Happy Wednesday!! My second project with the beautiful November Limited Edition kit by My Creative Scrapbook. It is about my sister Karen when she was four years old, I remembered that day that my mom took us to the zoo many years ago, the photo isn't a great quality but for me has a great value.
The LE kit comes with these fabulous vintage cards by Finnabair, paper doily and the lace that I painted with oil pastels by Prima.
I cut out some tags and butterflies from the WE R papers from the kit to make the design in this page.

Magic and Wonder with Vintage Christmas !!

Hello lovely friends! I worked with the new Vintage Christmas collection by Blue Fern Studios. It is so beautiful the paper and design are divine .
I selected the Auld Lang Syne paper and the Wonderland paper(base) for this page about my kids in the 2003 Christmas.  I treated the paper with gel medium. and after dry  I used the Imagine Ink "Winter Mist"  to enhance the beautiful blue/mint color tones on the paper. It's great that we have now  the mist, glitter and embossing powder in the same paper colors. 

I gave textures with a stencil and a mix of Imagine Ink-Glitter -"Pyrite" with gel medium.  The Winter Village chipboard was enhanced with the Imagine Ink-Embossing Powder-Fern. and added some Pyrite glitter.


My title is the Framed Winter Words chipboards that I treated with the embossing powder -Fern.



Here you can see the effect of the glitter in the chipboard and in the background.
