Good morning everyone :)
This week I am back with another layout to share using the amazing
This time I have picked out the different greens from the collection, as my layout is based on the February Scrap Around The World mood board....and I was inspired by all the greens in the board :)
"A Very Good Day"
I have used the reverse side of the "Clippings" paper for my background, which has a gorgeous grey crackle effect against the white background. I then dabbed some mists around the page using some scrunched up clingwrap, and then added some texture using a Prima "Static" stencil & some modelling paste. I finished off my background by stamping the circles using 2 different sized cardboard cylinders from the inside of a roll of kitchen tidy bags.
The lime green pieces at the top & bottom of the paper layers, is one of the frame pieces from the Frames & Icon Cards vellum sheet. After cutting it out from the sheet, I then cut it in half length ways, and arranged it so that they were offset from each other at the top & bottom of the paper layers.
I have used a strip that I cut from the 2Crafty Circular Panel that's running in under the paper layers under the photo...I've simply roughly coated this in Gesso.
I have added some tangled cotton strands to my cluster of Green Tara & Petaloo flowers, along with some diecut leaves. The darker green flowers were a touch too dark, so I've roughly added some Gesso to them to lighten them up a bit.
For the title, I've used one of the 2Crafty "Happiness Line Words" and have added some of the Beautiful Chic aqua alpha stickers to add to the title. I have coated the line word in Gesso, then added a variety of mists & gelatos until I got the colour I was happy with....I don't think I could get the same colour again if I tried...lol
Lots of 2Crafty on this page! Here are some of the gorgeous Flying Birds - Love these!
I've coated them in Gesso & then coloured them by painting them with different coloured mists.
Some more tangled up cotton threads with a much smaller cluster.
And here you can see some of the background texture using the Prima Static stencil & modelling paste. I've also added a few Teresa Collins sequins here & there around the page.
Under the photo I have used one of the 2Crafty Messy Square frames....placing it on the diagonal with the photo positioned on top. This is also coated in Gesso, then painted with mist. And my paper layers are just a variety of the green papers I picked out, cut into different sized strips & rectangles, then layered up with some of the Beautiful Chic Vellum pieces & Sentiment stickers layered in with them as well.
And here is a close up of the main area of the page.
The pic is one from our trip to Ireland....on one of our walks around the grounds of Ashford Castle where we were lucky enough to stay for a few nights. It is such a beautiful place :)
That is all from me for another week.
I hope you've been inspired by this gorgeous collection :)

Another stunning layout Linda. Your travel layouts make me want to hit the road again and I am so excited to have an extended trip. This year is going to be another hectic one and I think by then I will need the break. Lovely colours and gorgeous photos.
