Feeling crafty today . want to achieve something new & different .lets go & create these layouts
(1) i have used Protective PP3603 as my base for my double layout ,distress the edges, and ink with distress oxide blueprint sketch inks ( or any other deep blue you have ) around the edges,
(2) Next with Colour Blast Colour artist ink put some in a spray bottle add some water mix the amount of drops you add depends on the darkness of the next procedure, I have bought from mixed gypsys a butterfly chipboard with cogs , so i have sprayed though the chipboard onto my base papers around the edges of both base sheets , you dont need to do middle, as the next paper will cover.
dry. i use my fan lol to dry things in a hurry so im not waiting you can use heat gun or place out in the sun ( make sure you put something on it so it doesn't blow away.
(3) cut a blue sheet of cardstock four and quarter by six and quarter and spray with the cog chipboard, set aside to dry and use a bit later in layout
(4) with The Man PP3606 cut circle out, i have used my dinner plate that we use for the microwave LOl from top to bottom its 10 inches round. distress edges again and ink with blue . so circle on one side of the layout & the negative on the other side of your layout
(5) next technique you dont own a cog stamp, well here ive done something new . with the same chipboard you used before we are now going to stamp, which i hope , the chipboard is now dry also , ink with Distress oxide blueprint sketch onto the same side as you used for the spraying now stamp around the pages ive only placed it on one layout ,but you can do on both if you like .
A Small Hint - if you have a soft sponge place it under the paper before you stamp, and then stamp the image will come out a lot sharper )
( 6) cut out the bonus sheet "squares & rectangles"and with the acetate. glue the acacate "life is a one time offer" and "think outside the box," of the squares you have just cut out only place liquid glue on the darker parts of words ,that way it wont show . when dry.
(7) get colour artist ink and with the dropper drop in around the area, dollop around the page i have a old rag that i use to blot up anything, ( even mistakes when i didn't put the lid back on and it spilt over my table oppps ) so i just leave a few seconds to let it absorb the paper then blot off what i dont need. doesnt matter if it smudges its for a mans page, boys are messy
( 8 ) cut out the chevrons ( arrows ) off the acacate sheet as well as the numbers and assemble as layout shown
() cut out one strip of the chevron paper and distress & ink and place across the middle under the photo
(9) "its a mans world chipboard "is painted with walnut colour Blast Art ink i just put one drop on a craft mat and used a paint brush to paint it on .
( 10 ) add flair to the page ,
add your photo to the dried mat and stick to the page .
hope you enjoyed this -
___________________________________________________
now for layout 2
so most of the layout has been done in layout one , so add your outside of the circle to this side, then add i have 9 photos 4 inch by 3 inch some of the four inch sides go under the outside edge circle .i have distress the edges
cut our cogs from your papers Loyal PP 3605 distress and ink .
for my title i have used one of the strips that you cut off at the bottom of the page and matted it with blue cardstock. also cut out my toys and matted some of my photos
i have cut the chain also in embellishment pack and ran it around the cogs and then around half of the page , it also has some green beads in the packet so when i glued the chain with wet glue i just added the green around the edges and let dry.
i have raised my dad in this photo with collall 3d decoupage glue ( sorry karen does not sell this ) i love it use it all the time instead of glue dots, but you can use glue dots for the same effect
thank you hope you enjoyed my layouts please share what you have created please love to see something that ive created
until next time have a great day .
