This week we bring you the beautiful work of Bonnie Friesen. She scrapped the photo of her beautiful Great Niece's. There are a few wonderful techniques in this LO that just leave us inspired. The gorgeous Dusty Attic Foliage Bonnie used Distress stains and Rock Candy Distress Stickles. The stains are rich in color and the Stickles leave the piece with a wonderful sparkle. Krissy opens up those DA special orders now and then . You have to jump on it and get some!! For the title chipboard she first painted it with an acrylic antique white, then splattered Rangers Espresso paint with an old toothbrush, and then splattered some green Distress stain. When that was dry she put a thick layer of Glossy Accents on top. You cant buy that in a store!!
But the special part about this LO are the flowers...Bonnie took off of some of her mom's many silk flower arrangements after she passed away. She explains that it is nice to look back a see little pieces of her here and there. How sweet is that!!
We just love this LO Bonnie...Fantastic page!!
