Step by step- Mixed media layout

Hey there bloggers Rita Barakat here with a mixed media layout!
It's a scrap-lift from  Misty Russell -
it was gorgeous so I had to copy lift it!
I don't know how she went about hers but here's how I made mine.

 
     First I started with a foil embossed paper ( DCWV )
Added some texture with modeling paste
and a stencil (Artistcellar Jill K. Berry-Romans)

After it was dry I added some color with Dylusions Ink spray.

Then I cut up some flags and sprayed some of those.
Added them onto my page, mxing in pattern paper (Susan K Weckeser) cut flags,
overlapping each other with some heavy gel medium.
Sprayed a ton of flowers to match.
And added a little text- Oh yeah- the pic on the left
was from our honeymoon way back when and the pic
on the right is last year. Which reminds me - we need to take a  new photo! 
And I need to scrap-lift more often, that was fun!

  1. It's fun to look at too Rita! I really like what the coloured sprays do to the foiled papers - calm and brighten them if that makes sense.
    Having fun is surely what it is all about!
