Yep, I'm back again with some more delights
for you all and this time it is the usual two creations
jam-packed with some awesome
The first is a canvas that features one of my
life's loves in that of my Son and the other is a layout
featuring another love being my Daughter (with her partner).
Live Life
& Make The Most Of Today
front and side to give a bit of texture.
On these I sprayed colours to enhance the stencilling.
Next I layered hessian, paper & corrugated cardboard (all
of earthy colours) to match the design I was
looking for as a background for the photo.
Added to these background components I also
applied colours like I did with the canvas
piece of that same border at the top alongside
a hand crafted barbed wire.
wasn't big enough for what I wanted so I adapted two.
into an oval to highlight the subject.
I am never at a loss with the massive selection Scrapmatts
was where my search ended for the canvas title...

You & Me
The base of this one starts like many layouts with a
piece of patterned paper over cardstock.
The purpose of placing the bulk of the work to the
lower section was to create space for the lamp
and for it to look like it was illuminating the image.
for the picture I had chosen and the sheer size of it
meant it was going to be the main focus point.
Behind this I placed a bit of coloured gauze and
littered the page with an accompaniment of
flowers and embellishments.
A little depth was added to the photo by placing a
small scrap of cardboard behind it.
This close up gives an idea of how the gauze was
layered and how well it worked and
softened the edge of the stencils
married well with the overall look & theme
Without these two large flowers the layout was looking
bare & unfinished and I was pleased with
the fullness they afforded.
