Bloom Baby Bloom ****Scrap Fx****CSI #18

The photo is of my BF granddaughter baby Kaylee.I took this photo when she was only a day old,she is 7 months old now & is such a little sweetheart.This is a 7 x 12 shadow box from Scrap Fx.To take the photo of the shadow box,I glued it on matching paper,then temporally attached the lace to it,once I took the photo's I removed the lace & cut off the excess paper (this allowed me to have a good background for my shadow box). I use G 45 Little Darlings & Scrap Fx Shadow Box,Decorative Frame Artsy,Baby Embellishment Pack (200920), Baby Wordlet theme pack (2009020), the Curly Bird (2012084)& the Victorian Baby Carriage(2011101), I just love the way this turned out,what a wonderful baby gift,I will be sure to do another shadow box,so much fun!!!!

This is a close up of the Victorian baby carriage,it is so beautiful.I first painted it with a couple coats of vintage white acrylic paint,then I applied a little bit of liquid pearls cantaloupe.On the body of the carriage I used rock candy crackle,to give it a aged look,then I used liquid accents on the wheels to give them dimension.Once dry I glued on lace & bling..

This is a close up of the curly bird,soother,& rattle,I used the same as I did on the carriage,I used crackle on the curly bird & the inside frame,& liquid accents on all the other pieces.

Another close up of frame,carriage & wordlet Baby,I love the 3D look.

This month we will be working with chippy's that go along with country & farm Theme's.The photo is of my oldest son Sigurdur with Afi at the farm.I used Bo Bunny Weekend Market collection & Bo Bunny Ec Cetera on this LO.I was inspired by Tracey (AKA) Garden of Grace, with her hemp flowers ,you can find her amazing tut for flowers on her blog.

I used the Scrap Fx wordlet, Time Goes By (20102950),Tractor (2012085),wood grain twigs (2012080) & chicken wire (2011186)

I didn't do a lot with the chippy's as I wanted them to just look rustic, so all I used was rust alcohol ink,bronze perfect pearls mist,StazOn Metallic inker, copper & then I inked the edges with black
