Layout for the March More Than Word challenge

Hi there !

I did slow down crafty things a little this week, as I will be moving next Monday... But I did have time to play with the March challenge of the More Than Word blog.

scrapbooking layout with stencils, stamps and layers

I almost use all the colors in the colour combo :


The word inspiration was : COMFORTABLE. What makes me comfortable ? It could have been a picture of a lounge chair with a blanket, a book, and a fancy coffee. Could have been one of my favorite dress. But sitting on a branch outside barefoot definitively won the prize ! So I found this lovely picture on internet and decide that it will reflect perfectly a comfortable mood !


I did a lot of work on this layout ! I started by choosing papers from the Celebration collection by Maja Designs (I won it from a previous challenge, see me unbox this prize there ).
Then I started the background by playing with stamps, stencils, watercolor pencils, gold crackle paste, gesso...


I did continue to add layers with a Tim Holtz cutting die with green cardstock, flower dies with white cardstock, microbeads in gold and berry, some watered gesso, golden twine, die cut leaves and flowers.


I layered the paper too, using stitching rectangle dies, black pen and gold ink to give more dimensions.

Well, that took me a while... Luckily, I have prepared my tomorrow's post in advance, so you are covered for you daily dose of creativity... I have a another mixe media project for nex week, so you will not suffer from my lack of presence due to my moving !

Thank you for stopping by today. Wish me luck for this challenge. And see you tomorrow !
