First Ride

This polka dot paper is perfect to add your own color. I gesso the paper and draw the big heart with Gelatos from Faber Castell. i applied three colors and they are easily to blend together with water. 

Paper flowers from Prima and Petaloo are both my favourite. They have nice flower shapes and details in color shading. 

Pure Joy

This is another layout I create the background to match the photo color purple. I gesso the paper, stencil it and spray on top to create layers.

Here are the close-ups of different layers. I used thick gesso onto stencil as i run out of modelling paste. Add some twine and spray some darker purple spots.

I love this burlap chipboard letter, you can easily apply color on it to keep the consistency with the rest of the page. I simply used acrylic and my finger!

Life Reveals Your Beauty

This is the mix-media layout and this is what I learnt from Prima. You can check out their blog and you will be amazed for sure. Their design team is full of creativity and they turns everything into art!

The dimension of the flowers are good for layering. I apply gesso on flower to soften the color.

i distress the paper edge and ink the edge. Choose some embellishments with light color so it will be easy match.

More close-ups of this layout. We will hold again the crop session at DB in Sep due to summer holiday. Come join us and stay turned!.

HKMC's Kit Club Oct 2013

Hi,
It's time to share Oct's kit club from HK Memory Chest!
This month's paper are from My mind's Eye - Find Your Wings and Fly  - Up and Away collection, its  a joyful mix of vintage ephemera and trendy patters, together with the coordinated embellishments inside the kit, believe you will enjoy creating!

Layout - Look Up and Fly

Love these papers a lot, especially this one. it seems many layers but actually its just one piece of paper. because of this, what i did is just adding some pieces of small paper to make up layers,  stick photos on, cut out hot air balloons, a tag and connect them with enamel dots!

 and yes, flowers! this is flower from Pateloo! How cute !

Layout - Date in Roma

 In this layout, i used Sizzix - Prima's Memphis die, the flower is quite big and i was thinking where i can use it for a while. Now its time and place for it!

Thanks for stopping by!

Make a Wish, My Beautiful Girl!

Prima Marketing is always my favourite brand in scrapbooking. Today I would like to share 1 layout using Prima's flowers and stamp.

 The background is just a white solid carstock and I have gesso it, color it and paint it with Kaiser color and moudling pastes for patterns. Then I used Donna Downey's Peonies foam stamp to create the flower background. I love this stamp a lot as it is big, you can color it in different color,  and also since it is a foam stamp you can it in a good price.

 Love these Prima flowers, any size, any color, any style they are just pefect!

These are cut outs from Prima Doodle Dux paper, they are very cute!

thanks for stopping by!
