Perfect - a mixed media layout process video

I consider this to be a very simple mixed media layout.  I had the idea that I wanted to use up some of the embellishments in this Prima Seashore collection because I am coming to the end of my project. I didn't use a sketch for this layout.  It just kind of came together when I decided to use the pieces from the collection.  I did some stamping and used some spray ink for a quick and easy background.  I used some stickers from the paper collection as embellishments and also created some embellishments by stamping and embossing.  Hope you enjoy this process and are inspired.  Thanks for visiting.

Formal - a mixed media layout process video

It's been a while since I posted this video on YouTube.  I have been really busy lately.  I love the colors in this layout.  I love blue and especially teal. I also just love how this layout turned out.  I had so much fun with the materials that I used on this page.  I worked from a template and you know that I usually don't stick strictly to a sketch when I use one.  However, with this layout I really stuck with the template for the most part.  I use some modeling paste with a stencil and some spray ink.  I color some trim and  die cut some tags.  Lots of pearls add a really nice finish. The part that I am really happy with is the way that I used the silver jump rings to attach the gauze paper tags  to the lace trim.  I hope you are inspired by this layout and enjoy the process. Thanks for visiting.
