Basic Grey Mon Ami - by Fiona Johnstone

    Hi Everyone   This week I am working with the delightful Basic Grey Mon Ami collection. A beautiful collection of papers, with a fabulous Paris theme which would be great for holiday layout.  But it also has some plainer prints and these cute rainy day papes which inspired todays layout.    You make me Happy when Skies are Grey:  

    My title is from the new release of 2Crafty Chipboard, which will be in store soon!! I have used inks and gelatos to colour it and then a bit of distress crackle paint to highlight parts.   

    I have used two different papers from the Mon Ami range to create the background. The city skyline I have fussy cut along the buildings and the used the raindrop paper for the sky. I have added some stickers from the elements sticker sheet to enhance the rain imagery.  

  I've finished my layout off with some petaloo flowers, some veneer leaves that have been lightly inked, some enamel shapes and dots:  

  Thanks for visiting today, hope you've been inspired.
Till next week Fiona x
