I found these 12 inch Doily’s at Jewel and bought them. I got a dozen for $2.00 I love when things are white because I can change the color with any of the Distress Ink Pads. ONE TIP: IF you DO use Distress Inks don’t adhere anything to the Doily until it’s completely dried. Distress Inks are water based and nothing will stick until dried.
The how-to instructions are below the Supply list. SUPPLIES: Paper: 12 Inch Doily, White (from Jewel) The Paper Studio, Cosmo Foliage Purple paper from Apple Collection
Cricut Expression Fabulous Finds Cricut Cartridge Paper Frills, White (Hobby Lobby) Judi Kins, Lavender Twinkle Embossing Powder Embossing ink pad Grungeboard Elements Distress Ink: Peeled Paint and Dusty Concord White Acrylic Paint Fake Flowers Hot Glue Gun Chipboard by Making Memories Gems Butterfly from the Dollar Tree Glossy Accents
First, I started by coloring the Doily with Distress Ink Dusty Concord. Then I cut out 2 circles. 1 in each paper. I used my paper cutter to cut out a section of the green paper (The Paper Studio, Cosmo Foliage) and added it to the purple paper circle.
Then I added the Paper Frills that I heat embossed with Glittery Embossing Powder.
I cut out the photo and put it in place without adhering it to the page to see how I should arrange the Grungeboard Flourishes. I painted them white with Acrylic Paint then added Peeled Paint Distress Ink to it. I added some gems to them to finish it off.
I adhered the photo then added the butterfly that I got from the Dollar Tree. $1.00 for 3 of them. The only way to attach it, that I’ve found, is a hot glue gun. I also added a fake flower from the Hobby Lobby. I used a hot glue gun for that as well.
Lastly, was the Chipboard letters. I painted them white and added Dusty Concord Distress Ink to them. I attached them with Glossy Accents. Oh, and I added some gems to the Doily.
