Seasons Greeting - Xmas decor for Dusty Attic DT

Hello Sweeties,

Today I'm up on Dusty Attic blog with a Xmas home decor. 

I covered the MDF base with 2 layers of white gesso, then I added a design with a stencil and white crackle paste. 

While the paste was drying, I primed all the chipboard with white gesso as well as some resin elements. 

I embossed the Berries #2 with Silver Moon Mistletoe EP: a transparent embossing powder with a greenish undertone. I embossed also the fruits of the Foliage #11 with a golden EP. 

I glued all the chipboards before adding any color. When happy with the composition, I just add one color: Burnt Sienna. When happy with the color, I highlight some details with gold wax. Then I used white wax to soften the transition between the brown ink and the white gesso. 

To finish, I added some glitters.

Make Today Magic - Mixed media layout for 49 and Market DT

Hello Sweeties,

Today I'm up on 49 and Market blog with a Christmas layout. 

For my background, I chose the Peaceful Notions paper from the Vintage Artistry Serenity. I added a design with white crackle paste and a stencil. Next, I added blue and green inks to match the colors of the photo.

I die-cut different kinds of leaves and pine branches.  I colored the pine branches with the same colors I used for the background, the leaves with brown and green inks, and I embossed the ferns with a silver embossing powder.

I primed a resin element with black gesso, then I used waxes to add some colors.

I selected some Ephemera Bits to add under the photo, then I added Nature's Bounty flowers and a branch of Wildflowers. I added a few stamps from the Pewter Ticket Essentials.

I added some leaves from the 6x8 VA Serenity rub-ons and the titles came from the 12x12 Sentiments.

To finish, I added silver glitter
