 Hello Dusty FANattics, today I am here to share the MAY MOOD BOARD challenge with you and my interpretation.

Look at all of those amazing hues of blues !

THE GOOD LIFE 

This is a selfie "snapshot" of Kyden and I when we went to Hillary's Boat Harbour for a SURPRISE joint 60th birthday party for Nana and Pappy. It was a great evening, nice food and shuttleboard to play, and needless to say they where very surprised that we where all there to help them celebrate.

I have started with the gorgeous Marrakesh stencil and some blue ink to add some pattern into the background. 

I have then painted my Lacey Frame (large) in white spray paint and left to dry whilst painting my other chippy pieces.

The stunning Lacey Flowers I have painting in one blue hue then added darker paint around the outside in an ombre effect. I have then added twine with knots in it as the centre stamens.

Both the mini title "The Good Life" and "Snapshot" are  painted with the same blue paints as the flowers. To finish off my flower composition I have added a little "happy notes" wordplay strip.  

To enter is super duper easy, just add your take into the comments section in the

Hello dear Blog Friends...

I think this Family photo fit the Dusty Attic Moodboard just perfectly! I teamed the Dusty Attic Chipboards with papers from the 49 & Market Vintage Artistry Collection as well as Flowers, Washi Tape and Rub-ons.

 

I used Red Blaze Gilding Flakes from Cosmic Shimmer on the Love Arrows and the Tropical Foliage Leaves. The Lacey Flowers are painted with Crackling Campfire and Speckled Egg Distress Paint and embossed with Speckled Egg Distress Embossing Glaze. 

I did some distressing, hand stitching and layering with paper strips on the top and bottom of the layout. I took the Title for the page from this 49 & Market Rub-on sheet. 

From the Dusty Attic On-line Shop I used the following Chipboard pieces...
