Of course this should have been posted last Saturday, however, it is already late posting due to my commitments over the weekend. As promised, I try to post layouts every Saturday and try to share some tips on how I made the layout. Maybe someday, I will have the chance to take a picture of the work in progress layout. This layout has several elements I love, the misting and masking, stamping and embossing, use of Bedazzles, use of Tim Holtz die cuts, which suits perfectly because this is a travel layout. The Old Jalopy die cut was sent by Isabel from Yellow Violet House along with the die I ordered from her. I had to dress up the die cut to give it dimension.
My creative process:
1. Using Prima mask and Studio Calico Mister Huey Mist, I created the swirl background.
2. Stamp TH stamp and embossed with a white embossing powder.
3. Stamp TH script stamp using Distress Ink Pad.
4. Mat the photo with a patterned paper.
5. Tear a strip of paper for the background.
6. Punch a strip of paper for the border.
7. Randomly apply two colors of perfect pearls using embossing ink.
8. Die cut fence shape and apply distress ink and randomly apply distress embossing powder
9. Apply glossy or sepia accents randomly to serve as adhesive and sprinkle bedazzles on the glossy accents.
10. Adhere lace.
