Happy Birthday, Gina's Designs!

In my life, April and May are huge birthday months. It seems like most of my friends and family were born in the spring, so it wasn't a big shock to me that Gina's Designs celebrates a birthday this month too.

I knew I wanted bright primary colors for this project, so I began by putting a layer of gesso on all my pieces to really make the colors pop. I then sponged light blue for the sky and white for clouds onto the big tag.

I painted the airplane bright red. 

Once it was dry, I embellished it with Liquid Pearls and Pico Embellishers.

I painted the sun bright yellow and gave it a few spritzes of irRESISTible spray in neon yellow.

For the Happy Birthday piece, I began by painting it a medium blue. Once the paint had dried, I went over it again with StazOn Studio Glaze in a matching blue to give it some shine.

All that was left to do was assemble my project, and I was done!

'Til next week, I wish you all happy crafting!

A Layout by Shanna

Good morning everyone, Shanna here. I have a special layout that I made for Gina's Designs. More importantly I made it for my mom.

Of course having two grandbabies she had to share the love equally. I made a layout of my daughter for my mom for Mother's Day so it is only fair to equal it out and make her one of Avery.

I so love the Pink Paislee papers I used and the amazing chipboard pieces that really helped make this layout pop!
