You make me Happy by Tammy Klingner

Good morning everyone.   My kids went back to school this week so I managed a bit of creative play.  

I felt like getting a bit painty, my go to paints are Dylusions - love the vibrant colours.   I began by applying white gesso to my background. I then got out 3 different paints - a turquoise, an emerald and a lime. I kinda just added a bit of this, and a bit of that to my brush, and lots of water. As soon as I saw the awesome colour combo, I knew I wanted to pair it with just simple black and white.  

  So I hunted through my leftover bits of Bella Boulevard and Simple Stories. I created a few layers behind my photos, and then embellished with 2Crafty Chipboard.   I used a title, a revolution frame, clustered hearts and some little mini hearts too.   I painted some white, and some black.  To my title I added Glossy Accents to give a high gloss/resin finish.  

  After I had finished I stood back, and felt it needed something else. I flicked white gesso onto the page. I added black paint to the border of the layout and I also swiped some black paint over the chipboard frame.  

Aaah, that's better, that pulled it all together!!   Products used: White Bazill Dylusions Paint - Black Marble Dylusions Paint - Polished Jade Dylusions Paint - Vibrant Turquoise Dylusions Paint - Fresh Lime Dylusions Paint - White Linen Bella Boulevard Oh my Stars Paper - McIntosh Stars Bella Boulevard Illustrated Faith You are loved Paper pieces Bella Boulevard Illustrated Faith Bright and Brave Bible Journaling Simple Stories Simple Sets - Whatever 2Crafty 6" Revolution Frame 2Crafty You Make me Happy Title 2Crafty heart clumps 2Crafty Tiny hearts and stars Ranger Glossy Accents
