Our Golden Girl - Nina

When I first recieved my 2Crafty DT pack of chipboard products, I immediately gravitated towards the 11" Flowery Swirl Frame and the Frame Lucy's Flourish.

After some rotating, and manipulating, I decided to utilise both of these pieces on the same layout and to repeat a circular theme.

I really love the whispy flourishes on these pieces and love how well they complemented each other on my layout.

I painted the large 11" flowery swirl frame with green acrylic paint and I used a gold adirondak paint dabber on the Lucy's Flourish frame.  I used a dabbing motion when applying the gold paint to the Lucy's Flourish frame, which actually created a lovely rough texture to the frame.  When the paint on both pieces were dry, I added a coat of dimensional magic for a smooth and glossy finish.

Happy Creating,
Smiles, Nina.
