Live your own Adventure - Aleksandra Mihelic

Hello hello dear Dusty Attic friends and fans. 

I'm here on the blog with you today to share my latest Dusty Attic inspriation with you. I decided to go all grungy and masculine today. I used this gorgeous photo that I bought on one of the pages with Stock photographies. I immediately fell in love with it and with all gorgeous grungy Dusty Attic chipies it was just a match made in Heaven. I also used some beautiful 49 and Market papers to go along and compliment them both and added several Finnabair parts and colors too. I hope you'll like my project. 

Here is the list of gorgeous Dusty Attic chipboards I used for this project:

- Cog Border #1,

- Cog Border #3,

- Industrial Corners,

- Number Panel Large,

- Skeleton Clock Face Small,

- Blueprint Journey,

- Live your own Adventure.

I used the paper from 49 and Market latest collection "Old School" for the background. I then colores my chipboards with Finnabair Rust paste brown and red rust and went on top with a bit of a Taupe Rose Rust effect paste from Anemone and Coral set to match the color of the car on the photo. On top of the upper chipboards I also used some Firebird Finnabair wax. I then added some cut outs from 49 and Market "Old School" and Ethereal collection and some Finnabair mechanical pieces. For finishing touch I added some micro beads, some gold glass glitter and some gold paint splashes. 

I hope you enjoyed my today's inspiration. Thank you for stopping by and see you soon again. 

Hugs, Aleksandra

Love Always - Farrel Tailor - Mood Board Inspiration

Hi there Dusty Attic Lovers!!! Farrel here to share with you all my interpretation of this month's mood board.

I will not lie, I found the colours of this mood board quite hard as purple (any shade of it) is a hard colour for me to work with but I love pushing the boundaries and ended up having a lot of fun creating this layout.

For the patterned paper I used 7 Dots Garden Party - the colours matched the mood board perfectly. Along with flowers by Little Birdie and Plum Preserve Metallique Acrylic Paint by Finnabair.

The sketch grid stencil I used in the background is by The Crafter's Workshop and I used Paper Texture Paste by Finnabair. I also added some art stones and beads to the flowers.

I covered the Geometric Panel pieces in black gesso and used Art Alchemy Waxes. For the Clockworks chipboard, I covered in white gesso and used the waxes and some archival inks and finally for the title I used archival ink on word "Always" after I painted the words in white gesso.
