Life is beautiful- Layout

Hello, everyone!

I'm posting after a long time on my blog but have not stopped crafting. I have been posting regularly on the Papericious blog and I will be catching up with all my remaining posts here soon. Today, I have the very gorgeous Infinity Collection from Papericious to share. As soon as I received these papers in my DT kit, I knew it would be perfect for a mixed media layout. The gorgeous prints and the coordinating die cuts are perfect for creating a shabby chic project, so here's a look at what I have made using these beautiful papers.

To create my LO, I selected one of the 12 X 12 " sheet from the Infinity collection and stuck it on a sturdy 12 X 12" cardstock. I, gessoed over the entire paper, once that was dry, I went to work with texture paste and a stencil which I had created using a die cut. Then, I sprayed and colored over my stenciled area with Lindy's Stamp Gang and Heidi Swapp sprays. All the die cuts that I used on this layout, are from the Infinity Collection Die cuts pack itself. I, further embellished it using my handmade flowers and a little bit of stamping on the background to create more texture.
My LO was totally inspired by the Mood Board from Scrap Around the World- December Challenge. The gold glitter, the sentiment- "Future is bright" and the colors of the moodboard are my main inspiration which I've tried to incorporate within my layout.

Here are some close-up pictures for you to see all  the details :
