Every Picture Tells a Story

Kathi here today with a 12 X 12” layout -  The base paper is by graphic 45,  black with tan dots.  I created on the left side out of coordinating paper a border, then I layered a corrugated strip on which I placed a laser chipboard. The corrugated strip was brushed with white gesso.  

The laser chipboard (movie camera) was covered with a piece of the paper that was fussy cut around the chipboard. Parts of the movie camera were painted a combination of black & silver to creating an older look to the camera. 

The film strip was painted black with red metallic leafing.   A rose was placed in the center of the filmstrip.   

The rose was frosted on the tips using white gesso. 

The Word & Phrases piece was painted with distress paint “antique linen” .

Flourishes where cut from a die using the coordinating paper.The photo was matted with the coordinating paper. Intricate Doilies where cut in half and placed under the photo’s edge in two areas.
