My Everyday Life Layout DT work for ***The Dusty Attic*** + Playing at ***7 Dots Studio***!

Goodmorning lovelies, 

Today I have a really colorful layout to share with you and so totally out of my comfortzone. When I saw the new challenge over at the "7 Dots Studio" I was instandly hooked on the idea of making something about my "Daily Routines". For me something I do every single day is putting my glasses on my face otherwise I don't see shit hehe. I also work with glasses everyday as I am a optician which I can say is a daily routine also. So what better way then to use some pictures of frames on my layout. That by the way was really weird since I never scrap things but places and people. This layout I created for my DT work over at "The Dusty Attic"!

My Everyday Life: 

I am not such a super fan of orange but I got some amazing flowers by 49 and market which totally fitted the pretty "Cotton Candy Dreams" papers by 7 Dots Studio. For this layout I haven't used as many chipboard pieces as I normally do but sometimes I like to challenge myself and use not so much. {I hoard my chippies because I love them sooo much lol} 

 The chipboard pieces are treated with gesso, spray's and Dusty Attic acrylic paints {these paints are the best} I also used some spray's and stamps to make my background and added some flairs to compliment my work. The pretty pictures are from pinterest and I printed them in different sizes and if you know me a little you know that I almost never use more then two pictures so this one was a real challenge. 

 To complete my layout I added some metal embellishments two cute pilot frames, a heart and a adorable binocular. I also used some glass glitter and some aqua mini prills. The chipboard piece "Our Everyday Life" I took the *our* part away and added *my* from another phrase chippie. 

The Dusty Attic products used: 

DA0177 - Chicken Wire Panel

DA1290 - Mini Captions #3

DA1564 - With all my Heart

DA0906 - Dusty in Colour Sunburnt Orange

DA1218 - Dusty Attic Texture Paste 

With this layout I will be entering this months challenge at the "7 Dots Studio" blog. This month it's about "Daily Routines" and that got me working out my comfort zone with different colors, multiple pictures and not people or places but things. Thank you for the great theme 7 Dots Studio! Here is the picture of inspiration:

Spread Your Wings Layout for ***The Dusty Attic*** & Playing at 7 Dots Studio

Hi everyone, 

When I got my massive DT box from The Dusty Attic I was so excited that I started right away!

I ordered the gorgeous two new collections at 7 Dots Studio and got that order in too.....

I knew right away that I wanted to enter their challenge using the Dusty Attic mood board at the same time. So for this layout I used two different paper collections and the word stickers and a bunch of chipboard.

 The picture I used is one I recently made of our handsome boy and his new haircut and I am very lucky to be his mother. 

Spread Your Wings: 

Did you already play with us this month at the Dusty Attic blog? If not you must give it a go because you could win a $100 give voucher and I have to tell you it's worth it because they are a delight to work with!

Here is the mood board:

For this mood board I went in another direction as I would normally do....normally I would immediately take out my Maja Design papers and go for a white or light background but for this one I went with black/grey

The flowers I used are by Dusty Attic, Prima marketing and Petaloo I have to say those Dusty Attic flowers are so cute I wish I could swim in them hehe. I also used a couple of stencils and some amazing sprays, pastes, inks.

I think you can really combine rustic chipboard pieces with flowers on a masculine layout don't you think so too? I am totally in love with the Nuts & Bolts they give your layout such a nice touch. The text strips are mostly by Tim Holtz with the exception if the "spread you wings" one that one matches my papers I used.

Beautiful Layout for ***The Dusty Attic***

Goodmorning everyone, 

I am up on the blog today with a layout I made not using Maja Design papers "yep" I can make something with other papers too lol....for this layout I used several 7 Dots Studio collections. This time I also used some pretty Prima Marketing flowers I think I am a addict when it comes to flowers. I treated the chipboard pieces I used all differently some with just acrylic paint and others I embossed.  

Beautiful: 

This paper exists out of wood grain which I really love. For this layout I cut the wood grain pattern and distressed it heavily after that I cut out some more strips of that same papers which I also distressed and added them on my layout on three places. Then I splattered three different sprays on the paper and I also added the heart stencil {my favorite} with the Dusty Attic texture paste.

As you can see here I painted the frame that's around my picture with some acrylic pink paint by The Dusty Attic. Later I added some rust paste plus white crackle paste and I finished it off with a metal gem. The word "Beautiful" was embossed with two colors Lindy's embossing powder and the small chains I gessod and spray painted. 

Oh how I enjoy playing with chipboard so much I can't imagine to not use it on my layouts it just feels not finished when I don't use it. This layout was really a happy layout to create and I will be creating more very soon.
