Love U2


Hi!!
Sandra here again sharing with you my third layout using the fun SCD Country Happiness Kit.
For this background I lightly added some brown and olive green ink with a dry dauber and lightly rubbed the kraft with it.

I blended some tea green and olive gelatos (not contained in the kit) on my work sheet and sprayed with some water - you could used some watercolour paints in place



Grabbing some crumpled up cling film I picked up the gelato and lighted dabbed the layout with it.



I also randomly stamped the background using a Kaisercraft bubblewrap stamp.


Isn't this a yummy looking concoction??


For this layout I had a bit of fun and experimented. :)

It is Clear Impasto mixed with  the Bronze Beck Beattie Tinby Design Metallic Melts that comes with the kit.
I then simply used it on a couple of old stencils (not in the kit)...   you could use any you have at home






Carefully lifted it off and then gently used a heat gun to start melting those Tinby Designs Metallic Melts in the impasto.

It is hard to photograph the effects.. but the butterfly and leaves have a lovely sheen from the Metallic Melts.
For this layout I went to town fussy cutting every single flower that was left on the patterned Adorn-It papers, altered the chipboard with the ArtDeco Chalky Finish Paint (with a touch of brown ink on the edges)  and I then assembled my layout.









I hope you try the technique using the Impasto, Melts and Stencils.
If you do, please share your results with us on the SCD Facebook page!

Love at First Sight

Hello There!
Sandra here again with my third and last layout using the gorgeous Hello Kit.
As with the other layouts I used  a Page Drafts sketch for my layout
this time I used sketch number 23_1

I used the IZINK with impasto to create the background.
The IZINK turned a gorgeous yellow when I mixed it with the clear impasto...




I had fun creating my own flower and leaves with left over cardstock and paper (and I still have plenty of sheets left!!)
and making a heart with the paper twine (that stuff is seriously cool!)
playing with a border punch, sequins and yep, that super fun stamp set.

This kit has been so much fun!
And as you can see by what Heather, Renee and Beck have created there are so many different ways to be inspired by it!

Check out the details here if you are interested in purchasing the kit.
