Here is my first layout for my 2 Crafty reveal this month.
This layout showcases a technique using I used the negative image from the Soft Feather Set from my 7 Dots Layout featured on December 5th on my blog.
I try to save most of my chipboard backings even if I’ve already used the inside. I like using them as a one time stencil for my work. For the most part, you can only use the chipboard as a stencil one time, as if it gets too wet it becomes soft and it flakes.
Here is a little tutorial on how I used this feather chipboard stencil.
I used some Light Molding paste and covered the feather in the stencil a few times around the page. The image is thick, almost as thick as the chipboard and it looks 3D. That’s why it takes longer to dry.
You can see the feathers in the image below. I highlighted them in black pencil so they would stand out.
I also sprayed each feather in a different Shimmerz Spray and let it drip down the page. The feather images surround the photo to mimic the mask on my daughter’s face.
I also used these peacock feathers to add so more flare the the feathered theme. The were sprayed in the same colours as the inks below them and then stamped with archival ink.
Finally I added the Happy You title from the Birthday Sentiments pack.
I used lots of different Shimmerz sprays and paints for this layout: Jeni B Blue, 4 Leaf clover, Blue jeans, Rock-a-fella, Bamboo Leaf, Sea Foam and Teal. Each colour was used on a different feather.
As per usual I always want to point out the amazing deal that Stacey gives people when they purchase from the Shimmerz store. All you have to do is to mention my name during check out to receive your free product. You can get either a Dazzlerz, Texturez or Dimensionz of your choice.
