Dusty Attic - September mood board entry


I really liked the colours of the Dusty Attic September mood board, and I felt that they really suited this photo of my husband's mountain bike.   www.dustyattic.com.au

I started with some texture paste, which I sprayed with various mists, I think I used about five different colours. 



The Dusty Attic Cog Cluster and Cogs#1 chipboard pieces were perfect for the layout.  I coloured them with two shades of brown ink, and smudged on a touch of metallic gilders paste.  


I supplemented the cogs with some metal washers that I 'rescued' from my husband's shed. I also added a few metal brads.



I used the Dusty Attic Blueprint Explore for the title. This piece I left raw so that it stood out on the page. My finishing touches included die cuts, jute cord and hessian scraps.
