A 'Spring' in my Step

Hi! I'm excited to say that spring is finally showing signs of appearing where I live. I went for a walk the other day in sunshine for a change. It was so lovely that I couldn't resist taking a few happy snaps along the way.

Of course, I had to scrap the pics straight away. Here's the layout I made for The Dusty Attic.:


I tried to bring the sunshine to my page using bright yellows and oranges. 


A feature of the page is the stunning chipboard flower blooms. They're called Spring Blooms and I swear I didn't look at the name when I chose them for my page - lol! I painted these with Dusty Attic paints (the flowers are painted with the colour 'Sunshine' of course!) and the flower centres are made with Tinby Designs Colour Crush. I topped the flowers with a chippie ticket from the Tickets pack.


I've used two different chippie alphas for the main word in the title. I love mixing fonts! Again, I've painted them with Sunshine paint.


I've scattered some diamonds from the small Argyle Panel around the page and painted them black for a bit of extra punch. Those colourful circles are Colour Crush again. I think you're going to see a lot more of these from me!

The Dusty Attic products I used are:

Spring Blooms #4 DA1287

Tickets DA1465

Mini ABC Set Lower DA0862
and Mini ABC Set Upper DA0861

Tile ABC Set DA1119

Argyle Panel Small DA1011

Texture Paste DA1218

Dusty in Colour Paints in Sunshine,
Jungle Green, Forrest, Soot and Navajo White


Thanks so much for popping in.


Happy scrappin'!
