For Father Collection from Pion *CT Flying Unicorn*

Hi everyone and welcome to my blog. Today I have some layouts and cards that I have created with the gorgeous From Father Collection from Pion, available at Flying Unicorn store. I love this collection to bits as there are sheets that are just pieces to fussy cut out to embellish your creations.

 My first layout is titled So Proud, and is two of my grandsons this year. I have used the color palette from The Color Room for this week. The cute little tags and butterflies are fussy cut from the papers. I did lots of distressing with the Prima Distress tool, added some Dusty Attic Chippys and inked with the Prima dark brown in…all available in the store too!

I added some ZVA crystals to the butterflies and the chippy is just painted with Distress Crackle Paint.

My next layout is titled Christine and this is a photo of my mom when she was about 17. It is very faded but I love it as I do not have many photos of her when she was young. I have used this weeks palette from CSI. I did lots of distressing again with the Prima tool and some masking with gesso in the background.

The corner scrolls and chicken wire are from Dusty Attic and I have painted them white first with dabber paint and than I added some glimmer mists and distress stain to them. All available in the store.

Thank you for Being You tag. The Pion collections come with these sheets that are loaded with tags, stamps, postcards etc…and they are so much fun to create with and the projects just seem to make themselves. This tag is all fussy cut items from that collection, the only thing I added was a bow and some liquid pearls to finish it off.

For the Happy Fathers Day card I first created a tag from the collection and than I added it to the card with another fussy cut strip from the paper. I tucked in some corrugated board and added some twine, a bow and flower, and some liquid pearls.

Well that is it for today. Alda has loaded up the store this week with so many new goodies and she said she has boxes arriving daily!  I hope that you all have a fantastic weekend! Feel free to leave me some scrappy love comments, I love reading them ...take care and happy scrapping J
