'Adore' layout
by Hetty Hall

Hi there and welcome to the 2Crafty blog,
 Hetty with you today!

'Adore'

Today I would like to share with you this layout using a number of awesome
 2Crafty Chipboard 
 I also included some progress photos, but first some close ups and product information.


2Crafty Chipboard Products:
- Amelia Flower - Small
- Amelia Flower - Large
- Beaded Hanging Hearts
-Mini Word Set 2
- Decorative Rod Set

Papers, flowers and Laser Cuts are from 49 and Market.


As per usual I used lots of layers, I love the dimension it creates.


I used a really fun technique on the 'Amelia Flower' chippie which I will explain below.


Close up of the finished effect on the chipboard.


Below is a photo tutorial of how my page came together.


So I started off with adding some cheese cloth to my background paper and
 gluing it down in random places scrunching it up as I went.


Next I added two coats of heavy white gesso to my chipboard,
 drying it off with the heat gun.


Once dry I added three different opal magic colours in
 random areas using the dry brush technique.


I then dried the paint with my heat gun which made it bubble
 and melt to create this awesome texture.


Next I added both chipboard pieces to my layout on top of some layered photo matts. 
The papers are layered with pieces of cardboard to create dimension.


I used some copper embossing powder on the 'Decorative Rod' and 
white on the sentiment and 'Beaded hanging Heart'


Finishing it off by adding all my other elements like flowers 
and laser cuts, some art stones and prills.

Thanks so much for stopping by!

Until next time.....

Hugs
