'lifetime'.... a new layout for Scraps of Elegance

Hello dear readers....

Today I am sharing my latest layout for Scraps of Elegance...

'lifetime'

The wonderful kit from February is sold out, but stay tuned...March's kit will be released very soon!

Please go here to see the Scraps of Darkness store....and here for the blog.

Here are a few close ups...

I have used the the other side of the Prima Epiphany paper 'Words to Live By' for the base. From there I used the white texture paste that came with the kit and a Prima scroll stencil and spread a very thick and uneven coat of paste to create some great texture. I then went in with a beautiful Lindy's Stamp Gang mist called Buccaneer Bronze ( a lovely milk chocolate mist with gold undertones) with a small paintbrush to try to get the mist only in the cracks. It created an amazing look, like cracked worn plaster or old peeled paint. I also added a little bit of pink Ranger Distress Paint in Spun Sugar.

Then I sewed some strips of white cotton and built up some layers using pieces of the Epiphany paper that came with the kit, a Blue Fern Studios chipboard piece that I painted white, and some Prima flowers. The pink and brown flowers came from the kit as well as the pearl piece that I removed from the center of one of the Prima flowers.

The final touch was the beautiful bronze colored Mica Flakes that also came with the kit which I sprinkled around the page that gave a gorgeous shimmer and sparkle and perfectly matched with the bronze mist....

I would like to participate in the current challenge at Scrapclub, their spring moodboard is just gorgeous. I was inspired by the soft shabby flowers and ultra feminine feel of the photos. Looking for some shabby chic eye candy? I can scroll through this blog just daydreaming over all the pretty cards.

Here is the moodboard...

This layout is dedicated to my husband and best friend of 15 years!!!

Time flies when you're having fun.....

Thanks for stopping by!

Hugs always, Lisa xo
