Four

I was searching for a title for this layout - and then it hit me, four ... simply four, that's how old she was when I took this photo.  I love the way the ruler turned out.  The background page is from the Ledger Pad from Prima - I'm really loving that pad, there are 48 sheets of varying colours which make for great backgrounds or cut-outs for the Julie Nutting dolls.  For the rulers I used gesso (black for the one on top, white for the bottom) and I added Inca Gold to highlight the numbers in red, and gold for the remainder of the ruler.  The roman numeral was from Finnabair's Mechanicals collection which I added gesso and then gelatoes.

Short and simple - sometimes the best things are left simple.

Um yeah, I'm not writing this blog post En Francias - but it's all about the Prima paper line En Francais collection!  This is part three of my projects created with this line - and I'm still not out of paper or inspiration.  It truly is a versatile collection.

I used some gesso to create white space then stamped over the gesso with the script stamp from this collection. Some Tim Holtz tickets in the corner, and a combination of Prima alphas and Thickers for the title.  Sepia photos are particularly perfect for this line.

I used a Prima mask on this layout with modeling paste and Pan Pastals to give texture to the feather in the corner.  I used another mask and tinted gesso with gelatoes and then painted with gelatoes for the bricks.  You see that folk - more BOY layouts, LOL and flowers on every single one of them too *grinz*
