Imagination

 

Hello everyone.

I am sharing a new layout as Design Team member 

for 13arts with you all today ~ a bold, dramatic layout 

with the QUEEN OF THE NIGHT.

I prepared the background of my layout by 

stenciling with a combination of black gesso 

and gel medium.

I added black glitter to the mixture to give it texture 

and a sparkle and then stenciled around my main composition.

I then added ephemera and velum from the collection, 

as well as velum from the ROSE IN LOVE collection, 

layering them with flowers around my photograph.

I added stamping onto the edges of my layout.

Splashes of black gesso and white ink completed my layout.

I hope that you like this layout and are inspired to 

create one of your own using these beautiful products.

Bloom and grow

Hello creative friends.

I am sharing a new layout with you all today as 

Brand Ambassador for Penelope Dee using the 

gorgeous new GARDENIA collection.

Beautiful, soft pastel tones make up this collection and 

is perfect for any photograph, especially a romantic one.

I cut papers and layered them with cards cut from 

the collection, cutting elements from the cut-out sheet 

to frame my photograph.

I sprayed chipboard embellishments with 

Speckled Egg Distress Oxide to cover the engraved 

sections of the chipboards and then 

wiped off the excess oxide.

I hope that this layout has inspired you.

Capture

Hello creative friends

I am sharing a grungy layout with you all today 

as Design Team member for 2Craft Chipboard featuring 

some of the beautiful chipboards in their collection as well as 

papers and embellishments from 13arts' Mr Handsome collection.

I prepared the chipboard pieces by first painting them 

with brown paint.  I then added blue and gold metallic 

flakes to the corner pieces and lightly rubbed the frames with gold wax.

The bulb and title were painted with gold paint.

I added stamping around my layout as well.

Once I had added everything to my layout,

I combined gold ink and gel medium together 

and stenciled onto my layout, dragging the product 

with a spatula around my main composition 

as well as along the edges of my layout.

Once the product was dry, I added Copper Glitter Ink

on top of the gold as well as onto the bulb and title.

I hope that this layout has inspired you to create your own.

Magical

 

Hello again creative friends.

I am sharing a new layout as Design Team 

member for 2Crafty Chipboard with you all 

today using papers and embellishments from 

13arts' AURORA collection.

Beautiful pinks, purples and greens make up 

this collection which is perfect for a magical layout.

I prepared the background of my layout by stenciling 

with modeling paste and a small star stencil 

around my main composition.

I painted my chipboard pieces in gold, 

amethyst and a combination of both.

Splashes of diluted gold paint as well as white ink

completed my layout.

I hope that this layout has inspired you.

My heart is blooming

 

Hello creative friends.

I am sharing my new Design Team layout for 13arts

using the beautiful MAGNOLIA DREAMS collection.

We will be in our Spring in just over a month so

I decided to create a romantic, floral

layout for that "Spring feeling" and the

yellow and white daisies are perfect

for that.

I stenciled onto my layout using white modeling paste.

I added Amber Color Glow to white modeling paste 

to stencil around my main composition.

Yellow watercolour paint was lightly added 

onto the white stenciling to bring in some colour.

I cut elements from the velum page, the 

cut-out sheet to frame my photograph as well 

as ephemera embellishments.

I hope that this layout has inspired you.
