Princess...

Almost December...you wouldn't know it by the temperatures outside. Yesterday +7..unreal. So unusual for Edmonton but I am definitely not complaining. The kids get to enjoy the snow and not freeze! I'm sure it won't last though. Yesterday Raydn got to make his first snowman (there was to much snow last year right off the start)..he was a little upset when the head fell off the first time though.  A little funny for me but probably traumatic for him.

This layout is of my "little princess", my niece Tiana. I used the new prima paper line. This picture was taken for my brothers wedding. I styled her hair, put some makeup on her face and bought her some fancy jewelery. That night she said she "felt like a princess".

On the chipboard, I painted it with mushroom dimensional pearls first, then embossed it with iridescent embossing powder, inked the whole thing with lots of fired brick distress ink and lastly inked the edges with walnut stain distress ink. I loved how it turned out glimmery and all blended. For my flowers, I first inked the edges but the pink didn't match; so I ended up chalking the flowers which turned out to be a more sutle, soft look. For my photo matts I used tissue paper, initially it was to pink so I glimmer misted it with marshmallow and tattered rose. Under the flowers, I actually used a mask. I embossed it again with the clear embossing powder, chalked the edges with pink and lastly blended it lightly with a cream chalk.


In this picture, I love that
Tiana's eye lashes look a mile long :)
