Here is the video showing how I finished one of my layouts following Wilna Furstenberg's mixed media scrapbooking course. This is only from when I used the gelatos to paint. I've already stenciled the paper and allowed it to dry before painting. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uSzAbav0WsI
These are two layouts I finished yesterday. I also made a process video of the second layout and hope to share that soon. The journaling has always been the hardest part for me but when I flip through older layouts, I find that the journaling is what I'm drawn to. Products used: Cut files by... Continue Reading →
