Let's get the fun started with an ALTERED ART project from Petaloo DT member Lynne Forsythe ...
I have to say......
when I laid my eyes on this month's
design team box.....I FELL IN LOVE!
Authentique's Nestled Collection
and LOTS of Petaloo blooms.
I began with a wooden star and painted the
edges and grooves with Perfect Paints
Shimmering Matte Acrylic ~ Espresso.
I then chose various papers from the
Authentique ~ Nestled Collection,
cut them to size,
distrezzed the edge
then I inked the edges with
Ranger Archival Ink ~ Orange Blossom.
I adhered the pieces down with
Ranger Multi Medium ~ Matte.
I then gathered up my Petaloo Blooms
Chantilly Mixed Blooms x 6 ~ Cream
Mixed Textured Mini Blossoms x 9 ~ Teal
Botanica Sugared Blooms x 4 ~ Mocha
and added a few from my stash
Botanica Floral Ephemera ~ Ivory
Sugared Berry Clusters x 3 ~ Teal.
....and created the ohh so FALL inspired
flower cluster!!
I finished off my Fall Star with
a wonderful quote stamp from
Yvonne Blair Designs/Impression Obsession.
I just loved these Authentique Nestled Papers
and the coordinating Petaloo Blooms that
I JUST COULDN'T STOP...
More distrezzing, inking and layering
and a bit of Petaloo Burlap Trims ~ Cream
accented with a
Petaloo Botanica Sugared Bloom x 4 ~ Mocha
and I came up with this
EASY PEASY Congrats Card!!!
THANK YOU for joining along with
my creative journey!!

The sentiment on the star is so beautiful. I love the papers you used and the way you distressed them is beautiful. Of course the flowers are stunning. This is a gorgeous project. I would love it if you did a tutorial on it. It is wonderful!

the star is beautiful.
A good way to use up scraps of paper as well as have a wonderful hanging for the front door. The flowers are gorgeous - they always are.
thanks for sharing.
