Personalised Nursery Letters

Posted on | Saturday, June 30, 2012 | 1 Comment

Materials You Will Need:
Products I used:

• Dusty Curls Alphabet (DA0468) from the Dusty Attic
• Jo Sonjas White Paint
• Peter Rabbit wrapping paper (paper of your choice)

Step 1.
I have painted the Dusty Curls Alphabet with a plain white paint firstly. (Refer to previous intricate details tutorial – this is how I almost always do the first layer).

Step 2.
Simply some basic paper toll here, or fussy cutting as I hear it being referred to of late; cut out roughly 3 of the same design from the paper, then when you have a minute to sit down (I usually do in front of the TV) cut to the edge of the picture, but leaving off legs, arms etc as you go higher. Then using whatever way you prefer to add dimention to the layers, build them up. I use helmars dimentional glue most of the time.

Step 3
Place the cut outs randomly over or under the letters.

A page of my little cowboy when he turned 2!!! I love the Dusty Curls Alphabet for his pages, they just suit perfectly! I actually had the letter "I" next to the H but it went walk about at some point? I have used pinecone ink and a rose stamp then finished off with glossy accents.
Next piece of Fabulous DA is the new release Wagon Wheels - LOVE it !!! Again using pinecone ink and a screw brad for the centre.

I have used a very old range of paper from K & Co which is just my favourite of all time (as far as boy papers go ;) Anyone who knows me, will know that I am definitely a "girl" mum!!!
