Hello I'm back...

Here's another one for you to feast your eyes on.

This one is a mixed media on canvas using the August Mood board sketch a my inspiration!

Dusty Attic...Salt in the Air and Sand in my Hair!

I painted and created my back ground using the photo, then added sand paper 

and stencilled with river stone 

 I created texture by using guaze, netting and wire
Then completed off with chippie Branch, seashells,
starfish, glass bubbles and Dusty in Bloom flowers!

I do love to create layers, with bits and pieces in 
... always look closely and you will find them!!! :)

Hello again,

Well here we go... the first of many!!
I hope you enjoy, as much as I do!


Using the new range from Dusty Attic
Days like these are what make life so sweet!!
My inspiration was the August Moodboard

The paper used is 49 & Market I applied the the starry night stencil as well as the butterflies.
I then dusted the butterflies with black ink
The flourish I painted using a variety of dust attic paints to create the desired effect. 
I stamped with a script stamp from Penelope Dee.


Added netting, gauze, Dusty Attic flowers and real feathers from my little Dove, who thinks hes part of the family.


Dusty Attic products along with Tim Holtz and Nuvo:





My hope is that I can inspire you!
Please feel free to leave me a comment!

Happy scrapping!

This GORGEOUS photo is of my brother’s niece, who lives in Miami.
This was taken at the second wedding of her parents (Keith and Marcela) here in Cape Town at the beautiful Elgin Valley wedding venue, Rockhaven. 
Photo credit to Michelle Do Toit.

Using the newest range, Diamond Layne collection from Penelope Dee, as always, I applied my page to (canvas) board, chalked edges with VersaMagic - Gold.  Stencilled using Tim Holtz –Harlequin for the background with Nuvo Glimmer past - Golden Crystal and Moonstone and then added golden-bronze foil in places. Inked Chippies with VersaMagic - Gold and Delicata - Bronze. For the Penelope Dee flowers, I coloured using Nuvo Mousse – Coral Calypso watered down and include golden flowers from my stash, as well as gauze. To add a sparkle I included Stickles - Crystal and Platinum. And of course my usual metal flower embellishments.
