Small Indulgence- 7 Dots Studio



Hi Everyone,
I'm just delighted to finally  be able to show you my first project using the new collections from 7 Dots Studio.

I recently received a box filled with all 3 beautiful collections and I was just in awe and truly amazed by their beauty.
These collections are just fantastic and I couldn't wait to create with them.

This is my first layout,  using the Nature Walk collection.


I love drinking a cup of coffee, especially because it wakes me up from my sleepy state. I'm just so tired in the mornings when  I wake up and coffee really does the trick.


I did a lot of stamping using the new 7 Dots Studio stamps from the Illumination collection. By adding different types of stamps to the background I was able to achieve texture. Then I layered using bits and pieces from the Nature Walk Elements.


The splatters were created using Tim Holtz Distress inks.

I loved creating a masculine layout for my son using the deep earthy tones from the Cartographer collection. This is the perfect collection for all your vintage and traveling photos.

Just the two of us- Flying Unicorn March Kit



Here is another one of my creations for the March Kit for Flying Unicorn.
My daughter took this picture of my husband and I while we were having coffee at Starbucks. I think she did a pretty good job!!


I used the black and white papers and embellishments for this layout accenting it with reds and yellows for colour.


Those three colours are from Shimmerz and they are called Sunny, Before Dawn and Royal Red.
I love painting with the Shimmerz paints as they are super bright and smooth. They also last a very long time as there's lots of pigment in the jar and all you have to do is add water.




Products used:
papers: Authentique
Flowers: Petaloo, Prima
Shimmerz paints
Stamp: BoBunny
Ranger black archival ink
Metal embellishments: Flying Unicorn

Hope you are having a wonderful day!!
enjoy!!
