The background paper used is All Positive and used Dina Wakley gel medium to attach the multiple tags you see softly in the background. Once they were dried I used white gesso to prime my page for some mixed media. I used the packaging technique to apply Color Shince mists in peach, coral and butter. I love the look of those three colors together. Then I mixed mint acrylic paint into some modeling paste and used a Heidi Swapp Stencil with the 'plus' signs or added color to the background. I think my layout became a bit busy with this part.
The emphemra layered around the photo are all from the same collection and came with the kit. I used 3 wood veneers from the Type Set collection by Basic Grey. I colored the light bulb in Distress Paint Cracked Pistachio, the scissors in HS Color Shine in Butter, and the Happy in HS Color Shine in Coral. I set those aside to dry while I worked on the rest.
I added strips of Here and Now patterned paper as book ends to my layout. I also used this paper to tight mat my photo. The red alphas are from Studio Calico Red Christmas Alphas for my title. I added some light journaling to the page and that finished it off. I have my process video to see how this layout came together.
Thank you for stopping by,
