Xoxoxo (for Prima PPP and BAP October)

 
Here is my new layout, inspired by, and created for Prima Product Pick and Build-A-Page challenges for October
The PPP colors are just divine. Purple and gold are so elegant together.
 
I also loved the BAP sketch immediately, because it gave me the idea of using the lovely resist canvas I had in my stash for sometime now.
 
I decided to combine the challenges with eachother.
 

 
I used these elements from the sketch: the composition with stripes below and leaves. I used three pictures on top of eachother to use the 3 squares from the composition. And I placed the title on the place as shown in the sketch.
 
I started with cutting the resist canvas, then stamped it with a clear stamp and stazon, and wet them with water and a spray bottle. Then I used color bloom sprays with a brush to give the canvas color. Then spraying water again so the ink would spread. After drying I glued the canvas on the patterned paper.
 
Next step I used a stencil with light paste mixed with mica powder and glitter.
 
When light paste was dry, I started building my page with lovely flowers, doily dies, chipboard pieces, golden metal leaves and more. After finishing the page I splattered some white ink. Last but not least my ultime favorite: ultra fine glitter ( I call it fairy dust, because they intend to glitter through the air of my scraproom and it looks like fairy dust...)

Mixed media layout 'Angel' (with video tutorial)

 
I created this layout for the Finnabair creative team call 2016
I was so thrilled when the announcement was made, I really wanted to think this application through and come up with something special.
I hope you will enjoy my page.
 
As an extra I made a video too!
 
 
This page was very fun to do.
I used some different techniques this time, I loved the effect of texture powder mixed with black gesso, applied on the page with a stencil. I also painted the art pebbles with black gesso, never done that before, but the effect is very nice. I am sending my application for the creative team call tonight. I am so excited and oh yes, nervous too!





 
My inspiration for this color scheme came from Lindy's Stamp Gang Color challenge October 2016
Just love these colors together.
It was a challenge for me to create a page with these popping colors, that still expressed gentleness and delicateness.
