Hello
and welcome as always to my blog. I would like to share with you my
latest page using this months DT challenge over at Off The Rails. I loved the mood board and
chose to use the Christmas papers I had that are in purples as it's my
favorite colour. The photo is of my girlfriends daughter Meghan which was taken at her ballet concert some years ago.
For my page I chose to tear the papers and to put creases and folds on the edges.
The patterned papers I used are Kaisercraft - Christmas Jewel Collection
I also chose two silver doily's. I just love silver and purple together for Christmas themes.
I
also used Kaiercraft Wooden Snowflake Flourishes. I started by painting
them with a Silver Paint Pen. Once that was dry I then placed Wink Of
Stella Silver of the top just to give a bit more of a sparkle to them.
Once
the Wink Of Stell was dry I then used Prima Sparks Acrylic Paint - Iris
Potion on all the round ball ends. This paint is so sparkly and really
made them pop.
As most would know I do live to fussy cut and have fussy cut the reindeer and holly from the patterned papers.
I
loved this photo of Meghan as a Christmas Angle but the surrounding
didn't go with papers I had chose so I also fussy cut the photo of her.
Once I had done this it was perfect with the papers. To place the photo
on the page I used dimension tabs to lift her up from the background.
All that was left to do was to put my page together and I was finished.
I
hope you have enjoyed seeing my take on this months challenge and
remember there is still plenty of time to join in with us and do the
Christmas shopping so please hop on over to Off The Rails you could be the December lucky winner..
Happy Crafting xxx
