Amanda Lawrence - May DT Share

Hi Memory Maze readers! I'm back with you today to share some more of my creations using the delicious Memory Maze chipboard. My first project is based on an Inspired Blueprints sketch.

Something so sweet about you

I began with the background. I used a sheet of paper to make the heart mask and positioned it around a sticker of the word 'you'. I first applied ink and then some stamping being careful not to move the mask. When I was done I removed the mask and the word sticker and highlighted the design with a black pen outline.

My title was made up with mixed font but included the chipboard word 'sweet'. I also used a small chipboard heart in one of the embellishment clusters which I covered with washi tape.

The chipboard butterfly got a light coat of ink and then some black pen to highlight the outline.

Hello there Sonshine

 I am loving all the little micro pieces from Memory Maze. These little film reels are perfect to pop on just about and page! Just a light coat in ink was all it needed.

I also used an arrow from the arrow pack which again, just a light coat of ink before wrapping it with some cotton.

 Waves

I love the swirly scroll shapes of all the wrought iron pieces available. There are so many designs to choose from and I loved this one to emulate the rolling waves at the beach.

I gave it a 'beachy' effect by adding an uneven coat of gesso and then lightly sanding some sections back.

I also gave the background cardstock a beachy feel with masking, stamping and some splatters. 

Sanding and scratching around the edges of the photos also added to the weathered look of the page.
