'You are Unique' layout for Finnabair CT

Hello dear friends! 
Today I'm hosting Finnabair's blog with a layout and a video tutorial!


I found this amazing photo on Pinterest and thought it would be perfect to express some thoughts and personal believes: How awesome is to be me! To be different from the rest of the crowd and feel good about it! 
So, I created a layout full of colors, contrast, little messages, butterflies and a really beautiful elephant :)

For this project I used a lot of butterfly stamps in different shapes - you can find them in Rust&Dust and Dream On sets. I decided to cut out my stamped butterflies and turn them into 3D embellishments to decorate the composition.
I also used a Lace stencil in a different way, 2 shades of Mica Powder (Green and Purple), Heavy White Gessoand of course a lot of Glass Beads and Glass Glitter mixed with 3D Gloss Gel.

You can see the whole process in my video below.

Here are some details...







I hope you will find my video inspiring and get some new ideas!

To create this page I got inspired by this amazing color pallet at  Berry71Blue...

Happy July everyone!
Today I'm sharing a small canvas I created for my art wall.
It's an elephant drawing with 7 Dots Studio stickers 


Here is the July's graphic for your inspiration.
I love this month's color pallet!

 Ι decided to make an elephant because I wanted something for my art wall to remind me to remember, not to forget :)
 I always have been an absent-minded person: I forget all the time what I want to do in the next minute, or what I did a minute before, names, numbers...  pretty annoying, but also funny. So, if you have any secrets, I'm the right person to tell, lol
They say that elephants never forget, so I think that having one in my room will help my memory :)
I really enjoyed drawing and coloring it with the sprays...
And of course it's already hanging on the wall :)




So, will you play with Lindy's Stamp Gang products this month?
I can't wait to see your projects!
