Tropical state of Mind - Amy Voorthuis

Goodmorning sweeties,

Welcome to this lovely today, I am back after being sick with a nasty flue for more then three weeks and I am dreaming to have some warmer weather so for today I made a a summer layout with one of Camilla {from Maja Design} her daughters on their vacation to Italy last summer. For this layout I used the gorgeous "Enjoying outdoors" collection. I also used some of the fancy clocks from the clock sheet from the "Vintage Autumn Basics" collection through out my layout.

Tropical State of Mind: 

I just love the way Camilla takes her pictures most of the time when her girls don't see it. The chipboards I used are treated with gesso, rust effect paste military set and antique brilliance amethyst magic both by finnabair. All the flowers are by 49 and Market. I got the idea of using my chipboards like this by our very own Tina {thank you for your amazing talent xox}

I used some of the amazing new background 49 and Market stamps 1787 & Flowery Tile designed by Pascale on the Flourishing bs sheet. they I took out my fishnet stencil by Dusty Attic to add on several places on my layout. Underneath my picture & flowers clusters I added some cheese cloth.

After I treated my background I added three horizontal papers strips from the picking flowers sheet and placed the on the top, bottom and just above the bottom to get a flow in my design. And at the end I added some 3d balls and some shells to finish this layout.

Goodmorning Dusty Attic Fans, 

Today I'd like to show you a layout that I created for this months mood board this one was right up my ally with all the pink and flowers very girly and all. For this layout I used gorgeous "Birdsong" papers by Karola Witczak, some of the new flower packs by 49 and Market and some gorgeous chipboard pieces....

Captured: 

I treated the chipboard pieces with white gesso, rust paste, acrylic paint and waxes to get the effect I wanted for it. The picture I used is one that I printed out a while back I really loved the colors and the gorgeous hat she has on with the pretty flowers. 

I really love this months mood board don't you love it too?

Lets Celebrate / Positive Vibe - Amy Voorthuis

Goodmorning lovelies, 

Today I'd like to show you set of tags this time they are a masculine set with some of my favorite chipboards on them. One I made for my dad since he will turn 68 on the 5th of February. For these tags I used the wonderful new "Celebration" collection by Maja Design so you can see that you can also make something for men to only add some steampunk chippies.I was inspired by this months moodboard....

Lets Celebrate / Postive Vibe

I would have never guessed flowers and sequins can also look so great on a masculine project but they really do, don't you think so too? The size of the tags are 10 cm by 15 cm and I cut the patterned at 4 cm and the other part 6 cm. Then I stamped on there with two different background stamps after that I sprayed with two Lindy's sprays to soften the black a little then I added a stencil and some cheese cloth.

I am totally hooked on making tags they are so much fun to make and you can make a whole bunch of them in just the same time as you make a layout. But don't worry I will not stop making layouts I am too hooked on them.

The Dusty Attic products used: 

 DA0405 - Mini Chains 10pk, DA1673 - Crazy Stitching Small, DMCS3195 - White Sunshine Sequins, 49 and Market/Dusty Attic - 6x6 Timeless {black}, DA0702 - Decorative Frame #1.

You Rock - Amy Voorthuis

Goodmorning lovelies, 

Here my first post for this month a layout made with some amazing papers Jennifer got me and a bunch of amazing Dusty Attic chipboards. For this layout I used a picture of my husband well his tattoo for most part. I gessod the chipboard pieces and then added some waxes in different shades over the gesso, I sprayed some of the flowers in a black shade to match my papers with some Lindy's the flower are by 49 and Market. Some of the chippies are already in a black color so I only had to add some wax on them.

You Rock: 

  The gorgeous saying "You Will Forever Be My Always" is only gessod. The stitches chipboards are so wonderful to use because you can bend them really easy. After I added the flowers I sprayed some white paint on my layout and added some metal pieces too. 

The layout exists out of six layers of paper the papers are by The Blue Fern Studio's and when I saw these papers I instantly fell in love but they we not for sale here in The Netherlands so dear Jennifer Hedger send them to me {thank you dear}....
