Nostalgic and Shabby Chic Post

Hello dear friends!

You are with Sandrine today and I have a few things to share! Full of chipboard goodness of course!

First up a layout!

"There is no place like home"


It is a photo taken while traveling last September, it is very special to me, it is about my country of birth that I still call home, I love this picture of my son standing proud and tall as he loves it there too!
Here I used a hot air balloon to keep with the traveling theme, I coloured with a white gel pen and tied a little cotton thread around its base, I also used a tiny Kerry Flourish coloured with white gesso and glimmermist:



I used "There is no place like Home" title coloured with white gel pen and the chipboard triangle banner was covered with patterned paper"


I used a tiny arrow here coloured with white gel pen:

My other project is a set of shabby chic Xmas tags! I used a vintage colour combo and a few techniques.

"Christmas Tags"


I covered my tiny oval frame with white crackle paint and my small reindeer and star with German Glass Glitter in gold, I left my title "Noel" raw:

 I covered large tree and title with white crackle paint, I painted my holly flourish with white gel pen added some distress stickles to the leaves and gold glitter to berries and shapes on tree:


 I used the tiny presents board as a base to sit the Christmas Tree on and then layered my title and flourish on top, I used same techniques as above tag, I added a rolled bit of paper at the bottom of the tree as well:
