Hi everyone! Today I am bringing you a layout that I have used last month's mood board and taken inspiration not only
from the colours, but also the image. I have taken the
opportunity to scrap about my love of coffee!
A quick reminder of the board
I had the perfect Dusty Attic title and
coffee cup embellishment for this layout, and with the addition of a few
chipboard word embellishments, my layout came together so easily. I will take
you through what I have used and what techniques I applied.
I used shades of dark brown to bring in
that colour from the mood board into my layout. Starting with the title, I rubbed
it with a bronze Prima wax. My tip is to apply the wax lightly over the
engraved words so that you don’t fill the words in. You are better to add
several light layers than one heavy layer. I love the effect that the waxes
give as they have a beautiful luster.

I used the same wax to colour the word
disk. Again, adding the wax in thin layers so as to not fill in the engraved
words. I popped the word disk onto of the cluster of flowers that I made in
colours from the mood board.

I used an umber brown acrylic paint to
paint the cup of coffee embellishment and I then lightly rubbed some of the
bronze wax onto the steam rising above the mug.
I then painted the Daily #4 word (#happy
place) with an ombre effect using the same umber paint with the wax added to
only the bottom part of the words.

I hope you have a chance to get some
creative time in soon.
