Moroccan Nights - ATC ~ Dusty Attic ~

This months ATC Theme for Dusty Attic is Moroccan, after researching for ideas for this theme I noticed these gorgeous rich colour schemes. Not colours I usually work with but I loved getting out of my comfort zone on this one, I love the end result!



 To paint the vase I painted with a cobolt blue paint, then painted the white pattern across the pot, the glued chain along the top and bottom.


  

To create the frame border I cut it from the cottage window with vine.



Dusty Used:


Marrakesh Trellis small  DA0821



Vase 4pk  DA0270



Cottage Window with vine DA0196



          Vine Corner DA0753

"Beautiful Eyes" ~ Donna Salazar & Dimensional Border Tutorial

Howdy I am back again this time with another layout of my gorgeous girl! I miss her so much since she moved to Brisbane. She is growing up into a beautiful young lady! I can't believe she will be 20 next month!



I have a tutorial below on how to create this textured frame.


This flower was created using Botanique papers and the Grand Peony Creations


 Dimensional Border Tutorial
 It is pretty easy to create this dimensional border. All you need is a peace of patterned paper. Using your craft knife and cut a cross though the middle of the paper. Only cut up to a couple of inches in form the corners. If you have a pattern on the corners like this paper, blade around the pattern so it stays flat.

 Next spray water all over the paper, make it wet enough so that it is easy enough to manipulate.
 Then starting at the center of the paper, concertina, crumple and fold the paper back onto itself.
 Once you are happy with the folded borders use your craft knife to poke a hole into the center of the border and hold it together with a brad. Then Wallah a quick and easy dimensional border!
