Using the Birds of Paradise
stencil, use only the flower half of the stencil and gesso 2 flowers on the top
left and bottom right hand corners, as per the layout photo. Allow this to dry.
4.
Using your spray bottle,
spray liberal amounts of water over your gesso areas. Add little drops of denim blue paint onto these wet
areas. Now spritz more water into
these little drops of paint, so that it starts to run. Pick up your page and move the paint
and water around, so that it runs in between your gesso stencilled areas. Allow
this to dry.

Randomly stamp with the Prima
background stamp, all over your page, using Sahara Sand pigment ink.

diameter ornate circle from the Serenity 2 patterned paper and edge with the

Cut the 4inch diameter plain
circle from the Peaceful patterned paper and adhere to the centre of your 7inch
diameter ornate circle.

Double matt the photo with
firstly the denim blue cardstock and then the greyish side of the Harmony
patterned paper.

Raise the matted photo with
3D foam and adhere to the middle of the plain circle.
10. Paint the large Lilly filigree chipboard with denim blue
paint. Allow this to dry and then
add white highlights. Adhere to the left hand side of the ornate circle and
photo.
11. Stamp with the Prima leaf stamp around the top left hand side of
the ornate circle down towards to the right hand side of the page, using

highlight with a white gel pen.
