A layout for Louise's challenge

 Hi there

Today I am sharing a layout I created for Louise's challenge.

The details of the challenges are here.

The theme for September is Paints & Inks and Louise's challenge is to creates something vintage, soooo here is what I created.




You can see the video here.

All of the papers used for this layout are from the Uniquely Creative Gums & Roses range.

All of the edges have been distressed using my Prima distressing tool and Vintage Photo Distress Ink.

I have used paint through a stencil and stamping with StaZon Jet black ink for the background. 

I have used two sheets of Rose Bud Borders for the background, one of them I fussy cut the flower edges out and attached them to the full sheet using foam tape/squares

I cut strips of paper from Floral Tags & Titles and Everyday moments in varying widths and lengths and distressed the edges. These were then attached in a line across the layouts so they were staggered and overlapping.

The photo, of two of my sisters and I, was matted on black cardstock and attached to the layout with a layer of foam under it.

The title was printed on some of the patterned paper, cut out using my Sizzix Hearts die and attached using foam.

Here are a couple of closeups.



I hope you have enjoyed reading about my layout today.

Check out the video and see how easily this page came together.

Can't wait to see your entries into the September challenges.

Happy Scrapping

September Challenge reveal - All about Paints and Ink


And suddenly it was September!!  

Hello crafty friends, welcome to a new month of challenges, playing with paint and inks this month.  Have fun with these challenges and I look forward to seeing your take on them in our albums.


Julie here to share my September challenge with you.

Soooo paint and ink month. Yipee

My challenge for you is to alter the background of your project using paint.

I have used paint to colour the Texture Paste I have put through a stencil on the white cardstock background for this challenge

I have used the Uniquely Creative Gums & Roses papers. I am in love I must admit, they are so pretty.

 Hi Everyone, Louise here....

For the September challenge, I'd like to see you create something with a "Vintage" theme - which should include paints/inks.


Here is my vintage inspiration

"Father"




See the video below. 



This layout features:



I love to use products in different ways then they are intended so I've used the Nuvo drops like a paste and applied them through a stencil.

As the liquid was thinner than normal paste, I washed the stencil between applications.
It dries with a lovely matte finish and almost looks like it's embossed on the background.

Thanks for visiting.
Happy scrapping.
