September Guest Designer - Anguree Jansen van Rensburg 'Fabulous'


Anguree here - I’m back on the blog today with another layout using the Flutter Colour Paints and the NO EXCUSES -FILLER CARDS, so I hope you like it.


'FABULOUS'

As mentioned in my earlier first post for this month I was really inspired by all the paint splats in this new release, so I decided to create some splatters myself using my favourite paint and black cardstock.  Tip: When you use as much paint as I did, it really takes quite a while to dry, especially if you live in a humid environment like I do. If you do want to try this, I’d suggest you have a play and then go out the house for a coffee, work or go and do some shopping so it can dry properly before you play more.  Once it was dry I added some white twine and pink enamel dots.



Next I matted my photo onto one of the cards and placed it on the card I used for the journaling in my first guest design. Remember how I said not to chuck it in the bin? Well, as you can see here, I carefully added some pink card to fill the gap I created by cutting out the phrase and added some handwritten journaling onto a tiny strip of white cardstock. This way it looks like it’s meant to be and part of the original card. Cool hey? One of the other cards in the stack has the word “Awesome” printed on it, so again cut out one of the words to form part of my journaling.



Popped on a DIY flair button & I also punched out a tab from one of the coordinating cards and added more journaling. Last but not least I used one of the cards to cut out my title using a Kaisercraft die.



Voila it was done.
Till next time, enjoy your paints. If you don’t have them yet, do make sure to
order some of the Boss Lady. They are yummy – really ( I have already purchased
2 sets because I simply can’t get enough…

I've got one more share from Anguree - so be on the lookout for that ;)

"Hello Fifteen"- Sharmaine Kruijver

Do you have months of birthdays, one after another, in your family?
We are almost to the end of a run of birthdays here
so you have to suffer another birthday layout from me!!
 
 
Created using a mix of the Flutter Colour Paint, "Aquamarine Dream" and "Stormy Grey",
some texture paste and the star stencil.
 
 

I then layered up some Everyday Etc Cards, coloured a wood bit
and added some flair and enamel dots.
 
 
I also cut out a tiny camera, from an Everyday Etc Card,
and coloured it with some water colour paint.
 
Hope you have a creative weekend
