Cherish The Time by Suzy Loudon

Hello everyone. Welcome back to the Colour Blast Blog where there's always plenty to see & lots of inspiration.

It's not often we get am family picture so today I'm sharing a page of just that during a fun day at Seaworld. 

To begin my page I coated my cardstock with Mod Podge to seal it as I wanted my sprays to sit on the page rather than soak into the cardstock. 

I sprayed Coffee Colour Spray onto my acrylic block, gave it a spray of water, then turned my block upside down & stamped it onto my page,

I did this until I had the coverage I wanted.

I did the same thing with Mocha Colour Spray building up layers.

Using Lagoon Colour Spray I did the same again.

Using the new Colour Shimmer Spray in Sienna I added a light spray. I took 2 photos as the left one with the flash shows up the shimmer a lot better.

A tap of Roadbase Colour Spray around the page & my background was done.

I used Deep Water Colour Embossing Powder on some chipboard.

I did 2 layers with Dusty Charcoal Colour Embossing Powder on some more chipboard.

My chipboard letters for my title I used the new colour in Sienna with 2 layers of Colour Embossing Powder. I later glued on some micro beads (you can see that in a close up later) 

I sprayed a chipboard clock with Roadbase Colour Spray.

I wanted to add some cogs as embellishments, but so they wouldn't get lost with all the brown colours I added some Colour Embossing Powder on sections in Deep Water, Leather & Sienna. But be very careful as when you heat the metal it gets really hot. so be patient & wait for it to cool a little before touching.

I added to background paper to mat my photo, also using cardboard between my layers for depth.

Put it all together & it was done.

Thanks for stopping by.
