"Soulful Friendship"


Hello Everyone,
Im going to start by showing you the BACK of my project this time!
I have used four of the 3D ATC's and two of the ATC Shadow Boxes joined
together (the wood is to make the back even as they are different widths)



Lots and Lots and Lots of Mini Bricks were used 
(Me and my ruler - glueing the bricks down)

And now the front ......
A coat of Gesso
Then some sprays and the final white mist is the
Dusty in Colour White Navaho mixed with water in a
spray bottle and lightly sprayed over the whole piece
Time to decorate !!!








LOVE the Dusty Attic Minis - they are perfect for this project

Images are from Megs Garden own paper range
and the resin pieces are from moulds I have from
Moulds by Mel

Friendship......

A stroll back to the car from seeing the awesome Wave Rock with my gorgeous friend Tina - arm in arm just chatting, turned into this awesome photo thanks to Evana (and her battery in the camera lasting for ONE last shot ) and THEN the marvy Michelle Grant worked her magic on it and added the special effects to it !!!

I have used the Dusty Attic December Sketch as my start off point. That totally rockin paper is from 7 Dots Studio and designed by none other than Finnabair (Anna) - I have started by stamping the background with different stamps and inks - Then added all of the devine chipboard !!! The Grasses, Mini trees (I have used the negative behind them with ink first) and that great typewriter font letters are all from the new release but I have also used some of my favs, the brick wall, the branches and the little bird and small florishes. THEN I have done " the Finn" and covered my photo and sprayed Glimmer Mist in different colours all over my layout.

Love - Dusty Attic and Websters papers product swap

At the beginning of the month Dusty Attic and Webster's (devine papers and embellishments) had a product swap which was so much fun - The Dustettes got to play with their paper and they got to have some devine Dusty pieces for their work.

Sisters Shadow Box

This is a photo of My Nana and her Sister, They are both still going strong and well at 91 and 89 years young!!! - Now since my Nan doesnt have a computer I can put this up AND tell you its for her Christmas Present.

I love Shadow Boxes and Jennifer from Dusty Attic
did a 6x6 one - DA0683 (I think to just stop me from nagging her LOL) - She has already got an 8x8 and a 12x12 one so all that was missing was the small one right ?!?!?!?
THEN
She also did this amazing Garden Tile Frame set that can go with it !!! - and yep she did the tile frame in the bigger sizes as well because she is awesome like that really !!!


I know I said I would be back with a layout of Kyden - Sorry - I will do that one soon ... BUT hey
TWO blogposts in TWO days !!!! OhMyGawd... ring Ripleys Hahahaha

Wishing everyone a terrific and happy weekend
