Look Around – Layout by Audrey Underwood

Hello once again.
I was lucky enough to attend a scrapbooking retreat recently here in West Australia, with a bunch of like minded ladies who were all great to spend the weekend with. It was about 3 hours drive from Perth and so worth the drive. Apart from being surrounded by creative souls it was held on a fantastic Australian farm with such character and our hosts were so friendly. One of the things we were told we had to see was their car graveyard. Oh boy, it didn’t disappoint.

This layout is of one of my favourite old cars there and 49 and Market’s Vintage Artistry Nature Study was more than the perfect tones to match. Check out the lichen all over this car!! The colour, texture, and surrounding bush match the Collection to a tee!!

I chose beautiful plaid design of Nature Study – Tattered Writings as my base, matted my photo on Spectrum Gardenia Solids – 8 (Black) then Nature Study – Colored Foundations 1. Then built a layered background of various papers, Ephemera, Laser Cut Elements to frame the photo.

The magnifying glass from the Nature Study – Ephemera Bits was a perfect addition to showcase a close-up of the lichen growing on the car.

I used a selection of Nature Study – Laser Cut Mushrooms & Foliage, Ephemera Bits, Laser cut Elements, Chipboard Words, etc to the right of the photo.

To finish off I’ve added Rub-on transfers, including rub-on words, tags tucked here and there, and tabs.
