Hi everyone! I hope you are all doing well! - I'm on the Design Team for the My Little Scrapbook Store, and this weekend, we held a FUN On-line Virtual Crop on Facebook - filled with lots of challenges!
I was asked to create a challenge and do a Facebook Live video, showing some fun techniques - and I'll post a link below.
I showed to "water distress," how to mix patterns from different manufacturers, how to Gut your paper, and create a 3D pocket to tuck a journaling card in.
Here is the finished layout:
I used a photo of my hubby and I in front of Westminster Abbey, while on our first trip to London, in October 2018.
This is the journaling tag ( front ) and you can also the arrows pointing to the little star where I marked London on the map!
Here is the back of the journaling tag that I tucked behind the photo. You can also see the feathery edges created by using the water distressing technique to tear the edges.
Thanks so much for stopping by, and thanks to all who attended my Facebook Live! I hope I've inspired you to try these techniques and play along with the My Little Scrapbook Store's May On-line Crop! If you weren't able to watch me "live" - here is the link for the video that was recorded -
