My First Birthday

Hello Friends,
Today I want to share a good news with you all, Finally I'm going to get a CRAFT STUDIO. 40% of work is completed. I'm doing happy dance.
I made a simple mixed media layout again so that I can decorate my craft studio. This photo was taken in the year 1983 on my first  birthday and this is my favourite photo. 

It's Me

As the photo was in black & white I thought to do layout in near by colors so here I used Grey, White, Black & little brown, green & pink.
I took Grey Bloom Premium Collection from my all time favourite PAPERICIOUS papers.
Here I have used 3types of papers from that collection.
 I took 12*12, 11*11 & 10*10 papers & distressed the edge with distress ink and distressed the edge.
Next I cut a circle & distressed the edge & used stencil and spray on tat circle. Glued all this layers on top of each other.







I colored the MDF cutout with Gesso and Gelatos & glued it on corner.



Stamped Julie doll on watercolor paper and again I stamped on My Golden Garden collection for her dress. Colored her hands, face & hair in Prime watercolor pencils. Gave a 3D dimension to her hairband by using Glossy Aceents.
I glued the photo on MDF frame little cross. Added a lace under the photomat. The lace was white so I sprayed it with Melted Chocolate spray.








Used flowers, metal embellishment, flatback, diecut, etc to the layout.
Hope you like it.

Happy Crafting
