Three times mixed media with Attic Charm by Wilma Voermans.

For this layout I used the monthly sketch which you will find here.

Orange is a favorite color for me, to use in vintage aswell as modern layouts.

This picture shows my daughter ready for travelling on the station.

The whole scene gave me a vintage feeling. I love that picture.

My starting point was the KEY paper (B-side).

I use mostly B-sides of papers, no intention, I just like them better ..

The sketch ( I turned it)

For the orange color I  used beads

I colored the white daisies with the orange heart with paint and gesso.

Afterwards I felled sorry for this, because 1 week later my son married.

And what had the bride in her bouquet??? White daisies with a orange heart !

And my beautiful white ones are used....

The lamppost is grunged up with embossing , gesso and paint.

To mimic the brigthness where the lightsource comes from I used golden paint ,

over golden embossing

Second layout is also based on the June sketch.....

It was supposed to be  masculine, since I used a photo from one of my sons.

But there is a difference for me  between very masculine pictures for example in black and white.

This picture is in soft colors , so I did not overdo the masculine theme.

I started with the Sachet paper ( B-side)  out of the Attic charm collection.

My favorit without a doubt..

Colored the background with pastels and water., but left the beautiful pattern to show through.

In the background there are a few soft flowers that I covered up with gesso and my photocluster.

With a black perlpen, I draw random figures.

Than with a mask some greyish/blue inking.

The chipboard is a frame piece ,  one of the clipboard set.

I cut it up, used one as my love you title and the rest here and there over the layout.

I made a mix from nutmeg and oatmeal powder.

The color gets less intensive because of the oatmeal. 

Tip for summerlayouts: Oatmeal is super for beachthemes!

The titel is just inked up with black drawing ink

My last layout for today is also in green/orange  Like the first one.

It just came out this way :) 

Although the orange is not that obvious like the first layout.

The start of the layout was on the beautiful Generation paper (Yes, again the B-side).

Starting off with two colors orange ink.  (offcourse first clear gesso )

Random heavy gesso, and than different shades of green embossing sprinkled over the background.

I have many many colors Blue Fern Studios embossing powder.

It is  such a luxury to pick the colors out of the whole range.

Here I used verdant and Lime..

Heatset it.

Than with a foliage stencil again heavy gesso.

The chipboard pieces I used are all embossed with pearl embossing powder.

Flourish, winter page dangle and title.
