Welcome to the 13 Arts blog!
I hope that 2020 will be a very creative year for all of us!
Our design team does their very best to provide you with lots of inspiration!
For today's project, I have created a layout featuring a photo from Stella de Libero of one of her lovely designs. I love the juxtaposition of the fabulous gown against the wood slats of the Washed Wood paper, Grungy Walls. I've paired a sheet from Rose Fields, Evening Story which was torn and layered in the upper center of the page.
After coating my papers with Clear Gesso, I did some stencil work with the Wonderful Nature Stencil and some Modeling Paste. When that was dry, I did some random stamping using the Rose For You A6 Stamp and permanent black ink.
Additional photo layers were created from the Evening Story as well as a white die cut I had on my desk. I've also used one of the wreaths from the In Bloom Ephemera Pack.
For color I've used both Ayeeda Paint - Matte Raspberry as well as Chalk Burnt Sienna mist, often mixing the two. As well as painting with one of my brushes and moving with water, I also did some paint splattering. My white splatters were from the Watercolor set 16 pans - set of watercolors.

For texture, I've used Ecru Sisal, 3D balls medium, Gold Microspheres XS and of course, some 49 and Market florals from my stash along with a few flat-backed pearls.
My chipboard title and flourish piece are both from the Chipboard set Summer Rhapsody A4 and were left natural.
I love adding color around my focal area to make it really pop!
I've used a few pieces of corrugated cardboard to elevate my photo for further dimension.
And here I'm sharing a close-up of the wreath from the ephemera pack.
That's all for today.
We thank you so much for coming by and for supporting us here at 13 Arts.
I'll see you next time!
