Kellso Collage

…for all life's little projects

Submitted…for your approval

Here it is, my first Design Team submission for Mystic Paper!  MP has been selling great antique bottles, and I wanted to give people a little inspiration…

These beautiful winter-themed papers are from Webster’s Pages, and they were all lovely.  The pastel colors were a bit of a challenge, as was finding wintery-type pictures of my Arizona family!  But, despite our red sweaters in the pics, I think it turned out OK.  The pictures are of our trip to the Kellso’s ranch last December at the annual Prescott tree lighting ceremony.  I used the theme ‘Give Yourself’ with these particular photos, hoping that special times together, during the holidays and always, are what influence my kids, more than presents and celebrations!

TECHNIQUE TUTORIAL:  I love the ’speckled’ look of the letters in ‘Give Yourself’, and it was so easy to do!  After cutting out the letters, I turned each letter over onto a Distress Ink pad, and, using the lid of the ink pad, pressed down gently onto the letter.

The chipboard (used for the stand), bottles, beeswax, ribbon, ink, and papers are all available at Mystic Paper!

    I think the pink glittery stuff on the bottle looks like snow- love it!

    I’m so glad you ‘got’ that-that’s what I was going for. The recipe is UTEE, Matte medium (glue), and glitter!

  5. Wow Jenna! This turned out fantastic. I too love the glitter snow. :) So pretty.
