Mixed Media with Scrapmatts!

Hello there! Here we are in June!! The year is flying by! I hope you are getting some creative time!!

I have been having a bit of fun with mixed media which is simply using a variety of media to create art.. or in our case, our scrapbooking!!

I got a scrap piece of paper and began to use some modelling paste and some fabulous stencils..

Then I covered the whole piece of paper with gesso.. This makes the paper able to hold the wet mediums which I used next..

When that was completely dry I sprayed it with mist..

When that was completely dry I mat this on some black cardstock and then mat that onto my card face..
I added some more stencilling, some mesh, some old die cuts left over from another project, my chipboard pieces which were painted in black gesso , added some flowers and I created a fabulous card!!

These are the Scrapmatts products I have used for my card...

I can never have enough of the cogs, just love them!! Painted with brown paint and dabbed with gesso..

September creating with Lizzy.

Hello there, I hope your day is going well!

I would like to share two layouts I have created using some wonderful SCRAPMATTS products which I will list with a link to the SCRAPMATTS ONLINE STORE.

The first layout is a beachy one. I just love going to the beach and usually take lots of photos which I need to scrap. The photo I have used on my layout is of my daughter exploring the rocks and I have cut it into three for something different.  I have used some lovely SCRAPMATTS chipboard shells which I have left raw..

For some added interest I have also used the fabulous RETRO SQUARES 01 and also some GRASS to the sides of my photos. And my title came from the SCRAPWORDS 24,  I also did a little line of stencilling using the TILE STENCIL along the top of my page... and my layout..

On my second layout that I would like to share with you, I have used some beautiful chipboard and some stencils. I have used the stencils two ways, one way is to use texture paste, and the second way is to just lay your stencil down on your layout and lightly spray with mist.
You can see the two ways I have used the stencils in this close up view of my page.

I have painted my beautiful chipboard with black gesso to make them stand out. I have also used drops of purple kindy glitz to add some sparkle..  And my layout..

Exquisite Beauty.

I will list all the Scrapmatts products I have used on my layout.. I hope you can see them all!
