The Scrapper's Helper

This is a mixed media layout for pics from our 2014 cruise.  I had a lot of fun and frustration with this layout but I learned a lot.  Mainly, that I tend to over-do-it.  :)  That is something that I am working on.  I use ink and mists and a stencil and a mask and some more ink.  In the middle of the video, I come on and talk a little about how I feel about the layout and what I'm gonna do about it.  The layout turns out fine though.  However, I really think that it actually looks better in person. Hope you Enjoy!
