Photo tutorial

I used a chipboard primed with gesso for my base

 

then I added gelatos all over

 

I use my fingers to rub the gelatos making the colors blend

I applied matte multi medium on top of the gelatos

taped down the stecil with  washi tape before applying the light modeling paste

while the paste is wet, I applied the embossing powder on top.

removing the excess powder using a dry brush

 

 

 

for the super emboss look I intentionally placed the heat gun on top of the paste for a few seconds forcing the medium to bubble.

here is the finished tag

Lasting Impression August 16, 2014 Mixed Media Layout Class

Here are layouts we did last Saturday at Lasting Impressions.

Layout 1

This made this layout using a 12x12 arylic for my base. I use prima butterfly stencil and viva decor 3d stamp paint (white) for my background. Viva decor 3d stamp paint (gold) to color the edges. 

Here, I also use Tim Holtz reverse stamp for the background.

On this cluster, I added paper flowers and leaves, resin, metal pieces and some sticker then I added some gold 3d stamp paint on random areas.

Here are some fussy cutting I did, added some small flowers then painted gold 3d stamp paint to some areas of the cut outs.

Layout 2.

For the background, I used pabeo sand textured paste then added some silver crush glitter. After drying I painted it with gold drawing ink

On this cluster I added flowers, resin, paper straw and some layered papers underneath.

Layout 3.

This is a simple layout created using simple techiques. 

Beautiful resin pieces altered by adding embossing powders.

For the background I use stars stencil. I also use 3 colors of chalk inks to creat this background using baby wipes to spread the chalk inks.

Layout 4.

Here I use my favorite picture of me and my son... just cant help it to smile everytime I see this photo.

This is also a simple layout created with stenciling and stamping.

Loving sequins right now.

Tried out this new product from Lasting Impression. Viva decor trasparent crackling paste. Just love the effect of this medium. 

Thank you all for dropping by!!!

Happy crafting!!!
