Color Inspiration

It's time for a color inspiration from ScrapTiffany! This week it's tiffany blue, brown and cream. Remember last week I told you about the layout that I was in love with? Well, this is it. I hope you enjoy it as much as I do :)

For this layout I used a technique that Jennifer McGuire showed on her blog. It shows 3 different ways to use paint and one of the ways was to stamp with it. That's what I did here. I stamped a border on the brown background with cream paint. I also used the same stamp to do a border on the cream cardstock with blue paint. The mat behind the photo was stamped cream on cream and then inked with Vintage Photo Distress Ink. I also painted the rose as well as stamp the "I DO".

Here is an up close shot of the boutonniere that I re-created. I had saved it from the wedding, Rick was the best man, and the real rose had dried out. I clipped it off and replaced it with a paper one. I added some feathers to the background on top of this plastic doily.

I hope you give stamping with your paints a try, it was tons of fun!!
