Mixed Media Wedding Layout & Video Tutorial

Hi! I share with you today a classic black and white wedding page using the new Black Tie affair collection by Bo Bunny. This line is perfect to work using the wedding photos. Let's take a look...

I started applying clear gesso to all the paper then I gave textures with the Lots of Love Stickable stencil and modeling paste. Once dry I gave white paint splatters to add more textures.

I made a lot of fussy cutting for this page, I cut out the mat behind my photo from one of the papers also the flowers and the hearts.

Before I placed all the flowers I adhered a piece of cheesecloth it gave layers and textured to all the paper flowers.

I adhered some swirls glaze jewels, a few Tuxedo brads and in the center of each flower a jewel that it make the flowers look delicate, love the effect.

Finally I made the "US' with Alphabet Punch Board by We R Memory Keepers and adhered the "Pure Magic" die cut.

Shabby Chic cards

Hello! I hope you had a great weekend! Today I have a pair of Shabby Chic cards to share with you. I made them with the Creative Embellishments chipboards & products. Let's take a look...

I started  cutting two 4 1/4″  x  5 1/2″ pieces of papers from the For get me Know collection by Lemoncraft and distressed all the edges .  I prepared all the chipboard applying a coat of gesso.  Next, I painted with white acrylic paint one of the Braided Frames.

I also took the Bows chipboard and painted with the white acrylic paint. I framed the  image with the Braided chipboard then I adhered the frame and bow to the paper.

I added some flowers, cheesecloth and art stones to create textures.

I painted a pair of Layered Wings with acrylic paint then adhered them to the center of the card. I added a doily and circular floral paper to create layers. Next I painted the Joy word from the Christmas Sentiments.

Other Supplies I used:
Forget Me Not collection by Lemoncraft
artstones, metalic acrylic paint- Prima Marketing
cheesecloth

Welcome Spring!

Hello!! I have an Easter page to share with you that I created with the beautiful new Cottontail collection by Bo Bunny. 

I took this beautiful neutral ivory paper from the collection I find it's easier to highlight soft colors if you use a neutral base like I did in this page. I cut from the papers the different images like the adorable eggs, flowers, fence and tag then I adhered them with Sticky Thumb adhesive foam dots to create dimension, and a nice focal point for the right side of this page.

I gave textures and design on the background with a Flower Power Stickable Stencil and white gesso. After it was dry, I traced the shapes of the flowers with gel pens in colors similar to the papers, to make the flowers pop! I placed some mint colored craft grass and some 3D balls for a taste of mixed media, and some extra Easter flavor!

I distressed all the eggs with ink and added a dot of Pearlescents in Butterscotch color in the center of each flower.

I love the simple title I chose here. It's the adorable Happy Easter layered chipboard from the same collection.

Finally,  I added some pearls here and there for the final touch!! I hope you find some inspiration .

Thanks for stopping by...until next time!!

Hugs!

Graphic 45 2018 Brand Ambassador Audition

Hello everyone!  I love creating with paper and one brand that greatly inspires me is Graphic 45 and they're having a design team call to which I'm applying with three projects that I created with different Graphic 45 collections.

If you want to make me happy just give me beautiful papers and a scissor,  and I can sit for hours cutting up images. It's a therapy for me and I did it in the next layout with the beautiful Fairy Dust collection.

I love this purple paper by Graphic 45! It looks to me like a purple sky full of stars and I tried to create textures and layers but at the same time highlight the beautiful paper. For that reason I painted the modeling paste in purple, you will see how easy it is in the video tutorial. You can see closer details in these next photos.

Here's the video tutorial...

My second project was created with the Time to Flourish collection. 
I created this Shabby Chic page some time ago but it still one of my favorites projects. I'm using all the beautiful images that I cut out from the papers to make the composition in this page. 

The Video Tutorial...

My third project is a mini album that I created with one of my favorite collection by Graphic 45 Fashionista. I'm a Fashion Designer so isn't a surprise that I adore this collection right?, the colors, the fabulous images, the designs inspires me so much take a look what I did with a vintage look...

The polka dot paper is from the ABC Primer collection but the rest of the paper, tags, die cuts are from the Fashionista collection. 

I added crackle paste to the cover because I think that the vintage look mixed with the crackle effect look fantastic.

The interior pages are clean and simple, leaving the beautiful papers speaking for themselves, and I wanted them to be the focal point.

Thank you so much for the opportunity to apply and for reviewing my projects.

Easter ATC Tags- Creative Embellishments

Hello there!  I share with you four  ATC Tags that I created using the fabulous Creative Embellishments products. I made them with the theme and colors of Easter. Let’s take a look…

I covered with pattern paper from Echo Park four of the ATC Tags Set 2  then  I distress all the border with the distress tool. I added gesso with a sponge to all the edges and to all the words’ chipboard from the Egg Word set.  I stamped a bunny and a chick from the Simon Says Stamp- Some Bunny and colored them with Prismacolor pencils.

I gave textures with the Heart Bokeh Stencil and Nouvo pink mousse to the ATC tag. I painted with white gesso the Bunny word from the Egg Word Set. next I embossed with black emboss powder.

I also gave textures to this ATC with the Heart Bokeh Stencil and Modeling Paste.  I embossed in black the Eggstra word.

I added a few sequins and Pearlescent frost dots by Bo Bunny.

I hope you have a great day!!! thank you so much for stopping by...until next time!
