Oh That Glow Layout

     In less than a week I'm going to be an aunt again! I'm so excited, and scrapped this STUNNING photo of my little sis, taken by our very talented photographer cousin, Regina Marie! 

     I knew the colors would be the perfect match for the February Color Challenge at Lindy's Gang.

     The background started with torn strips of Prima Marketing (Golden Coast) papers, stamping, shells, twine, and cheesecloth, adhered with Prima Marketing Soft Matte Gel. Then I added burlap and touches of white gesso, and colored it all with Lindy's Gang Sprays (Cosmopolitan Pink, Fuzzy Navel Peach, and Violaceous Violet), Magical (Sandra Dee Sepia) and Magical Shakers (Oom Pah Pah Pink, Bratwurst Brown, Grab A Guy Gold, and Polka Purple). 

     Along the bottom, I added some Finnabair Mini Art Stones, and Lindy's Gang Embossing Powders (Hollyhock Scarlet Plum, Angel Wings Gold, and Byzantine Bronze). To highlight the stones, I went over them again with white gesso.

     The diecut and chipboard letters on the left, are from the Bo Bunny (Sunshine Bliss) Collection. After covering the letters with white gesso, I painted them a few times with a mix of LG Magical (Sandra Dee Sepia) and Magical Shaker (Bratwurst Brown).

     The GLOW Thickers were also covered with white gesso, and painted with LG (Grab A Guy Gold) Magical Shaker and (Fuzzy Navel Peach) Spray. Then I embossed them with LG (Angel Wings Gold) EP for some shine. 

     The DIY Petaloo Burlap Flowers were given light touches of white gesso, and painted with LG Sprays (Fuzzy Navel Peach and Cosmopolitan Pink) and Magical Shakers (Oom Pah Pah Pink, Grab A Guy Gold, and Polka Purple). Clear, frosted and pink beads were added to the centers to mimic sea glass. 

     I also stamped and fussy cut some of the flowers. The larger ones were embossed with Lindy's Gang (Hollyhock Scarlet Plum) EP, and the smaller ones were stamped with Ranger Archival Ink (Potting Soil) and embossed with LG (Clearly Clear) Embossing Powder. 

     I finished it up with some more beads scattered among the flowers and shells. Thanks so much for stopping by!
