Best Friends with Belinda Spencer

Hi Flutterby peeps!!

Belinda here today to share a layout I have created using the awesome Fur-Ever Friends range as well as a bonus card made with the Mad About You range.

'Best Friends' Layout

How cute is that photo of my sweet boy with my darling cat Noodle as a kitten? Cuteness overload I reckon.

For this layout I was inspired by the rainbow stripes in the filler photo card. I swiped some stripes of Flutter Colour paint over my background using a folded up piece of cardstock. To be honest I couldn't find my loyalty card that I usually use in the chaos that is my desk so I improvised! Hey it worked!

I used those same colour paints to add some droplets of colour over the background too. I simply diluted the paints with water and flicked it over the surface with a wet paintbrush.

I used the Hugs & Kisses stencil with a fine waterproof black journalling pen to add some detail to my background. And just to mix things up a bit I used the 'Bubble O' Fun' mini stencil with some white gesso to add some white spots. They didn't show up all that well so I added some white Posca paint pen around the edge of some.

Finally I layered on all of my filler cards, a cute black Doodlebug Designs doily, a fussy cut frame, my photo and all of the embellishments. I love how well that gorgeous rainbow washi tape co-ordinates with the filler card.

'You & Me' Card

I used the Hugs & Kisses Stencil again on this one to create a lovely textured background. Once the molding paste was dry, I spritzed on some water and then used diluted Green Limousine paint to wash the colour over the surface.

And in my usual fashion, I added layer after layer of filler photo cards and embellishments from the Mad About You range.
