Fabulous Forever using Photo Play Our Friendship Thru the Years by Kerryn Fry

Hi Everyone!Today I'm sharing my second projectthat was created with the collectionPhoto Play Our Friendship Thru the Years.
The photo is a very precious memory.My beautiful friend and Mr H's Godmotherwho passed away in 2009.A very early photo of Mr H taken in 2004,I was about 8 months pregnant.

Loads of mixed media on this background.The base is Vicki Boutin Mixed Media 12x12 Foundations Paper,the perfect base for any wet mixed media products.
The first layer is the packaging techniqueusing Fired Brick Distress Oxide Ink and water.Once dry, I have repeated the techniqueand added some big drops of ink.
The next layer is with a Crafters Workshop Stenciland Fired Brick Distress Oxide Ink, applied with a blending tool.I have then used a second Crafters Workshop Stenciland Antique Linen Distress Oxide Ink.

The next layer is gold ink

and a Vicki Boutin Colour Study Stencil 

to add pops of gold to the background. 

I've applied it with a blending tool.

To finish off  the background, I've made separate liquid mixes 

of Fired Brick Distress Oxide, Gold ink 

and Black Gesso to add splashes to the paper.

The top of the page is a paper strip of Together,

a sticker border from the Element Sticker Sheet

and the 'Good Time' and 'Best Friends' words 

from the Element Sticker Sheet.

I've hand-cut some flowers from the Together paper

to create clusters around the photo.

The quote was hand-cut from So Lucky paper

and backed with Bazzill Raven Cardstock.

The black cardstock has also been used 

to back the photo and create a border strip under the photo.

The title and sub-title has been created 

with stickers from the Element Sticker Sheet.

I've lifted some elements with foam tape

to add some dimension to the page. 

The final touches are the small

heart stickers scattered around the title.

Thanks for visiting the blog today,I hope you have enjoyed the page.Have a great, crafty weekendand join us again next week.
