Hello
I made this page when I saw the Country View Challenge theme of we will always have Paris as it made me think of love and then the song plaisir d'amour. Okay ahem moving on ... ;)
There is a new blog trying to get started with mixed media so I wanted to show some love there too.
I made a page and here's how.
The background is made with tattered angels paint washes used as sprays and brusho powders misted with water. I kept to red, white and blue but emphasised the blue for a clearer stamping base.
I used the Eiffel Tower stamp from Tim Holtz Tiny Things and repeated it across the page in two rows, stamping with silver versa ink. I then used the little music stamp from Tim Holtz Mini Holidays Christmas stamp set and stamped this around the perimeter in memento blue to provide a frame. I added the couple die cut by tattered lace and the wee black cats are also tattered lace. The metal Eiffel Tower charm and heart brad are from stash and I sprayed it a bit with cadence shake n gilt.
The letters and big heart are grunge board and come from Tim Holtz stuff in stash. I used blue marker on the letters and sprayed the heart with shake n gilt and added faux stitches. The blue heart brad is from stash.
Thanks for looking,
Vee xx
