Bee Arty DT - Happy Times

Hello Bee Arty fans!

It's Belinda here today to share with you my latest layout created for Bee Arty and featuring the stunning Grateful Heart collection.

Here I have mixed some of the Duke Colour Shimmer Dust with some water in a small bowl and have tested the colour in a spare art journal that I keep by my desk for this purpose.

I cropped a piece of the Faith patterned paper from the Grateful Heart collection and mounted it onto some of the awesome 350gsm White Cardstock. I spritzed it with a little water and dropped in the Duke Shimmer Dust. I spritzed with more water and played around with it on the page until I had a good coverage. Then I set aside the page to dry.

I added a doily to the page and then fussy cut the gorgeous floral design from another sheet of the Faith patterned paper. I painted the flowers with the Duke Shimmer Dust and water mix and let dry. I used a 1mm White Life of Colour Paint Pen to add some sketchy lines to the flowers.

I cropped some patterned papers from the range, layered together and added to the page. I also fussy cut a birdcage and bird, painted with the Duke/water mix and added to the layout.

I used a paint brush to apply some of the Duke/water mix to a flower stamp from the Floral Delights 1 Clear Stamp Set and stamped on an extra piece of the white cardstock. Once dry, I fussy cut and slipped in and under the patterned paper stack.

And here is the completed layout.

I die cut a Postage Stamp frame and some leaves using a die from the Leaves of Paradise die set and coloured them using the Duke/water mix and added to the page once dry. I finished with some more fussy cut leaves, a flower and some words.
