Pioneer Settlement Wedding


I’m loving the new range of chipboards (Dusty Attic) in stock and found some time to do another page featuring them. I've used them here on a wedding page, combining them with some Jenny Bowlin vintage papers to complete the feel of old world. Photograph by Michael Carter Photography.

Materials used: Jenny Bowlin papers, Dusty Attic Lamp Post and vine scroll chipboard, textured card, Glim Glam and paper flowers from stash.

I have distressed the card and papers using a Bella distresser, then inked the edges for a vintage look. Some stitching was added around the layers of papers for some added texture and the flowers, which were black and white originally, have been inked to color match and age them. I painted one side of the black inked (SEI chalk pad) lamp post with gold Glim Glam for a highlight and bit of sparkle.
