Grace: Layout using HC Enchanting Mum Collection

Posted by Rajni Chawla

Good morning friends!!

I am so thrilled and excited to see myself on Heartfelt Creation's board. It's a dream team. God has given me a wonderful opportunity to enjoy this beautiful world of crafting and to meet few more talented crafters across the globe. I know it's going to be a fun learning time with HC family. Today, I am on board with my very first project as a Heartfelt Creations Design Team!
Though I was bit nervous while creating this project as I entered my craft room after many days due to my ill health, but I have surely tried my level best to inspire you.

Instructions for Vintage Girl Frame:
 The vintage girl image is downloaded from Pinterest. Nest outer two dies of Spellbinder’s Wonky Rectangles with heavy cardstock and make a frame for the vintage girl image. Give a light coating of texture paste on the frame and sprinkle micro beads and leave it for drying. Once dried apply matching shades of acrylic paint and paint the frame.

Instructions for Layout:
Fussy cut the floral gate using fussy cutting scissors. Score rest of the designer paper using score pal randomly and apply a coat of diluted White Gesso. Stick the designer paper to heavy chipboard and also, layer the fussy cut floral gate.  Apply texture paste randomly using stencils and leave it to dry. To speed up the process you can use the heat gun. Once dry spray with shades of pinks and greens. Build few layers of colors drying in-between the layers. Once satisfied with the background highlight all the details with silk glaze.  Dusty Attic chipboards are all painted with dusty in colors acrylic paints and dusted with clear rock candy glitter using Art Institute Glue. Assemble the layout by creating different layers with chipboards, corrugated sheet and cheese cloth and also add dimensions using glue dots.
