Country Life - Kerstin Filou - Mood board inspiration

 

Welcome creative friends!

Our monthly Moodboard is an absolutely wonderful inspiration, 

love the romance charm and the delightful colors.

 

We loved going to grandma's in the country during the summer holidays 

when we were kids. Wonderful, carefree times that we remember fondly today.

 

 

 

 

I used a matching colour background paper from 

13@arts 'Sunrise' collection.

wide open SPACES - Nicole Doiron - Mood Board Inspiration

 

Hello everyone visiting the Dusty Attic blog today!

This is Nicole and I am here to share with you

my project inspired by the October mood board challenge.

 

 

Here is the beautiful October mood board:

 

I absolutely love the colour palette and the Autumn feel of this board.

 

It inspired me to create a layout of the countryside with lots of of same warm hues.

 

I started with picking out my pictures and found some gorgeous shots of a sheep pasture and vast fields of green taken while on a ride through the country.

 

I chose the title Wide Open Spaces which seemed perfect.

I searched my Dusty Attic stash and took out several country and farm themed chipboard, including the tall Windmill and a piece of the Large Paddock Fence as well as a Wagon Wheel.

 

 

I decided to treat all my chipboard with Ranger Distress Stains in different shades of brown.

 

I wanted to keep everything as earthy looking as possible.  

 

 

I added a couple Mini Compasses colored in black.

 

I even kept some of the chippies bare to go along with the kraft color on my page.

Below you see a piece of the beautiful Wheat. I find it to be such an intricate piece!

 

I think I captured the essence of the mood board quite well.  What do you think?

 

 

Now let's see all the Dusty Attic chipboard that I used:
