Welcome to our Home Decor SU Style Blog Hop for October 2020! I hope you enjoy our Giftable Home Decor themed hop. I have made a 12 x 12 inch picture to gift to a friend who has moved into a new house. I was visualising pictures in an art gallery and i think i have achieved it.
I have used our stamparatus to stamp the images onto the watercolour paper with memento tuxedo black ink. Then i used the water painters and Stampin’ Up! classic ink to water colour the images that I chose from the various stamp sets I have. I then die cut the images to fit the ornate frames dies.
This month’s fabulous theme challenge was set for us by Design Team Member Sherry Roth. There are so many things that could have fitted this theme it took me a while to concentrate and decide what excited me the most.
I do hope you like what I came up with! I have really enjoyed sitting quietly in my garden, with a cup of coffee, watching the butterflies enjoying the buddleia bushes I have planted over the past few years. As I am working from home this year I have had more opportunities to take breaks in the garden – I really do feel blessed.
I printed 3 of the many photographs that I took over the past few weeks and just played around until I liked what I saw. I had no proper idea of what i was aiming for – it just evolved over a couple of hours. I am new to scrappbooking but i find it so relaxing. If you haven’t had a go yet but would like to – stop thinking about it and just go for it – it’s so much fun. The pages I have made this year are so much more fun to share than a pile of pictures in a phone.
Please make yourself comfy and have a look around our blog hop there will be some amazing layouts to inspire you. Next blog to visit is Sara Levin The Artful Inker who organises this blog for us (thank you Sara).
