the Titles I used and chippie, 

I painted with Candied Apple and I painted the dry wall tape as well.

I also used butterfly ribbon, Black thread, Prima and hand made flowers.

I really hope I inspire someone, to step out of there comfort zone!

Happy Scrapping

Hello scrappy friends,

So this is my take on this month’s mood board!

A simple, yet effective canvas, 

using this stunning photo of my friends little girl.

I went garden shopping,

YES I found the bark and the seeds, in the garden. 

All I did was dry them in the oven, for a bit.

I prepared the canvas by using Tim Holtz Distress paint Antique linen and rubbing on with a wet wipe.

I then die cut my leaves, and inked them by spraying water first and adding Cherry and walnut and again spraying with water to get the desired effect.

 I then painted my foliage with rust paint –Brown and adding cherry to the ends. I painted the small foliage and fancy frame with Sparks Magical paint.

For my title I used Sparks Red Wine paint.

Added splats stencil to the canvas using Tim Holtz – Vintage photo and Black soot and touching with Sparks magical paint.

Then putting everything together and adding grassy straw and gluing everything down.

(Just so you know I’m a fan of hot glue and it sticks)

I hope you have fun!
