My Favourite Colour Is Rainbow - Dusty Attic Design Team

 Good morning

I had so much fun creating these projects. I had paint everywhere!!

I started with the DA3621 Circular Picture Pie - Circular picture pie – Dusty Attic – Australian owned and operated Laser Cutting business as my design idea, both as a template and as a chipboard piece.


I have used it as a template only on a art journal page, and then as a template then a chipboard piece on a scrapbook page.



The base of both the journal page and the scrapbook page I have used 3 soft colours and a large paint brush to softly add to the page. I have then used 3 different stencils and the same colour paints to stencil over the top.



I have then used the Circular Picture Pie Chipboard as a template to trace around on both the journal page and scrapbook page to create a colour wheel base.

I have then chosen my paint colours and applied to create the colour wheel.


Over the top of both I have used a more pastel version of each colour and the DA3601 Paintbrush Stencil - Paintbrush Stencil – Dusty Attic – Australian owned and operated Laser Cutting business





To finish off the Art Journal Page I used a large black Posca Pen to write the title and highlighted with a white gel pen.


To finish of the scrapbook page I attached the Circular Picture Pie Chipboard using clear drying glue. I then used Posca pens to paint the "My Favourite Colour is Rainbow" title as well as the rainbow and clouds. These were all then attached using clear drying glue. 







Thank you

Heather

Good Times with Great Friends - Dusty Attic Design Team

 Good morning

Today I have done this fairly simply layout for you. I loved the pop from the papers, so I didn't want to add too much to take away from them.

A few months ago I spent a night in Sydney with a couple of good friends and we went and saw the musical Wicked. It was amazing!! We all have birthdays in the same month, so it has become a bit of a birthday tradition each year.


I started with these papers that were black and white with this pop of teal/green colour in them.

I then use the large (12"X12") circle stencil and some glitter texture paste to create a layer in the background. This reminded me of the metal circle cage that Glinda was in during the show.



I then layered different sheets of paper in different directions to give some depth.

The music notes I painted with black paint, then sprayed with some shimmer spray, then added some gold Posca Pen to the music notes.




The masks again I painted black and then sprayed with gold spray.




The title I very simply used a teal Posca pen, then a little bit of white gel pen on the edge of each of the capital letters.



I then finished off my page by adding the badge that they were handing out at the show.




Thank you

Heather
