Project - Sister Mine by Anna-Karin posted 01/30/12 at 01:01 PM Galleries: Scrapbooking, Stamping This layout is for CSI:Color, Stories, Inspiration challenge 4, http://csicolorstoriesinspiration.ning.com/ [csicolorstoriesinspiration.ning.com] I loved this week’s combo and the inspiration piece is so much fun. From the evidence I used: wet medium, tulle, rhinestones. And from the testimony: write something unexpected about your picture, inspiration word 'wonder'. For the topic and journaling of the layout I took inspiration from the story aspect of the challenge to journal about something unexpected about the photo. The photo of me and my sisters was taken at a gorge where parts of one of our favourite movies when we were children were recorded. I loved the book too and can clearly remember when I walked to the library on my own to go and borrow it. The book is Ronja Rövardotter (Ronia the Robbers Daugther) by Astrid Lindgren. We sisters used a lot of phrases from the book, the title being one of them. The title is hard to translate, it is something in the line of 'sister mine', a loving way of saying 'my sister'. The background was inspired by the topic of my layout and by the inspiration piece to use wet mediums. First I stamped a script stamp using Broken China here and there. Then an alphabet background stamp was clear embossed three times, partly overlapping the script stamp (the clear embossed letters trapped the script underneath. A butterfly was clear embossed in the lefthand corner. I had to mix three different colours Distress Ink reinkers to get the right shade of golden yellow for the mist (one dropper full of Wild Honey, four small drops of Rusty Hinge and two small drops of Vintage Photo). There is Perfect Pearls in the mist too, The clear embossed parts resist the mist creating a cool effect. The story takes place in a forest and they live in an old fort, so I used some stamps to fit with that, as well as some book related stamps. I was happy to find a a map of the province where the photo was taken. I misted it a bit with Tumbled Glass reinker. I also added some other definitions from the same dictionary. The photo was layered on another piece of dictionary paper, two sheets of old book pages (first distressed with mists), tulle and another piece of misted script paper.
