Louise December Mixed Media Inspiration - 12x12 Layout + process video

 


Hi Crafters


Louise with you today sharing a little bit of mixed media love. 


I adore the Frosted Sugar Powder and wanted to explore some of it's uses.

So I decided to combine it with Multi Medium and  Colour Blast Shimmer Dust Peacock.

I trialed it through a stencil but couldn't get the desired effect so I ended up with a freestyle background.

I've teamed this with Fancy Pants paper and Fancy Pants tags

I like to have some form of border on my layouts so Washi tape was perfect for this.

To finish I added some Simple Stories Embellishments a bit of Gold splatter and some Sequins.


You can check out the process video here:



Happy Scrapping.

December Challenges



We have come to the last set of challenges for 2020, and what a year it's been!  Lucky we have pretty paper and crafting to keep us sane! 

I hope you enjoy our last 2 challenge, and a huge thank you to everyone that joined in with all our challenges, games, and cyber crops throughout the year.
Thank you for your continuing support of my little shop, allowing me to keep my doors open during this very difficult year.
I'm so very grateful to you all.

Good Morning

December already...this month will fly by and it will be the end of the year already. I guess some of us can't wait and some of us are not in a hurry to see another year go by.

I hope you find some time to do some scrapbooking and enter this month's challenges.

My challenge for you this month is to use three or more photos on your layout. This should not be too hard with all of the social functions we have this month. The subject can be anything. I find that a lot of my multi-photo layouts are holiday layouts...not that we have had many of those this year.

This layout has four photos of my Grand-Daughter which were taken one evening when we were just sitting around the kitchen table.


I have used Studio 73's Mistique NightWind paper range on this layout

There are lots of interesting things on this layout. Texture/Modelling Paste, chipboard, Dimensional Magic, acrylic paints, Frosted Sugar Powder, and sprays.



Here are links to the products I have used

Studio 73 – Mistique Nightwind – Floriana


Studio 73 – Mistique Nightwind – Enchanted

 

Linen Cardstock – Kookaburra

 

Memory Maze chipboard – You Stole My Heart 

 

Kaisercraft Paint – Dusty Pink


Dusty Attic String Frame Small Chipboard

 

Dress My Craft Frosted Sugar Powder

Till next time

Stay safe

Hi Crafters

Louise here. 

Sharing my December inspiration layout: "Documented"



My challenge for you this month is to use any form of "Splatters" on your layout.

I've used the gorgeous Simple Stories Life in Color Collection

I just love wood grain paper.

The background is quite dark so I added some paste

To finish I've mixed white gesso with water and added lots of splatters.

Here is the process video:


Can't wait to see your creations.
