Heather Jacobs Layout showcase revisited

Good Morning all Dusty FANattics, 

Today on the blog I wanted to showcase one of our spectacular former DT members and Brand Ambassador

 This layout was created in December 2015 and is as beautiful today as it was 6 years ago, plus what is so awesome about Dusty Attic products is that you can still order these designs from the online store.    HOLIDAY

Remember you can now buy the dusty attic chippies direct from the website . DUSTY ATTICthe paints are just the best to work with and a whole range of perfect colors .

DISCOVER 

One of my passions is fossicking around unusual shops . Looking for ideas and interesting pieces of furniture .
While driving in the Adelaide Hills I found this industrial / charming shop
just oozing with hidden treasures .

Feather Charms #3 /DA1382

This image shows a close up of the Ornate pendants #4 /DA 1367
I trimmed and cut the pendant 
stained and finished the  pieces with glossy accent 
and layered them between some paper diecut tags . 
I adore the versatility of the chipboard .
and by trimming the pieces it creates interest
 and allows them to go further .
