New Wall Hangings

I'm still in love with the Ciao Bella "Time for Home" paper collection but now I've found the Ciao Bella "Sound of Winter" paper collection which I've fallen in love with too! So I decided to make a heart wall hanging using both collections. I've done lots of fussy cutting of both collections and layered them on the wooden hearts that I picked up at my local dollar store. I'm quite happy at how both of them turned out. Here's the finished projects, I'd love to hear your comments!

Winter Canvas

Well I have totally fallen in love with Ciao Bella's "Time for Home" paper collection. The beautiful blues and whites of this winter collection are so perfect for any winter layout, or cards, or other projects. I made this canvas with a lot of inspiration from other projects I saw on the internet. I did a lot of fussy cutting of the different elements from this paper collection and layered them on the canvas. I added a lot of puffy paint to the different elements puffing them out with my heat tool, along with some silver glitter flakes. I was quite happy with how the canvas turned out. I would love to hear your comments on my canvas!

Stamperia Sealand Paper Collection

Since we live a few blocks from the ocean as soon as I see paper collections that involve beach/ocean themes I have to buy them and Stamperia's "Sea Land" collection was no exception. I fell in love with it and it went perfect with my grandson's pictures from his Grade 12 "Grad Boat Cruise" photo's! 

I distressed all of my papers with my Prima distress tool but instead of inking with "Vintage Photo" distress ink I used "Tumbled Glass" distress ink on all of the papers and I really like how it turned out. Here's the finished layout and I'd love to hear your comments.

Layout using Ciao Bella Broccato Estense Paper Collection

I just love the different paper collections from Ciao Bella and this "Broccato Estense" papers are soooo pretty! In this photo of my grandson he is wearing a blue hoodie so this paper collection was perfect for my layout. I distressed all of my papers but instead of using Tim Holtz "Vintage Photo" distress ink I used the "Faded Jeans" distress ink which I think looked great with these papers. I only cut 4 different size papers from the collection along with one of the tags with this sweet little bird on it. I took a duplicate tag and fussy cut the bird out of it then popped it up with foam pop dots on the original tag to give it a 3D look. I added some soft blue rose flowers from Prima and then some small navy blue rose buds from my stash as well as taking one of the rose buds and tearing the top edge of the paper which I rolled back and placed the rose bud after adding some other paper for backing. I added the wooden die cut "Family" title to the layout and called it done. I was really pleased at how the layout turned out. Here's the finished layout, I'd love to hear your comments on it, TFL!
