This layout
is made with my August kit from my kit switch
with Zima. At the first glimpse of the kit I thought it was quite dark and “shabby
chic like”. But then I saw the red border and I saw that the kit was brilliant.
The combination of the drab colors and the vibrant red is awesome, I think. The
dark pink frame is made using the back side of one of the papers.
On the
background I used gesso on a template, Pan Pastels and some acrylic paint. The
small red dots/flowers are made of the leftovers from the borders and some
doodling.
When
writing this post I am on a conference in a Swedish castle. Both the castle,
the view over the sea and the weather are marvelous and I just had to show a
picture of “my new home”.
Finally a
reminder to those of you who haven’t joined the challenge I’m hosting at
ARTastic this month. There’s still some time left to get your fingers dirty
with different mediums and have some fun!!! Take a look at it here.
Thanks for
looking! I really enjoy reading all your lovely comments! Thanks!!

Stunning work - love the design and your doodling! Wow!
ReplyDeleteVa kul att se och höra att du fick till det med kitet, till slut :) Layouten är jättefin! Snyggt med fotomattan som avviker från de andra färgerna och doodlingen på den. Fjärilarna och blommorna ramar in bilden fint och passar bra ihop med gräsklippandet och träden på bilden. Coolt att du gjort mönster på bakgrundspappret.
ReplyDeleteVar hittar du dina masker och stenciler? Jag hittar nästan aldrig några som jag vill ha. Men du har alltid fina och användbara, tycker jag. :)
Tyvärr hann jag inte vara med i din utmaning på ARTastic men jag har en layout som jag påbörjat och hoppas kunna slutföra idag.
