2 Crafty Chipboard used:
Follow your heat title
Square barbed wire frames
Wing Set 1
Element set 1
Polaroid Frame
Deer head set
Square barbed wire frames
Wing Set 1
Element set 1
Polaroid Frame
Deer head set
11" Hibiscus Frame
I just LOVE how adding some white splatters to finish this canvas off, gives
all of the chipboard pieces just that little more of appeal/wow factor....
I started off by giving the Follow your heart title a coat of gesso, then inked it with blue,
& honestly didn't like it, SO! I went over the blue with some black ink, I loved how
there is still bits of blue showing....
Polaroid Frame also had a coat of gesso & then inked the edges with pink.......
I inked with black the Square barbed wire frame, cut into smaller pieces &
placed them throughout the canvas....
I gave the 11" Hibiscus Frame a light coat of gesso then added somewater
colors to the hibiscus flowers....
I didn't want this Deer head to get lost in all the color....
I ended up giving it couple of coats of gesso!

For my second project I have created this layout...
'Beauty'
Since we are in October & 2 Crafty Chipboard have some
REALLY COOL Halloween themed chipboard pieces....
I thought it would be a perfect time to create this layout.....
Even though in my household we personally don't get into the spirit & do the Halloween thing.
BUT! last year at my daughters school they had on the 30th October a Halloween/dress up something scary day...

Ivy Clusters
Mini Word Set 1
Word Circles Set 1
Large Mummy
2015
Halloween Frame
The Circle Word - Today from the Word Circles Set 1 & has a coat of gesso
then heat embossed the today word.....
I added a very light coat of gesso to the Large Mummy, then added a some pink water color....
Once the coat of gesso dried on the Halloween Frame, I just inked the characters!!
And just before I go, I have 1 more layout to share.....
