Laurie Moore USA - 123 May Challenge Layout

I'm enjoying making layouts and decided to enter my first layout Challenge. This layout is for 123 May Challenge (link below). This blog has some awesome Designers on their Team and the challenges look like so much fun.

They have three rules for this challenge and they are.... Use the color "Red", the word "Happy" and technique add "Balloons".  I had just got a new stamp set from Inkadink with a beautiful balloon airship on it and thought this would be great to use in this layout. I started with a white piece of cardstock and added light blue spray which does not seem to show up in the photo here. I then added my red splatters with Postbox Red ink spray from Dylusions and then a little masking with black ink.
I look forward to trying more layout challenges as it helps me learn new techniques and designs, along with adding more colors in my layouts.  Thanks for peeking in on me. Your comments are welcome here. Also check out my Facebook page and YouTube videos. Smiles, Laurie

Handful of Love

                                     

This 12 x12 layout started with white card stock that I sprayed with Tattered Angel Glimmer Mist Sprays to create the two tones of blue for the back ground. All the flowers are made from black metal from Tenseconds Studio that I carry in my Artfire store. I have videos on my Youtube channel showing how I created the flowers and the layout. Thanks for visiting my blog.

12"x12" Canvas for Jules

This is a canvas I made for the lovely sweet Jules of "The Jule Box". I started with Gesso and a template from The Crafter's Workshop the "Harlequin" to add texture and a pattern to match the harlequin look of the design that I created down the side. Using a Tenseconds Studio metal sheet and a variety of embossing folders, I added different textures to the metal elements like the diamond shapes, flowers and leaves. A combination of Recollections and Jolee's boutique flowers and embellishments were also added. The touches of three different type of flourishes set this canvas off and of course the beautiful picture of Jules takes center stage. For more details check out my YouTube channel.
Thank you Jules for your wonderful friendship and love my dear friend.

A Penny Farthing Bike for Lisa

I made this 12 x12 shadow box layout for a wonderful friend named Lisa. I found this decorative Penny Farthing in an antique shop and knew it would be perfect for a shadow box for Lisa who loves and collects Antiques. I created the shadow box out of heave chip board. Trim it with card stock that I added a lace look with a punch. I used Graphic 45 paper for the background. I added die-cut flourishes and frame along with film strip, lace rosette flower which I placed a beautiful broach on given to me from Tricia (Alittleshabbychic on Youtube). I found a picture of a family gathering with Penny Farthings in the back ground, just a what this layout needed. Check out my youtube channel to see more of this shadow box, along with a look at the beautiful gifts I received from Lisa. Also check out her channel as well please.

Peek-A-Boo

This adorable Peek-A-Boo canvas was fun to create. I started with a 9 x 12 canvas that I cut an opening in to place the photo behind to peek through. I added texture with a piece of lace I put down with Gesso. I also added texture with a Daisy mask and more Gesso. I wanted a bit more color to the canvas so I took paint to match and did a splatter paint technique on it. I painted and Gessoed a small picket fence, added flowers, tags, diecut butterflies, and letters to complete this canvas. Please check out my Youtube channel to see how I put together this fun Canvas. Thanks for Peeking in on my blog. Hugs, Laurie

My Sweet Little Butterfly

 This sweet canvas was inspired by this picture of my Grandson. I started with a 9 x 12 canvas and added diecut butterflies and lace dollies to the back ground. I use the Tenseconds Studio cooper sheet I carry in my Artfire online store under the tag to show through the cutouts of the letters. I took copper wire and bent and twisted around and added copper dragonflies I punched out of the copper sheet to add a whimsical element to this canvas.   Buy the copper sheets in my store and check out my video on youtube for more details of this canvas. Have a great day. Laurie

Sweet Pink Canvas

I started with an 8" x10" canvas that I added Gesso for texture to the canvas and then added Lindy's Stamp Gang "Magicals", Salt Water Taffy for the pink on the lower half and Glimmer Mist "pearl' for the white on top. Laces, flat beads, S.E.I. paper were added, along with flowers and die cut green leaves. Some of the things added to this canvas I sell in my ArtFire store are wire hearts, copper hearts from the copper sheet I sell and Ver-day copper paint.
I have a tutorial video on how I put this together on YouTube. Please check in out for more details.
