Grateful - Lynette Jacobs - Mood Board Inspiration

  Hello Dusty Attic Fans!

Lynette here, welcome to the blog today. I am sharing my take on the August mood board...and it is a stunning one this month.  I decided that I wanted to document a photo taken on Mothers Day this year.  

The moodboard:

The gorgeous Pink fresh Studio, Just a Little Lovely patterned paper was just perfect for the background and I added some hand stitching to emphasize the photo.

The Dusty Attic chipboard used for this project:

Foliage #27

Frangipani small

Iron Accent #1

Mini foliage #2

Word Pack #45

I painted some of the chipboard and heat embossed the others

I attached my background paper to some dark blue cardstock and then added some texture to the background.  

I wanted to keep the layers neutral and therefore added some vellum and a white doily behind my photo.  The Iron Accents were heat embossed and used as "photo corners".

There was already enough colour in the photo and on the background paper so I used grey photos and painted the chipboard frangipani flowers a dusky purple.  The leaves were also painted.

I love the impact the iron accents make and layered the heat embossed title over the photo.

I used one of the corners of the stitched design on the background as the place to add my second floral cluster.  I then finished my page by adding some enamel dots to the clusters.
