Smiles are free ~ Dusty Attic May Inspiration Board

This months inspiration board uses some of my fav colors - different kind of teal and turquoise - just amazing! So, I pulled out some of my fav Dusty Attic chipboard pieces and lots (lots!!) of flowers in different blue shades. This is what I came up with:

 

 

And here is the inspiration board:

 

I have used the Ornate Gate small (DA0189) and Ornate Corner #13 (DA1137), both painted white and then distressed a bit.

 

Now prepare yourself for lots of close-ups!

 

Lots of layering of papers and flowers!

 

"Smiles are free" - I adore my daughters smile!

 

For the background, I painted the Prima paper with some white gesso, then used a stencil with clear gesso and misted with different mists. I have also painted with perfect pearls around the flowers and chipboard.

 

Thank you for stopping by today!
