October Inspiration with Novita Ferris

 

Hello everyone,

Novita here with you today and I hope you all have a wonderful weekend. 


Today I am up on the Scrapmatts blog and I have a new layout to share with you. 


Here is my mixed media layout...............

"CAPTURED THE MOMENTS"


I created a mixed media background using  some texture paste with Scrapmatts stencil and once this background dried I've added some stamps here and there and then I splatters ink paints randomly.

Here are some close up photos....








Some chipboards I inked with Jet Black and Brown Archival Ink pad and also heat embossed with the Aged Bronze Embossing Enamel powder. 

While they were drying I started embellishing my layout until I was happy with the finished page. For finall touch I added some Henna Mica Flake and made some splatter with white gesso that I mixed with water. 



Well thats all from me today....
I hope you like what I made and will feel motivated to get creative.

Happy Crafting xx

"Love this'' Layouts and Tutorials by Rikki Graziani


Hi how are you? Rikki here and I nearly missed this months post!! Arrrggghh this month has really slipped away and I have been especially slack when it comes to the blogging editing part that comes with design team work , at least the creating has been happening though !!!

But enough of that, today I am here with some fussy goodness teamed up with a few key pieces of chipboard that are the perfect finishing touches to any layout. And also a bonus two video tutorials for you to get your mojo flowing.

The next layout was really done because I am in a little funk when I realised that I am not this year that organised for Christmas ( yes I am one of those people) to when I saw this collection I realised this will help me, well at least it will make sure my last years Christmas photos are starting to be scrapped.

The Magic Of Oz



The Magic of Oz

Welcome to the month were some of us like to celebrate all things Halloween!!

I would like to share with you a layout I have completed this month featuring my gorgeous niece Rochelle.
A couple of years ago she went as Dorothy from the Wizard of Oz for book week.
So naturally I had to use the beautiful papers from Graphic 45
The Magic of Oz


I have used a few chipboard pieces from Scrapmatts for this layout.




These pictures show where I have used the 


To create the layers, I have fussy cut up one of the sheets and placed over the base sheet.



 I have chosen to leave the Doorway frame, bubbles and string circles raw but I have coloured the micro chips with Archival Black Ink.
I have used the little film frames to showcase the faces.
I used these as reference to the Wizard of Oz being a movie.

To create this layout I have used the following chipboard

October Catch Up Post

Hi everyone

I've remembered this month.  Life really got in the way for me in September.  Before I realised it the 13th had flown by and I had missed my post for September.
