Prima: Altered Poppy Album

A little while back I shared a little peek at an altered Donna Downey Poppy album. 
It was also one of my Prima CHA projects that I sent over for the show.


The cover already came printed with pretty poppies which I did subdue a little with a wash of Ranger Multi Medium and Gesso.  
Some masking was added over the top.  I used one of the new Prima Masks with Tattered Angels Glimmer Mists - Turquoise Blue, Bubblegum Pink and Sun Sisters. 

Ranger Gesso was used to alter the felt flowers and Acrylic Paint Dabber for the Metal 'Love' Trinket.  Turquoise Blue Glimmer Mist was added over the top as well as to the edges of the journal note peeking out from under the photo.


Now for a little look inside


The canvas pages are double thickness with a machine stitched edged.  They are durable and provide the perfect foundation for mediums.

The masked theme was continued throughout the pages of the album.


Resist Canvas elements feature and 12 x 12  Donna Downey canvas page that features poppies.  
Poppies were hand cut and feature as embellishments for some of the pages.


White Cardstock was coloured with Ingvild Bolme's 'Rose Bud'
Quick Dry Fluid Chalk Ink.


An assortment of gorgeous blooms feature:
Lucerne, Camille, Vinetta, Perle Bebe, Charme Roses and Essential Petals


Pankita Rose, Tivona and Primmers

Along with Felt


Bows and assorted flowers 
With Donna Downey Scuplture Flowers


 And  type set words from Fairy Belle Alphabet Stickers create the sentiments.


I had so much fun putting this together. 
Thanks so much for peeking!
