BLOOMS

Hello there everyone today I am sharing my July layout for Dusty Attic  Dusty Attic has such a wonderful selection of delightful chippies, blooms and paint. I love to paint, alter, trim and distress the chippies . Blooms and nature have so many exquisite layers , textures and color I decided to create a background to mimic  these elements of nature . BLOOMS 

My background has many many layers  I began by priming my paper with white gesso  then splashed on some Tim Holtz stain - spun sugar and Victorian Velvet,  added texture paste with a mask,   more gesso , more stain , more gesso . layer upon layer until I was happy . MY TIP .... just keep adding layer over layer until happy . (make sure they are thin layers) 

how beautiful are these ... Wattle blossom : DA0752

I cut them , used pesto paint ...Dusty in Colour Pesto : DA0918

then swiped on some white by dry brushing with Dusty in Colour Navajo White : DA 0903

I love to use these little numbers ..Mini Number grid : DA1073..

they are great to trim and cut to whatever size desired
