layouts for Visual Creations

these are my layouts for Visual Creations...you can visit the gallery here for the supplies used. i would be designing mainly on Crate Paper.

SUPERSTAR

technique used: masking

picture printed on canon glossy paper.

tim holtz's fragments are a kiss to me. i just used some rub-ons and koala! an embellishment to boast.

masking technique done here using tim holtz's masks. rangers distress inks and blending foam are not to be taken for granted. they are great partners especially when creating effects with assorted colors.

bedazzles are my faves too! just squirt some glue ( or sepia accents) and pour your bedazzles on it. let it dry.

LOOK AFAR

i decided on using a Hambly screenprint transparency as my base for that elegant look. the feeling of stone in a transparent base creates a dreamy and sea-like atmosphere.

The Scrapbooker's Creativity Kit: Prompts And Ideas To Jump Start Your Layouts

hope to get hold of this one soon!!!!!! wishlist!!!

the game you played

this is my take on challenge 53 at journaling junkie :


THE GAME YOU PLAYED

The focus of this challenge would be an everyday event and using repetition -- recording what you were thinking about either while you were taking the pictures or how the pictures made you feel after you pulled them out to get ready to scrap them -- like for instance, originally, i had planned on scrapping about how Mackenzie is scissor happy and does not like to be disturbed --- and after looking at the pictures -- i began to see something different altogether and described the event and how Mack's everyday activities might give us some perception on what she may grow up to be and why.....

altered "bilao" or bamboo tray

have you ever eaten palabok or pancit in bilao ( bamboo tray )? what did you do with the tray afterwards?


i am sure 85% of you might say you threw it away...


if not, you might have used it for your fruits... or anything for display, right?


but have you thought of this ???

why not make it as a home decor???

that way, you display it. make your kids happy.

and save the environment too!!!

this is my take on the tutorial for artzdescrap, march 2009. head on to their website and for sure, you will be inspired to create as we, the DTs did with Deedah's ( inspirational scrapper ) creation.
