"My Beautiful Girl" Layout by Marie Sabatier

Hello everyone,

I present to you my first inspiration from this month of October.

A layout with a photograph of my granddaughter for the first day of school this year. 

I added an autumn decor by adding these superb chipboards "large-daisy-flower-stem".

"My Beautiful Girl"

The chipboard used:

my-beautiful-girl-title
6x6-summertime-sheets
frame-handdrawn-heart
large-daisy-flower-stem
field mushrooms
foliage-set-17

To begin, I applied a layer of white gesso to each chipboard.

The "frame-handdrawn-heart" chipboards were coated with white acrylic paint.

I used green ink for the leaves on the "large-daisy-flower-stem" chipboards. For the petals, I simply stamped with neutral ecru ink, adding a few touches of yellow.

On the word "happy", the white color is softened by lightly rubbing with "Fossil" ink.

The "field-mushrooms" and "foliage-set 17" chipboards were decorated using "49 and Market" inks, applied with a reservoir brush for a neat and controlled finish.

I like to combine chipboards and paper cutouts to highlight every detail.

For the phrase "My Beautiful Girl," I apply the same technique as for the word "happy," adding a slight shade of dark brown to tone down the brightness of the white.

As always, I loved using these beautiful particle boards to add depth and structure to my layout.

I hope that I have provided you with some inspiration for your future creations.

Thank you for your loyalty!

Marie
