Hello,today I am here to share with you a couple LO’s I did. This is the first one using the Beautiful Coffee in the Arbour Collection….

I used:white daisies,white daisies-BS,blueberry cupcake & lemon meringue pie-BS

The chipboard used is from Dusty Attic

The butterflies are from LittleScrapShop

Here are some closeups of detail….

 

I just love this photo of little Cass,she is so adorable……

I did my usual,distressed, hand stitched layers. I also did some punch work,tearing & stencil work….

I made the daisy’s,using coffee filters, a MFT die cut. I used DA dots for the centers,painted them yellow,then applied glossey accents & micro beeds…

This is where I did the stencil work using the crafters workshop stencil “Art is” (6×6).I used Viva champain modelling cream.  On the alpha I used picket fence crackle,once the crackle dried I rubbed in brown chalk & inked the edges…..

I dipped the leaves in water,then separated the chipboard,I then used a heat gun to dry the leaves,it helps to make them curl up. My next step was to paint the leaves,using green paint & once the paint dried I applied a coat of rock candy crackle. Once the crackle dried I rubbed in some white paint,using my finger (this brings out the cracks & tones down the green)….

I used: When leaves are falling,when leaves are falling-BS,mountain ash-BS,die cut letters-BS & a BS of a label

The chipboard used is from Dusty Attic

Here are some closeups of detail…..

I stained all the chipboard with walnut stain,on the buds I used chestnut liquid pearls….

I painted the leaves with TH distress paint,& once that dried I applied a thick coat of crackle. I let the crackle dry then applied lime twist TA & once that dried I rubbed in some rust chalk….

Shows distressed layers that I had inked the edges with walnut stain. I also did some stencil work,using a Kaiser craft stencil & Viva modeling cream. Once the cream dried I rubbed in some chalk….
