Many Faces of You with Amy Prior

Hi everyone! I am back today with another uber bright and fun layout to share with you all.

For this layout I have used the awesome Large Shape Starburst 2. This is seriously one of my favourite most versatile A2Z Scraplets chipboard goodies in my stash so much so that I have used it half a dozen times in the past year alone! 

For this layout I have cut the starburst in half and have mixed some Impasto Medium in with some Teal Heidi Swapp Color Shine Spray and smeared it over the top randomly. Impasto is another type of thicker viscosity medium available in any good art store and it dries almost clear so can be mixed with a variety of acrylic paints etc to achieve fun textured results in tonnes of different ways. Because i have mixed it with the watery liquid Color Shine Spray, the impasto medium was thinned out a lot more than usual so always take that into account when adding various paint products to any type of thickening medium, be mindful of the wateriness always. I could have easily stamped more texture into this when it was still wet but I liked the smeared droopy effect that was created. 

I really wanted my sunburst to have a few layers so I have sprayed my background with some Pink Bubblegum Dylusions Ink Spray and added lots of drops here there and everywhere before adding a black coloured paper doily, my teal impasto covered chipboard scraplet and then some gorgeous Flourish with a Bling Pearl Flourishes and a Charms Creations Heart. Isn't is just so fun?

These sunbursts/starbursts are huge in the industry at the moment and I am seriously loving it! Did you know A2Z Scraplets has had this design for ages now? Seriously have you checked out the website properly and had a proper browse. There is so much variety available from A2Z Scraplets it is just crazy to get your chipboard anywhere else. Tell your local scrapbook store to order some in for you today or order direct from A2Z Scraplets yourself. Grab a cup of tea and checkout the website today!

Here is where you will find the stabursts Large as used in my layout above.

That is it from me today, be sure to check back for some more inspiration tomorrow and until next time, happy scrapping!

My kinda take on the sketch

And yep it is a kinda take lol. I had the A2Z Sketch next to me and I DID look at it but sometimes these things happen.

Here is my take:

I created my own background using gesso, mist and gelatos. The stars are from A2Z and come in a pack of 8 and in differnet sizes. I used gesso and gelatos and then outlined in black.

The scraplet title was just inked and embossed.

Here are the scraplets I used:

Here is the sketch:

You have til midnight on the 31st of this month to enter and go into the draw to win scraplets. The entries so far have been awesome!!!

Thanks for looking

Hi everyone its Kerry here again. I hope everyone is enjoying their weekend. I have had a very scrappy weekend and have managed 5 finished layouts so far. But i have also managed to get 8 assignments done as well. Very happy here.

The layout i am going to share with you today is of my DH. We have only been together a couple of years and this is the first picture i have of when we were together. It is a very special picture for me and holds lots of memories which i have journalled on the journalling tag. It is sometimes easy to forget writing all your memories down and be too caught up scrapping the perfect layout.

I have used this gorgeous scraplet heart which i have painted and doodled on.

I am having so much fun playing with these scraplets. Cant wait to show you more.

A Spring LO using the Doodlet 30!

                                           Greetings A2Z Fans!
I hope each of you are having a great week so far!
Here's a fun Spring time LO I created using the Doodlet 30!
The fun thing about creating with the Doodlets you can use them in so many
different ways they are so versatile where you can use them on any crafty project!
Did you know A2Z Scraplets carries a variety of doolets in various designs?
Most of them come in 2 packs too! The link is above to view the
other Doodlets designs! Below under the LO is the link to the Doodlet 30 I used.
I wanted my Doodlet to look rustic and worn. I added some white paint randomly
and then I added some brown ink very heavy for a richer color.
Once it was dried I used some black ink on the edges.
Here's the LO!

Here's the close up! Doodlet 30.
