The Flying Unicorn Design Team is featuring the 7 Dots Illumination Collection on the 7 Dots Studio blog.

Products:

Tag: Julie Nutting tag pad

Papers: 7 Dots Illumination papers

Flowers: Prima

Metal Trinkets: Flying Unicorn

Pearls and ribbon: unknown

The Book of Gratitude #2- Blue Fern Studios Reveal

This is the second book of gratitude I created for my Blue Fern Studios reveal this month. Its a little different than the other one but still unique on its own. 

To see the first book I created this month scroll back to the post below.

I used a different set of Blue Fern Garden papers to cover this journal I bought from the dollar store. Then, I also covered the seams with some stencilled moulding paste. This time I used a different stencil to mimic the pattern on the Blue Fern Garden paper.

The Prima flowers I used really complimented the colour scheme of this journal.

I used two different shades of Silks glaze paint to cover all the different flowers on the cover as well as the mini butterfly.

The Lattice fence was roughly covered with gesso leaving parts unpainted.

Materials:

Book: dollar store

papers and chipboard: Blue Fern Studios

Flowers: Prima

Golden Gesso

Stencil: Prima

Golden Light Molding Paste

Silks Glazes

Alpha: Prima

I try to find things to be thankful and grateful each and every day.

I hope you sit back today and find something to be thankful for.

Thanks so much for visiting my Blog

Have a wonderful day!!!
