Prima Build A Page - February

Hi Ladies,

Came across the sketch for this month's Prima Build A Page Challenge and decided to play along.

Beautiful Smile

Sketch designed by Lene Bjornerud

The feathers on the sketch were the starting point for my LO, as it made me think of the gorgeous Prima Guava Peony Brahms flowers which I have several packs of in my stash as I love the feathers and glitter accent on them.

I chose an outdoor photo of Brittany to go with the olive toned flowers and for a little contrast added a couple more Prima flowers in a burnt orange colour.  I have a massive stash of Prima pp's and used 4 different ranges which I thought blended well together.

 The weatherboard pp was altered with gesso, Lindy's Stamp Gang mica powders, a Prima stencil and Viva Inca Gold in copper which you can just see under the gesso.  I started with the copper medium and stencil, but it was a bit too much, so I went over it with gesso to tone it down and was much happier.  Once the gesso was dried off, I layered various Prima stamps with sepia and black ink, then softened the stamped images with Lindy's Stamp Gang mica powder in Antique Menorah Gold applied with a water brush.
