Hello to all my crafty friends!!! It's a very hot and very humid day here in the Sunshine State!!! Hope you're having beautiful weather wherever you may be :-)
"Fly" with 7 Dots Studio "Cold Country" Collection
I'm on the blog today to share a layout I created as a Guest Designer for a new challenge site called Scrap and Play Challenges! I was given the following sketch to work with:
I used the 7 Dots Studio "Cold Country" Collection from the Frosted Designs Store to create this layout:
I LOVE love LOVE this line!!!! Aren't the paper just gorgeous?!?
I started the page by creating a die-cut using one of my Super8 punches. I distressed the edges lightly, then used Dusty Concorde Distress Ink and a waterbrush pen to create the purple hue around the edges. I finished it off with black distress ink for more contrast against the background paper.
Then I used various pieces and inks to create circles around the page:
I used a Spectrum Noir marker to add a purple hue around the photo as well, then went over it with my White Uniball Pen from the Frosted Designs Store!
I added various Petaloo and Prima flowers to the corner of the photo, tucking in some Tim Holtz Film Strip ribbon in areas.
I misted some trim with Lindy's Stamp Gang Starburst Pearls mist until I achieved the color I wanted, then tucked it under the photo for contrast against the purples!
There are several quote stickers included with this collection, so I chose a few and added a small poem at the bottom!
I finished the page with Studio Calico wood veneer stars that were colored using White Dylusions spray!!
Well gang... Thanks so much for stopping in and have a LUCKY day :-)
