Beach Bum Mixed Media Layout by Farrel Tailor

Hello Sassy Fans!!! 

Today I am sharing with you all a mixed media layout I created whilst on a scrapbooking cruise earlier this week. I had so much fun creating this and hopefully this inspires you to create some beachy layouts before winter sets in!! 

So without further adieu, here is my layout

So the first thing I did was apply a thin coat of gel medium all over my Heidi Swapp Magnolia Jane 12x12 paper - Vintage Market. I used gel medium so that I would have time to move my paints around on the page before they started to dry.

I'm using Dina Wakley Heavy Body Acrylic Paints in White, Cheddar and Ocean. 

Using my fingers, I started to apply the paint to my paper. Why use my fingers you ask? I like the texture my fingers make rather than using a paint brush but if you wanted to use a brush, make sure it is a dry brush as this will also give you texture.

 I started with Cheddar and waited till it was dry before I applied Ocean and the same with White as seen below.

Next I tore a piece of paper from an old book and used the white paint to paint around the edges of the paper. I wasn't 100% happy with the way it looked so I decided to lightly coat the whole piece with paint.

Next I stamped randomly on the layout using Versafine Onyx Black and Darkroom Door Stamp Cling 3x2 Numbers. 

I did add some corrugated kraft cardstock for behind my photo and used my fingers to apply the 3 Heavy Body Acrylic Paints used in my background. I also used the white paint to paint around the edges of my photo to give that white wash look.

I have used a hessian and twine stamp I had in my stash along with this chipboard title. The gold honeycomb strip was also something I had packed with me for the trip and was glad I did.

I felt the layout was still missing something.... and then it hit me - I decided to try the Essentials Chipboard Stars Green which I think just finished off the layout perfectly and was so happy that the colour matched my layout...yay!!!!

And there you have it, another mixed media layout created using amazing products. So be sure to order your products today!!! 

Thanks for dropping by and until next time - Happy Scrappin' xx

Our Time Together Mixed Media Layout by Farrel Tailor

Good Morning Everyone, I am back today to share with you all a mixed media layout I created using the amazing Ranger Distress Oxide Inks.   

I wanted to create a layout that best matched the photo of my Dad with my youngest son and felt that the 13@rts range Timeless did this perfectly and it also matched the Distress Oxide Inks that I used - how cool is that?!

Here you can see how well the Faded Jeans and Spiced Marmalade Distress Oxide Inks match the papers. I loved using these inks especially when I sprayed water onto them....they are magical and addictive!!

I wanted to see if I could make my own coloured paste so I mixed Distress Oxide Iced Spruce with Prima Art Basics 3D Gloss Gel and used the Dylusions Stencil Old School Alpha. I was really surprised at how awesome it looked and loved it! Something I will definitely be doing with the other colours.

I then added some stamping using a stamp in my stash along with Versafine Onxy Black and then drew some lines around the edges of the page to tie in with the black stamp.

I really enjoyed creating this layout and it's amazing how you really don't need many items to create an eye catching layout and the products I used are perfect for a masculine layout.

Feel free to click on the process video if you would like to see how I created this layout.

Thanks for dropping by and hopefully I have inspired you to create your own mixed media layout.

Happy Scrappin' xx

Hi There!
Shell Carman here today. To all the Victorians out there I hope you are enjoying your day off! Hopefully you all back a winner today!
It's always a happy day when I get to play with Prima but I was extra excited to have a play with Prima Delight. It was one of my fav collections to be released last CHA. This photo was taken at the Caulfield Cup this year. It is an annual event for a group of us & something I look forward to! There is nothing better than having a bit of child free time & hanging out with friends plus it is fun to get all dressed up!
