Sweet but Sassy by Charmane Koch

Happy Tuesday Everyone! Hoping life is treating everyone well!

Today I am sharing with you a layout that has been WEEKS in the making! I've had this layout ready to go in my head but do you think I could execute it in REAL LIFE??? Not sure what the deal was, but it has finally come together & I just LOVE the outcome of it!

I had a few ideas in my head with this one - the Moonshadow Stencil I thought would make great "bubbles" I also was loving the thought of using the silver Mirror board to create "silvery bubbles" too...

I also wanted to create a 3D/layered effect so thought I would get out some ripped cardboard to gesso and colour with shimmer dusts/mica  powders...

I went on a bit of a Die Cutting frenzy using Silver Mirror Board & also white Cardstock...

I used the Calendula, DeVine, Moon Rock and the Good Time/Great Day Dies...


I test ran the colour combo for my cardboard... I used Peacock & Passion Shimmer Dusts, and also a touch of Steel Mica Powder too...

I gesso'd the Chipboard heart & little words, then used the leftover mica/shimmer dusts to match the cardboard... the heart I coloured roughly to match the rustic look of the cardboard.

I coloured the Wood Veneer letters without using gesso as I wanted them to be darker - I used the Cobalt Shimmer Dust for these.


My finishing touches to this layout was to add more of the Silver Mirrorboard Dies... tucked under and around the page...


The words were perfect for this too!




Once I got it out and positioned where I wanted everything it all worked out in the end!

I'll definitely be doing similar layouts as I still have a couple more photos!

How stunning is the Moondshadows range by the way???

Thanks for popping by & I hope I have inspired you!
