#wonderfulday

Another layout for our 2015 Ekka album:



I was inspired by these challenges ~

Scrap the Girls, with their gorgeous Good as Gold mood board.   I scrapped a picture of my daughter, and used the colours of black and gold.

> More Than Words, with the prompts of WONDERFUL and SPARKLE:


I used WONDERFUL in the title, and lots of glitter cardstock:



> Mixed Media Monthly Challenge, with the prompt of GLITTER:


The mixed media element is the stencilling, and glitter cardstock used as a photo mat and cut into star embellishments.

> C'est Magnifique Mixed Media challenge, following the stencil bump tutorial.  I used texture paste for my base layer, and my 'bumped' layer is gold metallic creative medium.



This was a new technique for me so I was a bit tentative and conservative, but I like the result and will try the technique again on future projects.

Materials
Authentique Classique - Elegant One cardstock 
CTMH Silhouette patterned paper
Sullivans Glitter - Gold cardstock
Stamper's Anonymous Tim Holtz - Stars layered stencil
Texture paste
Imagine Crafts CM - Metallic Gold paste
