Summer Nature Walk

My son Evan in August 2017



For this layout I used some Blue Fern Studios papers.


Blue Fern Studios
Wanderlust - Memento
Blue Fern Studios
Wanderlust- Wanderlust Petites
Blue Fern Studios
Wanderlust - Road Trip
Blue Fern Studios
Timeless - Keepsakes




I did some stencilling on the background using a Clarity Stencil Brush and Weathered Wood Distress Ink.

Tim Holtz
Floral





These are the punches and dies I used:


Spellbinders
Romantic Rectangles
Martha Stewart
Checker Board
Fiskars
In Stitches





This is one of the chipboard pieces I used:


Blue Fern Studios
Spring Branch


The diamond-shaped tile border was by a now defunct brand called Harmonie.


I heat-embossed the Spring Branch with different colours of Distress embossing powder (Vintage Photo, Peeled Paint and Shabby Shutters).  I started by embossing the whole thing with the Peeled Paint colour and then using an embossing marker on the parts I wanted to emboss with the other colours.









The diamond-shaped border pieces were coated with clear gesso and then Ranger Texture Paste Opaque Crackle.  When that was dry I rubbed some ink overtop to highlight the cracks more and grunge it up.






Thank you so much for taking a look!
