The Dusty Attic Blog: Favourite Moment - Belinda Spencer

Hello Dusty FANattics!

Long time no see!

I thought it was time to dust off the cobwebs and share my latest layout for The Dusty Attic inspired by the July Moodboard.

Favourite Moment

I was inspired by the mood board to create a really pretty and girly layout using some Heidi Swapp papers I have had in my stash for aaaages!

Here's a peek at the gorgeous mood board:

So pretty!!

I really love the Impact Titles and used my edited version of 'Favourite Moments' for my title. I simply decided not to use the 's' on the end to make the title fit my photo. I painted it with three coats of heavy white gesso first and then added some Heidi Swapp Colour Shine to the 'Moment'.

I used a torn piece of the 12 x 12 Chicken Wire on my background that I stapled in place. I left it raw to co-ordinate with the rustic feel of my photo of my daughter posing in our hay shed. I then layered the Swirly Flourishes on top. The flourishes were painted with three coats of heavy white gesso and left as is because I love the crispness of bright white embellishments.

I slipped in some pretty Blooms # 4 to match the roses on my daughter's dress. These I gave the gesso treatment before adding some Heidi Swapp Colour Shine.
