April Mood Board - rich and velvety

Hi everyone and welcome to my blog 

Today I am sharing my take on the 

beautiful rich and velvety 

 Dusty Attic 

April Mood Board 

this month I decided to create a Card 

rich in texture, layering and dimension.

APRIL MOOD BOARD 

THIS MONTH 

I chose to use the blues complemented by the richness of the 

deep maroon / brown hues.

 because I felt these colors were very rich and velvety I used 

VELVET FLOWERS. 

I created with lots of the paints this month

if you have not already used these paints I suggest you give them a go 

they are perfect to use. 

so many colors to mix and match . 

The Dusty Attic products used .

Dusty in color 

Denim DA 0914

Alabaster DA 0902

Raisin DA 0909

Hot Chocolate DA 0923

Crackle Paint DA 0900

Mini Branches #2 DA 1121

Mini Heart Buttons  DA0682

Heart Arrows #2 : DA1026

Some of the mini branches are painted in Denim DA 0914

The others are in the maroon/brown hues. 

my process.

 To achieve the color on the mini branches 

I began with white (Alabaster DA 0902 ) 

then mixed the Raisin DA 0909 with 

Hot Chocolate DA 0923.. applied this to the chipboard 

and finished off with a coat of 

Crackle Paint DA 0900

I love the texture on this card .

At first glance of the April mood board

I found these colors confronting... 

but once I decided to mix some of the paints together 

I was really happy with the result ..

Dusty paints are just the best ..

stunning colors and quick drying .

Remember 

you may purchase the chipboard direct

 from the Dusty Attic website .

thanks so much for popping by

 and I do hope you are inspired to play with the April Mood board .

take care and happy scrapping
