Life looks beautiful on you by Christine David

Hi everyone!
Today I’m with you to show you my last creation of November. I made a layout with a paper from the Vintage Artistry Natural collection, I love this collection with soft colors. With this photo of my son running I thought I would make a more dynamic page and especially not in neutral tones and pink, but in the end, I really like the result.

I put a layer of light gesso on the background paper. Then I made writing patterns with a stencil and two colors of chalk paste, which I let dry. To color I used Liquid Acrylic Burn Sienna diluted with a little water, I spread with a brush and make a few drops less diluted to make it darker. I put the photo in a frame of the laser cuts sheet from the Vintage Artistry Lilac collection. We can’t see it well in the photo, but I glued the frame a little folded in the center as if it were on a desk, to give more volume to my page. On the chipboards, I simply put a little Emboss it liquid without putting it all over and I embossed with white embossing powder, it gives a slightly worn look.

I continued with the bouquets of flowers, I used the magnificent wild punch flowers, brown and some white flowers, laser cuts of foliage and stamps from the Bold and Beautiful collection, Wishing Bubbles Bubblegum, and some loops of jute cording. And I finished with a few drops of white ink.
