May All Roads Lead Home...

Happy New Year! This layout is about "finding yourself" and starting out the new year with new goals and finding inspiration! I got out all my shabby goodies...lace, pearls, chiffon flowers, gesso, and had so much fun!

I'm going to put this in a white distressed wood frame and hang in my bedroom, which I am redoing in pinks/white and gold, and pink roses.


I used Primas Debutante papers from the 6 X 6 pack. The printed
designs are smaller and I love the draping pattern on the background paper. I used four pages to make the 12 X 12 background. I used many adhesive pop dots and adhesive strips to give my design dimension.

I painted the chipboard frame with gesso and then sprinkled some Finnabair gold opal magic mica powder on top. I then painted a second layer of gesso. There is a beautiful translucent gold sheen on the frame.


I draped a lace appliqué with pearls along both sides of the frame. I thought it coordinated nicely with the chipboard dyesign.



And then started placing all the beautiful flowers from Prima, Reneabouquets, and Tresors de Luxe, and the adorable little fairy die cuts from Little Scrap Shop at Etsy.



Thank you so much for stopping by!
