Awesome Guy : Case File 231

Awesome Guy Layout

Hello and welcome to June.
How are you all? Jodie here today with my layout called Awesome Guy for the CSI Challenge. You can join the challenge here: http://csichallenge.blogspot.com.au/ 

awesome
I have used this Case File to create my layout and features the Red, Blue, Yellow, White Scheme. For the evidence my layout consists of White Background, stripes and stars. My inspirational word is Awesome which is from the Testimony. 

awesome


This is how I completed the layout.



To create the stars on the background I used my star stencil from Scrapmatts and inked through the stencil. 


Creating the rolled paper stripes down the page, I used straws and covered them with paper. 



I wanted to feature the quote on the picture so I used the star circle chipboard and I coloured it fire brick red distress ink. 


This is the quote on the photo that my daughter posted on her facebook page for Father's Day. The awesome guy is her Step Dad and the quote really does reflect the man he is.



Using the smaller star circle chipboard which I coloured in mustard seed distress ink I framed the photo of my husband. He really is a goof ball. The embellishment cluster features a Scrapmatts charm, a bo bunny sticker and the heart is from my stash. The blue stars are a washi tape. 
The awesome sticker is Heidi Swapp and the chipboard 'man' word is from Scrapmatts. To colour the word I used royal blue versa ink and then used the glitter pen from Close to my Heart to add sparkle.

For my second project for the month, I have decided to use the Art Frame from Scrapmatts.
Here is the finished frame.

I have used the Sage and Grace Collection from Kaisercraft to decorate the frame. I love the pastel colours of this paper. 






To decorate I have used some charms, collectables and chipboard. To colour the chipboard I used gold ink available from Scrapmatts (Australia Only) and to ink the edges I used the Umber ink from Versa. The leaves behind the fussy cut flowers are from the rose string circles.

Merlin's Beard

MERLIN'S BEARD

CASE FILE NO 225

CSI CHALLENGE


Welcome to March. Already this year is flying past. March happens to be my favourite month, as I celebrate my birthday in the first week and lucky for me in the West (Western Australia) it always falls on a long weekend.

This month we have been asked to guest design for the CSI Challenge.
Head over to see all the other amazing designers and their work.

So here is the Case file that I have used to design my layout this month.



Merlin's Beard
This is my completed layout based on the CSI Case File.


EVIDENCE: I have used washi tape, things that fly, animals, circles, wood, feathers, stars.
TESTIMONY: I have handwritten on my background and started with an idiom.  


 

I have used  CB1222 Feathers  and CB5158 Triangles  to embellish the corners. To colour the chipboard I have used Crushed Olive Distress Ink.


To frame my photo I have used the CB5138 String Circles. This has been painted with white gesso.
  To create the background, I have used the ST1026 Circle Stencil.
The washi tape was a perfect fit for this layout.


The journaling says " I snapped this pic in my front yard. This beautiful owl was perched on the tree. It was early morning. I quickly grabbed my camera and managed to get this shot. When I look at it, it reminds me of the owl from Harry Potter. HEDWIG"


 So my layout had to have a Harry Potter theme.
I hope you have enjoyed my take on the challenge and I look forward to seeing what the other DT members designed for this challenge.

All the chipboard on this layout can be found at
Scrapmatts by clicking on the link to their store at http://papertoleaustralia.com/

Here are a list of items used





TRANQUILITY CANVAS

My second project is a Dreamcatcher Canvas that I have hand painted and used Scrapmatts chipboard to embellish.


For the centre of the Dreamcatcher I have used the CB4070 String Circle Roses.
I painted over the chipboard with acrylic paint.

 The word is from CB6087 Assorted Words 15.
I have painted in Black Soot from Dusty Attic.


 For the background I added stars with the ST5042 Star Stencil.
I then flicked gesso over the background for some added texture.

Here are the pieces I have used.
