~~ Sweet Moments Sentimental Cards ~~November 2022 Dusty Attic Design Team Project

Gooday Friends...

For today's Dusty Attic blogpost I have created two cards for you. 

I used paper from the beautiful Mintay, City of Love collection. 

It may not be easy to see, but I did some awesome coloring on the Lillies Chipboard. Firstly the chippies were coated with thin layer of white Gesso. I then used the following products applying and going over until I was satisfied with the result. I used Antique Rosewood Matt Chalk Polish from Cosmic Shimmer. Also used Pastel Dirty Pink and Patina Brown Mist from 13Arts as well as Bayou Boogie Gold Spray from Lindy's Stampgang. Somewhere in between I also used White Acrylic Paint as well...

The cute little Bees were embossed with Dessert Moon Turquois Embossing Powder from Lindy's. I stamped a stitched motif on the edges and embossed it with Turkish Nights Embossing Glitter from WOW!. 

I painted the Hexagon pieces with a Pink Acrylic paint, when dry I embossed them with an embossing folder. I then scrapped Icicle Distress Crackle Paste from Tim Holtz in the crevasses and let it dry. I painted a little of the Patina Brown Spray on it to highlight the cracks. 

I used a Gold and Rosewood foil to Heat foil the Mini Foliage and Leaves. 

I used the following pieces from the Dusty Attic on-line shop.

Thank you for taking the time to read my post...Hope you enjoyed.

I still find each day too short 

for all the thoughts I want to think, 

all the walks I want to take, 

all the books I want to read,

 and all the friends I want to see.

~~ My Girl ~~February 2020 DT post for 13@rts

They say "All good things come to an End...." and sadly this will be my last post as an 13@rts Designer. I had the best time designing with AmAzing products!!!! Thank you for having my Aida and all the very best to the new Team members....

For this page I used two sheets from the Summer Rhapsody collection. One was used for the background and the other torn and used on the sides. I distressed all the edges and painted them with Black Rainbow Duo mixed with water. Also used Clear Gesso before all the paints. 

I mixed Yellow Amber Rainbow Duo with Modeling Paste and put it through the Vintage Wreath Stencil. 

For the background colour I sprayed the Yellow Amber and Pearl Black mists. I also used Amber Color Glow with water...It is the pinkish glow one can see in the photos!

The net Chipboard was painted with black Gesso.

I sprayed the chipbard with Pearl Black Mist and embossed it with Deep Sea, Rocky Road and Vintage Beeswax Embossing Powders. The title was sprayed with Yellow Amber Mist.

I added some flowers and Black Lux Crystals and used the Splash Brush to add splatters of the Silver Glitter.

All of the products and many more are available in the 13@rts on-line shop

If you're alone, I'll be your shadow.

 If you want to cry, I'll be your shoulder. 

If you want a hug, I'll be your pillow.

 If you need to be happy, I'll be your smile. 

But anytime you need a friend, I'll just be me.

~~~ Always follow your Dreams ~~~November 2019 Blogpost for 13arts

Today I am sharing with you an Art Journal page that I created using different Mediums from 13@arts.

I first prepared my page with Ayeeda Clear Gesso to keep my inks from seeping into the paper. First I sprayed the background with Pastel Antique Cream Mist. Then I played with washi tapes, gauze colored with Pastel Dirty Pink and Light Turquoise Pearl Inks Mists and some lace. I also used the Inks and Matt Turquoise Paint on the background.
I colored the chipboards with the different inks and used some Silver Glitter on some of them. For added texture I also used Silver Holographic Glitter and Light Blue Grit that I easily adhered with the Acrylic Liquid Medium....
The Butterfly is of course from Maremi's Small Art.

These products and many more are available at the 13@rts online store.
