a few of my favorite things

here is the mood board for Scrap the Boys

this mood board has so many things i love, robin egg blue, woodgrain, brown, fall leaves, water bubbles.  HOW FUN!

 started with vanilla cardstock and sprayed Prima Color Blooms in the corners- several shades.  Once i have the color on i spray some water to remove all the harsh edges.

 added some clear embossing paste in the corners with stencils

once the embossing paste is dry i inked around with vintage photo distress ink, makes the patterns pop.  I love clear embossing paste, you get a pattern, and preserve the colors underneath.

 i doodled around the pattern, makes it pop pop pop.

here is the finished project.  All my other favorite came out to play- chipboard, metal, rub ons, plus pistachio distress paint.  Then the best favorite- my kid playing in puddles at our farm in his all time favorite fashion- rubber boots.


The chipboard chicken wire, arrow, and journalling tab are designed by me.  Check out my etsy store
