Love Art by Ana Paula

Hello. Ana Paula here today to show you 2 projects made with the pretty papers from 7Dots Studio.

The first one is a layout in a frame made with much love for a friend of mine on her birthday!

She always loved a scrapbooking layout of mine where I used wings so…
I decided to present her with a winged page.

Something that is like her: full of life, beauty and joy!

As I wanted to make her a surprise,
I asked for her daughter some pictures and during the birthday party I gave her the frame.

I was very happy for give her something she liked a lot and I created it with  so much love .

This frame was made using the pretty papers from Messy Head collection.
The digital wings were printed on the ” Love Letter” paper in different sizes.
Then I cut out them and applied creating layers using the foam tape and painted them with watercolor paint.

The entire layout were made using 7Dots papers and shaded with watercolor paint to give depth and almost a 3D effect.

Papers used:

Love Letter -Messy Head collection
