Love the way you smile

Hello all, Rhonda here to share with you my 2 DT Projects for this month...

This is my "Love The Way You Smile" layout
and is my first project for this month.
I created this layout using some of the gorgeous new

Chipboard and Stencils available from

'Scrapmatts'

I started off using a cut down piece of 12 x 12 Patterned Paper then
decided on using ST 1008 Cracks and instead of using texture paste
I used a new acrylic paint which gave the background a real
shimmery affect!

I then cut 2 smaller pieces of paper from the same paper range and distressed
the edges of them both. On the top one I added some hot pink acrylic paint to some texture paste and used the ST 1031 Hearts.

I then added the quote from

CB6103 Scrap Words 21.

I used CB 5132 Chains 01 to encase Rochelle's face, and added a few

of the words from CB 1238 Scrap Words 24 and then added the

angelic wings CB 1120 Wings 01

I finished of using off using all the chipboard pieces by adding

CB 2003 Page Borders 02 after cutting it in half and adding opposite pieces to

opposite corners to give it the look that it goes all the way underneath the layout...

Then I found a piece of recycled corrugated card board and have

used that as the backing...

My 2nd Project is a set of three tags...

For these I used chipboards, charms & stencils
I incorporated Cape Cod Coral into
all three tags to make them look like a set.
I added to this theme by placing a piece of lace on each but
only charms on the outer tags.
I also dyed a piece of seam binding with the same Cape Cod Coral,
this is tied to all 3 tags.
I used several pieces of chipboard over the 3 tags
using different techniques on each.

Live Life - Scrapmatts DT Canvas

Live Life

Good Morning Everyone, Rhonda here with you today with my
Scrapmatts blog post...

This month I created three totally different projects to share with you all...

The first of my project's is a canvas "about me" and set by Sofie
which was a challenge by itself and I must admit
it was the hardest challenge I have faced for some time.

For starters I didn't possess a recent photo of me, so hubby said
ok lets go and take a few photo's, so that was the photo
out of the way...

The next problem I faced was having to use the photo on the canvas,
no doubt a lot artists feel the same...

My canvas is titled "Live Life."

Firstly I used three different stencils for the background, I then worked out the

rest of the chipboard pieces I would use and tried some stencilling on the them,

it turned out quite effective...

Next I chose what colours I was going to use, I picked a few LSG starburst

spray mists. I also inked the chipboard pieces once the texture paste was dry...

I laid the chipboard pieces where I wanted them to go to make sure they

would not go past the edge, and once I was happy I glued everything down

and I was done...

The products I used for this project are as follows

Scrapwords 24 - CB1238 in Burnt Cream

Lamps 11 - Lamps 11 - CB 6109 Hanging Hearts 01 - CB 5112 Flannel Flowers 01 - CB 5146 Retro Squares 02 - CB 5142 Diamond Mesh 02 - CB 5126 Heart Spray 01 - CB 1109

Stencil Stones - ST5007

Stencil Circle Stains - ST5009

Stencil Splatter - ST5010

LSG - Time Travel Teal

LSG - Jazzy Jivin Purple

LSG - Magnolia Magenta Gold

I also used a few things from my stash

Prima Flowers - Butterfly - Bulbe

WOC - Sweetheart Blossoms

White Cotton Twine

Texture Paste

A stickpin I made

My second project is a quick present for my husband as it was our
Wedding Anniversary on the 23rd March.

Chocolate bar slide cover is called

"Just For You"

I made the box and I wanted to decorated it very masculine, so it was a
prime opportunity to use this awesome chipboard set from my DT pack...

Once I glued everything into place I got a small piece of chain
and tucked one end under the belt and joined the other
end to the top of the pocket watch...

Products used for this projects are
Mens Accesories 01 - CB1201
Buckles & Belts 01 - CB 1231
Patterned Paper - Fab Scraps - Shabby Blues (Retired)

Cardstock - Steel Grey Foil (From My Stash) A piece of chain.

My third and final project for this month is a card titled
"Birthday Wishes"

For this card I started with a white card base, then started building, before

I got to far I found the Dress form chipboard piece I was going to feature

and placed it on a piece of white card where I wanted to start creating the

background, I had a mauve spray mist that I wanted to use and

spayed over the chipboard piece using it as a stencil in a

few different places, I then used my heat tool and dried the

card and my dress form chipboard piece, it turned

out really pretty...

I used some gauze to sit under my Dress form with a pearl trim, a small

resin crown and a crown charm, a velvet flower and some WOC flowers

I also used Micro Chips 18 to sit under the greeting...

Products I used for this card are

CB6036 - Dress Forms 01
MC1026 - Micro Chips 18
Cardstock - White and Teal,
White Gauze,
Pearl Trim,
Metal charm Crown,
Resin Crown,
Velvet Flower,
Seed Beads in Teal and Mauve,
Micro Beads in Silver,
Pearls in Teal and Mauve,
and some Sequins.

So there you have it my three projects created...

Thanks for stopping by, make sure you come back soon to see what
the rest of the New Design team have been creating.

Until next time!

Rhonda
