Perfect 10
First up is my layout, entitled "Perfect 10". I've been meaning to scrap a picture of my son's precious little baby feet for years (he is nearly 3) - and finally got it done with this layout! Is there anything cuter than tiny baby toes!?
I used half of the Criss-Cross Frame and did some trimming of the Cross-Hatch Heart and Lou's heart shapes to frame the picture and embellish the layout. I was so happy with how the chipboard pieces on this layout turned out - an experiment gone right (trust me I've had a lot go wrong....). First, I painted the chipboard with black acrylic paint, then I splattered them with watered down gesso, and, finally, I rubbed them with three different colours of gelatos to get the multi-toned effect.
Here are some more close-ups of the ID chipboard pieces!

New Baby Card
For my second project, I made a card for a friend who just had a beautiful little baby girl. Now, I am usually not a card maker. . . as in I never, ever make them - but she is a very special friend who I wanted to create something special for, so here it is!
I used the "New Baby" sentiment and treated it with a mixture of two colours of Tim Holtz Distress Embossing Powder (Tattered Rose and Worn Lipstick).
I also used the mini-birdcage and treated it with Tim Holtz Distress Embossing Powder in Vintage Photo.

My third project for today is a mixed-media mini-canvas - it also happens to be the first canvas I've ever done. It is a gift for my friend - to go along with the card above!
For the chipboards on this canvas, I used a watercolour method that I am calling "marbled watercolouring" and I've put together a little photo-tutorial for you on how I accomplished the treatment on the letters.
Here are a few more close-ups of the chipboard pieces on the canvas!
