 of the papers to have sitting in my stash.... LOL!

This layout features myself AGAIN!  
I know right! SHOCK HORROR....
 twice in 1 month.... 

BUT I just couldn't resist it with Annabelle Acrylic
 recently releasing some new products 
& this title 'But first COFFEE' title &
 I had a photo that I had taken this selfie
 a few months back, it perfectly with this GORGEOUS paper range....
'But first COFFEE'


Papers used from paper pack : Aurora No.2 ,
The Other side No.3 , Pearls No.6
 & a few images from the bonus sheet,
a few of the Prima Nightfall pearls,

Which I did alter a little,
 by applying some black heavy gesso to COFFEE!!

Anna's Craft Cupboard - ABStudio Shabby Love Symphony 'Sympohny of love'

Hello Everyone! 
Back with you to share
 my second layout created this month using the STUNNING! 
AB Studio - Shabby love symphony paper pack! 

This time focusing on the green & blue tones
 to create this layout that features 
my son & his grandmother (my mother)
'Symphony of Love'


Using papers from the pack - 
Pink Scents N0.4 , The other side N0.3 
Open this Window No.8, Pearl No.6
& the beautiful clock image fussy cut from the Bonus sheet... 
 Adding stamping using a variety of
 Kaisercraft stamps! 
some Prima gold Coast flowers & the green leaves,
then incorporating leaves that
I had created using a leaf stamp 
& colouring the centres, blue...
also a couple Prima Georgia blue 
Vellum butterlfies...
 finishing it off with white splatters!!!

 



YOU may have notice that the blue flowers on my layout, 
look different than the Prima flowers photo??
WELL THAT"S because they are....
I wasn't really liking the look of these flowers
 with the little gem in the centres for this layout,
 so I removed the centres & created 
my own using some clear glue & Prima Cooper Micro beads...
 That look pretty cool if i do dsay so myself! lol!!








I have more to share & will very soon.. so be sure to stop again soon...

a  couple medium Steampunk gears
Corner Steampunk 2
Blood Sweat & Gears


Starting with the perect title for this page
 'Blood, Sweat & Gears' & 2019
Both inked with black...


To incorporate the assortment of stars used for 
the page I inked the ATC - Tiny Stars and
other sized stars with either black or brown.....


The base page used, already had a great steampunk cluster image
SO I decided to ink a the Steampunk Strip with a teal,
adhering it over part of the image, then finishing it with a
couple of the Medium Steampunk gears that I had inked blue....




Lastly the Corner Steampunk 2 
I randomly inking this again with a brown & the 
adding another Medium Steampunk gear

Finalizing my layout with splattering of gold paint...


Hopefully I hve inspired you in some way  
 to create your next masculine page...
