''Memories Captured'' - DT layout for 49 and Market May Inspiration Part 1

 

Hello and welcome back my friends!

Today, I am back on 49 and Market blog with my first post for May. This time I used the beautiful Old School Mini collection and I have to admit that I haven’t used it many times yet. But now I realize how beautifully these papers match with all kinds of photos and I can’t wait to do another project with these papers.

For my background, I used the ”High Schools” sheet with its grunginess background and started by priming the paper with clear gesso. When the gesso was dried, I added in some texture with Finnabair paper paste and a stencil and then I heat embossed the pattern with a Lindy’s EP in Bratwurst Brown color. Continued with a second stencil and graphite paste this time to create a second layer of pastes. Then, I made a randomly stamping with the ”Pascale’s Rations ” and ”1787 Stamp Set by Pascale Bernard”.

The resin elements were colored with Finnabair Sparks acrylic paint in Magical Pond and randomly applied Bronze Age wax. The chipboard from the archival board Memory Captured was also painted with the Finnabair Sparks Raven Black and Rustic Brown acrylic paints.

 Next, I added in some Mitform Castings and several gorgeous flowers from several sets like Stargazers, Country Blooms, Garden seeds, and Seaside Blooms sets in blue, yellow, and green tones. Then it was the fun part, to arrange all the elements around my photo by making several layers with all of them.

To finish, I added art stones, glass beads along with glitter for more shine.

''Be Your Own Author'' - DT layout with ***VIDEO TUTORIAL*** for Mixed Media Place Blog

Hello dear friends and welcome on the blog today!

I hope you and your families are healthy and strong. Today, I'm up on the Mixed Media Place blog with my latest layout and I have also prepared a step by step Video Tutorial. My layout is featuring the 7 Dots Studio ''Writer's Block'' collection and lots of Finnabair mixed media products.

 

You can watch my creative process in my video below!

 

For my background, I choose to use two papers the ''Inkwell'' and the ''Torn''. I made a layer with the second one on the bottom of the first and distressed all the edges. Just because I wanted to keep the background simple I didn't used many mixed media techniques. I only applied Finnabair Paper paste through the ''Ornate Lace'' stencil and then, I randomly stamped on the background using the ''Gothic Book'' stamp with a black archival ink.

Then, I painted all the resin elements and chipboard with Finnabair Patina Effect paste. When everything was dried I arranged them around my photo and made several layers with flowers and metal embellishments from Finnabair and Mitform Castings.

To finish the layout, I added glass beads and glitter with soft matte gel along with some glitter for more shine.

''Angelic'' - DT layout with ***VIDEO TUTORIAL*** for Mixed Media Place Blog

Hello friends!

Today, I'm up on the Mixed Media Place blog and I would like to show you my latest layout with a step by step Video Tutorial. As usual, I made a layout with lots of Finnabair mixed media products and 7 Dots Studio papers.

You can watch my creative process in my video below!

 

For my background, I used the Frosted paper from the Northern Lights collection. I started by applying clear gesso and then I made some stenciling work with the Iris Tapestry stencil and an icing paste in Old Silver. Then, I made a little stamping and added color with Lindy's Stamp Gang sprays.

 Continued by priming with black gesso the moulds and sprayed them with Lindy's sprays. When dried, I gently applied wax in Mystic Turquoise.

 I heat embossed the Dusty Attic chipboard with Lindy's EP and again I applied wax in Royal Robes.

After I glued everything down and made my composition I added glass beads and glitter with soft matte gel.

''Adore'' - DT layout for Mixed Media Place January Challenge

Hello dear friends!

Today, I'm up on the Mixed Media Place blog with a new layout layout based on our beautiful January moodboard. The wintery photos with their soft colors inspired me to create a page in pink, beige and brown tones using some metal embellishments and chipboards.

For my layout I used the Brain Freeze paper from the 7 Dots Studio Cotton Candy Dreams collection.

 I created the background using Finnabair products, like clear gesso, icing paste, stamps and Lindy's Gang spray.

 

I made my composition with Dusty Attic chipboard, metal embellishments and Prima Marketing flowers.

At last I added glass beads and glitter for more shine.
