Two layouts , two different collections by Wilma Voermans

                          I cant believe it is already a month ago my last blogpost was on.
                                              And only 6 weeks untill Christmas!
                           But let us first say goodbye to fall , my most favorit season.
                                               Fall in Switzerland is so beautiful .

                             Lets go over to my first layout I would love to share with you.

                                                                             

When I start a scrapbookpage, I never know what I am going to do excactly.

I grab a picture, and choose the papers.

For this paper from the Love Story collection I had a masculine page in mind.

Well, as you see it ended up as a feminine page.

The picture I used was not that great in the start, a lot going on in the background.

But my daughter in law has beautiful eyes , so I decided to use just that part.

The chipboard piece I used is the crosshatch frame .

I first embossed it in red, but I changed my mind and dapped it random with black patina.

Here and there I left a little red peeking through .

On my background I used the glitter Phoenix , I just spread here and there on my wet gesso.

In real life it gives a great effect!

The second layout I like to share with you is light as spring .

My daughter asked for a layout with this picture.

I think it is perfect for the Ombre Dreams collection.

I made this layout after the beautiful November sketch, a design by Michele Singh.

The chipboard piece Tech panel is versatile.

I choose it to get some grunch feeling and tone down all that sweetness :) 

I am a big fan of the chipboard negatives.

They give the chipboard sturdyness for shipping.

But they also give me fun and crazy shapes, I never throw them away!

Here I took out the circles from the tech panel , colored them ,

 a few doodles and there you have small embellishments

The techpanel piece is just painted with silver/iron colored paint .

To match the iron my granddaughter holds her hands on in the picture.
