'DREAMING OF PARIS'

HI everyone today is my turn on 
pop over to the blog to see all the magic .

Today I am showcasing a soft feminine page without using white cardstock , very unusual for me !!
I love my white backgrounds .


'YOU' 
 I covered the chipboard with white gesso first ,
 when dry I applied Dew Drop BRILLIANCE ink – CHOCOLATE.
I was pretty happy with the FINAL COLOR .
I cut the decorative top section from the frame
  ( The remainder of the frame to be used on another project  later )

Imaginarium designs chipboard Items used
Eiffel tower ID30049
Emma Frame IDFR0012
Mini Alphas IDALC0001





Other items used
Kaiser paper, blossoms, lace … Green Tara leaves … Meg’s  Garden velvet flowers .
Prima flowers, Tim Holtz film strip, brads... Crochet cotton .

My handy tip
I find by covering the chipboard with white gesso first, allows the ink to become more translucent .

Dress form IDS0007
4 butterflies on board IDT0014
The butterflies are painted with white gesso first 
and dabbed with raspberry versa color ink on edges of wings .
  I layered the butterflies to create dimension and secured with a brad.
The dressform is simply inked with raspberry versa color. 
The Eiffel Tower is painted with white gesso .


I hope I have inspired you to play with some of our fabulous ID chipboard .

thanks so much for dropping by
and taking the time to leave me some blog love
you are all so wonderful 
Warm hugz from Heather x
