Beautiful - Layout

I know its been a long time between posts, I have been flat out busy with my new little business Embellish With Flair and have been lucky enough to have been given the opportunity to teach at a few craft shows around Australia.
Next week I am off to Canberra and later in the Month Melbourne.
 
I just want to share a layout I recently created of my gorgeous cousin.
I have used many different products on this layout so I will do my best to list them as I share the layout with you. 
 
BEAUTIFUL
 
I started with white cardstock, I watered down some yellow chalk paint and used a plastic bag to sponge the paint onto the cardstock.
 
I then used Damask Stencil 9025 from Scrapmatts with modelling paste and randomly went over the painted area.
 
I wanted to add another colour, so I used a dark shade of brown water paint and added a splash here and there.

I also added a little stamping to the background.

 
I then painted the hexagon chipboard with some metallic copper paint and tucked it under the photo and to the top left of the layout.


 
I also tucked some a few chipboard leaf sprays under the flowers, I painted them with some Gold metallic paint and then using my finger I applied a little white gesso to soften the look. 
 

 
To finish of the layout I used some chipboard words 'Beautiful'
and 'Close to my heart'
I love the natural brown leather look these chipboard pieces have, and they worked really well on this layout.
