Chillin' out

 Hello Happy Scrappers 

Hope you had a wonderful week. 

Today I am sharing a layout I created of my family Chillin' on beach and exploring. 
What more could you ask for ? Having the beach and able to explore. What an adventure.

Here is the process: 

I used #pebeobindex to primer and seal the paper

I then added Texture paste through a stencil

Once the paste was dry, I spritzed the paper with a little water and added 

#magicals Bachelor Button Blue. I added more water to dilute the colour a 

a little  more and spread it around the stencilling. 

Once this was dry I splattered white paint on the page.

While the page was drying I painted my home made resins with Gesso and then inks.
I used an embossing pen to highlight the raised areas of the resins and flowers and 
embossed them. I stamped some images and heat embossed them and fussy cut them.

I then placed my embellishments on my page to work out the best layout and what 
embellishments I wanted to use.

Once I was happy with my layout, I adhered my embellishments and photo. 

I added a few speckles of brown ink to finish off. 

Here are a few closeups

I was inspired by the August challenge by #Morethanwords

with the sketch and word inspiration "Chill out"

Prom Night Memories

Hello happy Scrappers

Welcome if you are joining me for the first time, and to my regular visitors
welcome back and I am very happy to see you back again.

Today I am sharing my Layout I created with the photos of my eldest sons'
prom nights. Yip, he went to two and was Stylin'

I started with Stamping with black ink through a stencil. I then sealed the page with
#Liquitex clear Gesso. I added texture paste coloured with #infusions Raspberry
through a stencil and left to dry.

In the mean time I die cut some cardstock and looked though my homemade

clay resins.

I matted my photos and placed them on my page to see how I wanted my layout.

I painted the Die cuts and clay embellishments with black #gesso

I went through my flower stash to find the right flowers and other floral

embellishments to use.

I mixed #infusions with white gesso and dry brushed the black resins and some 

embellishments. I used embossing powder randomly on the resins. 

I used #nuvo expanding mouse and rubbed some randomly on some of the 

embellishments and resins. 

I used the same effect on the letters for PROM.

I adhered everything to the page with my trusty #bostik  All purpose clear glue.

Here are some close ups: 

I absolutely enjoyed creating this layout and love the colours.

Thank you for popping by and I hope you enjoyed the post.

Take care and hope to see you soon
