A little more inspiration from Tynke

Hello everybody,

Here's Tynke, back again from holiday. For this month, I prepared a photo-tutorial to show you how I made this layout.


I used the printables from our great sponsor Avec les Mains for it. Before we start, I want to tell you that I can only scrap in the evening, so that declares that the colors may be a little different..

But let me start. 

 First I started with light blue cardstock.

 I used this printable paper (grey wood) from Avec les Mains. I torned it a little bit.

 I added some dictionary pages, I pasted it also a little bit wrinkled and torn

 With a stamp and the white distress stain I made some dots on the paper

 I used some brusho (turquoise and ultra marine) on it, then I sprayed it with water. It's important that you are a little careful here with the brusho and water, because it can change the colors of the printables! When I dried it with a heat tool, I made some structure with a mask and modeling paste. Then I stamped a little bit with Stazon (Stone Gray, Teal blue and Ultra Marine) 

 With a distress-tool I made the edges of the papers from Avec les Mains a little bit rough. I inked them with stazon. 

 Next I added the papers and my picture on the Layout

 I inked the corners a little bit, and added the title with little alphabets and thickers

 At last, I added some washi tape and embellishments. I used some flowers, roses, charms, foam clay and dew drops.

And this is the result! I made a combination of both songs in the Title, "It's a nice day" from White Wedding by Billy Idol and the Title 'Relax' by Mika. 

Materials I used:

Design paper printables by Avec les Mains

Light blue cardstock

Dictionary pages

Distress Stain white

Stamps

Brusho Turquoise and Ultra-Marine

Stazon Ultra Marine, Teal Blue and Stone Gray

Mask 

Modeling paste

Distress-tool

Washi tape

Alphabeths ands thickers

Charms

Flowers and roses

Glitter Foam Clay 

Dew drops

Posca black

Well any song with the word relax gets me wanting a long, comfortable snooze in a cozy hammock. This Penny Black stamp fits that idea perfectly!

The word relax makes me think of retirement..so I created a card for this event.
