Hi everyone and welcome, the theme for this month at Dusty Attic's ATC Challenge is "ART DECO" I found this theme hard as it is not so commonly known what Art Deco is and then I remembered that I had some old G45 papers stashed away and I thought a little memory of Madonna and her Vogue song...'They know what it's all about'! .

 

Think 1920's to the 1940's geometric and glamour. Art Deco (/ˌɑrt ˈdɛkoʊ/), or Deco, is an influential visual arts design style which first appeared in France during the 1920s, flourished internationally during the 30s and 40s, then waned in the post-World War II era.[1] It is an eclectic style that combines traditional craft motifs with Machine Age imagery and materials. The style is often characterized by rich colors, bold geometric shapes, and lavish ornamentation.

 During its heyday Art Deco represented luxury, glamour and exuberance...so on that note here is my  May Dusty Attic 'Art Deco' ATC!

 

 

See you soon and thanks for dropping by. G!

 

Rusty Old Circus!

Hello there! Today I'm sharing my Dusty Attic 'Morrocan' inspired ATC....'Enjoy'. I always try to look a little 'left of centre' when I create and with this theme I couldn't help but be inspired by the ornate details in the two Dusty Attic frames #4 and #1 and by the magic of elephants and the circus.

ATC Frame #1

My ATC is made up of several layers ~ The base Frame layers are coated with rusting powder and the base picture and top frame are from Glitz.

On that note, as my ATc says....'Enjoy' the blog!

Rivalry or Love?

Hello and welcome, Today I'm sharing a layout created for 'Dusty Attic'.

The title  is "Evidence of True love". This is a rarity...my 3 children in a beautiful photograph together. Here in Melbourne we have just finished school holidays and my children were fighting 90% of the time except for this day......I think the warning of losing Wii, X box and ipods for 2 weeks meant that they were semi angels for this photo shoot. Now I have proof they really do love each other!

I have also used the stunning Mixed media papers from 7Dots Studio and stickers, Prima Journal Tags and flowers

Industrial Steampunk

Hi there! Today I wanted to share with you how amazing  this was and how extremely fortunate I was to be able take some Finnabair classes and learn some creative new techniques. Finnabair's classes certainly put me out of my comfort zone but a zone I honestly loved and will continue to explore and create within. Firstly I'm going to share my Journal covers. I really love the renaissance period and decided as this was going to be my personnal journal that this was my inspiration.........

"Rennaissance Steampunk"

WOW.... how amazing and stunning does all this Dusty Attic Chipboard look!

I also participated in the Finnabair "Tea for two" layout class and combined my own background paper style with Finnabair's mixed media metal signature. It was aptly called 'tea for 2" because we used tea bags to colour and splatter the chipboard and background.

Lion Heart!

Hi there everyone,  today I'm here to share my Dusty Attic February 'Love' ATC.

I wanted to do a different take on the 'Romance and Love' theme and as I watched the Wizard of Oz last week with my children I kept thinking of the Tin Man and the Lion....Yep! I muddled the two up a little and came up with my ATC.

Lighthearted!
