JACQUELINE MOORE  

 

Hi Dusty Attic fans!!! It's Jacqueline here today to share with you a quick canvas I made based on this month's moodboard. When I first saw the colors I was like oh no I can't use those together. While they looked stunning in the picture, red is just not me. The more I looked at the picture though and thought about how pretty the red and green looked together, the more I wanted to try it.

 

 Here is what I came up with:

'Forever'

I wanted the hearts to be the feature of the canvas, so I have simply painted them white with a couple of coats of Gesso so that they really stand out against the reds and greens.

Some details:

For my title I have taken the word 'Forever' from the Word Pack 19. I have simple colored it with black ink, then used a white gel pen to outline the letters. 

I have layered the middle sized Lacey Heart Frame above a cluster of flowers, then placed a die-cut flower and a few other flowers on top, before adding the smallest Lacey Heart Frame and my title on top.

 

 I have taken 2 of theses leafy stems from Foliage #2 and placed one on either side of the canvas. I have used Gel Medium to attach some Glass microspheres from 13 Arts, then painted them both with Metallic green paint.

I finished off by adding a few hearts from the Mini Hearts #2 pack, with I have covered in Chunky Gold Glitter.

That's all from me today. 

I hope you have enjoyed my post!! I will be back again soon with more to share.

Fabulous - Lizzy Hill (Tutorial)

Those of you who know me will know that flowers aren't my 'thing'. I find them hard to use at the best of times.

You will also know I ADORE a challenge. Even a self imposed one.

I was blessed to receive a good dose of flowers in my DA kit.

So, I figured it would be fun to see if I could use them. And I think I've done OK.

 A couple of the cards I made you can see HERE.

This is the third of the batch, which I saved so I could do a step by step.

So here we go!

I gessoed over some white card stock, then added a stencil.

The seed beads stick well to wet molding paste!

I'm using the card on the right below:

 

Next I added some DUSTY ATTIC RAISIN  & DENIM PAINTS, watered down, with a sponge brush:

You can see I've dabbed off with a bit of paper towel, if the colour was too strong.

I've also used a water mister to keep my paper dampish, so the paint didn't dry too quickly.

Then using my finger, I added some CASHMERE into the mix, to lighten it all up:

I decided to cover my background with Gel Medium - to make sure the seed beads stayed in place.

Inspiration struck & I added some glitter at this stage!

While this was drying, I fussied up my Elegant Swirls #3 & #13 with gesso, then some DA paint:

Then added these & some DA flowers [Smokey Blue, Vintage Rose & Evening Blush]:

My sentiment was stamped, fussy cut, then dabbed with some of the left over paint.

 Once this was attached, I went over all the flowers with some gesso on a sponge.

Et voila! The bird cages can be found HERE.

 I've also added a few sequins:

 The whole card:

Hope this makes you itchy to get scrapping!

Cheers ~ Lizzy
