A lovely autumn page using some of my latest kit from Thompsons craft supplies, i also added from my stash but all of it is available from Louise.
Autumn fun

Using the 13arts grungy wall papers-Damaged for my back ground.
  I toyed with adding to to it but the paper was so nice on its own it had everything it needed so i decided to leave it alone.


i added some of the cork, a bit to mount my photo on one corner and then a torn piece as my base.

i used another paper from the 13arts paper range this time from the Summer Rhapsody set- Rose rhapsody, i fussy cut some of the roses, they matched my back ground sheet perfectly.


i added some mdf leaves and my title from the creative expressions range also from Louise, all painted in Fabrica Decoru shabby velour paints in vintage green, i also inked the title a little with black.

i layered all my pieces around my photo using 3d foam pads and 3d gel and then added some paper flowers and some sequins here and there around my central design.

lastly i splattered using watered down prima metallique paint-steampunk copper, i covered my photo while i did my splattering.

Remember the now -Notebook

I am addicted to notebooks, i just love making them, this is a ready made notebook that i have decorated the cover.
using some of my latest kit from Thompsons craft supplies
using the 13arts Grungy walls papers and some other items from Louise's shop, the leaf stencil, the distress ink sprays and micro beads.

firstly i gesso'd my notebook cover, i then tore and layered mypapers to make a decoupage back ground which i then used a heavy body paste through my stencils, when this was dry i then gently brushed over with some watered down gesso .


i fussy cut another of the papers and layered these on using some 3d foam and 3d gel to make some height on my cover, i found an mdf fence and used a paint mix and some ink to colour it, again using the 3d gel to fix it on.
i went over it all with a clear gesso, this then allows me to add my ink and be able to move it around on the page before i dry it.
i dropped on my ink and used a water spray to mix and move it aorund and then dried with my heat gun.


i added  my title and when it was all dry i added some 3d gel and the micro beads, and lastly my flower.
