ONE Amazing Day ~ by Robin Schelin

Hello everyone, welcome to November.
 Can you believe it? Time goes by sooo fast! Christmas will be here before you know it!

I love Autumn colors. So warm and comforting. Fall is in full swing here in Colorado.
 I love the cool crisp air and the beautiful changing colors of the leaves. Marvelous!! 


"ONE Amazing 'Day"



2Crafty I used on this layout:
12x12 Stacked Filmstrips
ONE Love
   ONE Dream
  ONE Heart
  Amazing Day




As always, I primed my chipboard with White Gesso first before altering.


 I backed the photo with the 12x12 Stacked Filmstrips. I cut it to fit behind the photo because it was too wide. This piece is great, you can "cut to size" to fit any width you need. I painted it with Goldstone from Prima's Shimmering Lights Watercolor set. Love to use watercolors on the chippies, just covers so nicely.



Here is the left side of the 12x12 Stacked filmstrips.



I used 2 different titles to get my title. I cut and used the "ONE" from One Love One Dream One Heart. I cut up my titles frequently to get what I'm going for on my projects. Sometimes I want more, sometimes less. Sometimes they are too big for a particular layout, or too small. Lol, sometimes they are juuust right! That's the beauty of 2Crafty. You can customize!
I painted the "ONE" with the same watercolor as I used on the stacked Filmstrips. Then I added Amazing Day underneath it. I painted this with a mix of Yellow Red, Burnt Sienna and Yellow Oxide Acrylic Paint. I wanted this to match with the colors of the layout.

And there it is, my first project for November. Hope you like it and are have already been working on your fall projects. This is such a great time of the year to be creating!
See you in a few weeks
