This Was Super Fun - Jen Burns - Mood Board Inspiration

  

How awesome does this Tree Climb walk look right at our own backdoor at Yanchep National Park? Kyden and his Brothers had "Super Fun" 
The new 3Quarter Designs with Dusty Attic new collection called "Incredible Journeys" is perfect for these photos.

I have started with one of the new awesome Collage Frameworks Frames and painted with Stamperia Grey paint Dark to light Ombre style with dry brushing some light highlights. I have also painted the Hexagons by Nuneka the same way and added them to the sides of the framework.

The Toadstools pack 1 and 2 have been painted to look like mushrooms and layered at the bottom Cluster along with some foliage and mini Cobblestones.

"This was Super Fun" title was painted with Stamperia paints in an ombre fashion starting with Tortora at the top then Cappuccino and finished with Mattone which has also been used to paint the mini Filmstrips. Super Gold has been dry brushed over the top to add highlights.

Magical Book Nook - Deb Stephens - Mood Board Inspiration

Hello all you Dusty Attic Fans and Welcome to my May Moodboard Project, a Magical Book Nook!

This project started with a Blank Dusty Attic Book Nook #1 (DA3354), some resin Trees , an empty Pringals can, and DA3464 Wood Panel Stencil, DA3461 Magical Stencil and DA1760 Leaves #3 Stencil. I used the Stencils on the inside and outside walls of the Book Nook to add texture. I also added paste through the wood panel stencil onto the can and let it dry. I dampened the DA3487 Fairy Doors #2 Sml with water and curved it around the can until it curved without splitting and adhered it into place.

This is the inside of one of the walls after the stenciling had dried and I had applied paints and waxes. I LOVE this new wood panel stencil.

The tree was finished with DA0562 Mini Fairies. sections were cut out and battery operated lights were fed into the tree to make an illuminated backdrop.

DA3471 Magic Mushrooms Mixed were painted and finished in glossy accents to give more dimension. These are also some of my new favourite Dusty Attic chippy's.

DA0829 - Mini Cobblestones were sprayed with colour and added for a pathway along with DA 3469 – Mini Gems and Crystals. I also added a layer of glow in the dark paste to the crystals and sprayed with some glitter so they would glow once the light were out. Glitter crystal filler stones were used on either side of the pathway and fake moss was added as well.

On the inside of the roof after it was painted, more glow in the dark paste was stenciled through the Magical stencil. it was very difficult to take a clear photo of the paste as it glowed, but I thought I would add it here anyway, even though its not a good photo.

The outside long walls were textured through the stencils, DA0873 Corner Flourish #4 was added, then painted and waxed.

Here are some more close up photos of the inside. I have used the lights and wrapped them around various parts of the Book Nook to create more light and highlight those mushrooms and crystals.

I hope you get inspired by the Mood board and by this project, to make one of your own Book Nooks.

Love Completely - Aneta Nasonkowska

 Hi all!

This is my first spring entry this year and it cannot be otherwise - you're greeted by a spring layout full of flowers for a couple in love with gardening. For years, they have been caring for their garden together, with joy, passion and love. This is how beautiful their relationship is, which has been going on for 40 years! It's true that you can see here in the photo of me and my husband on our wedding day (I must respect the privacy of my wonderful clients) but in the original there is a lovely couple in love here. I was asked to make a design in shades of duck egg with white and gray accents. Plants forced the presence of the green color additionally.
