Moment in Time by Kristy Abela - September Mood Board Challenge

Welcome back to another mood board challenge. My personal favourite colours are coppers and teals when crafting... My collections dominates my shelves. 

This is the regular crew at my place, my sons and their best mates... can you pick who are mine and who's not???

Please forgive me for bending the rules... I used a Dragonfly! 

Check our some process shots below..

Some texture for the background

Some Lindy's sprays and a bit of dry brushing with White Gesso.

Highlighting the depth with a charcoal pencil. 

Lots of embossing with Lindy's of Scrap FX chipboards and a bit of a highlight with some Prima Waxes.

I used some rust pastes on some of the pieces as well to give it the rustic look. I finished off the patina with some blue waxes. 

Added some stones and some beads and a couple of metal charms from my stash.

My favourite part of the whole project is the way this dragonfly turned out... 

The way the wings took on the graduation of colour was perfection!

Thanks for looking Soul Sisters!
