ColourBlast Backyard!

Hello Colour Blast Friends,

A different and just as fabulous Amy here to share my first every design for the amazing Colourblast. I am going to do my best and hopefully inspire you to use those lovely little pots a little more often with your scrapbook layouts.

For this background you will need a mosiac stencil, Tangareen Dream Colour Paste ,

Colour Shimmer Dust Candy and Sunflower

and water. (perhaps in a spray bottle)

Start with your stencil diagonal down the page and smear on your Colour Paste. Don't be shy we all love this stuff. Once that has dried enough spray on water liberally on the page. Dust a tiny bit of Candy and Sunflower Colour Shimmer Dust over different parts of your page and tilt your page so it will dribble. Spray more water if you need to. It will warp but once it is in your album it will re flatten

Once that all dries layer your photo and little pieces of matching card. I used snippets from 4 6x4 cards to create the clusters around my photo.

Journal with a good pen and feel free to draw a border around your background.

Boy EveryDay

Hello Scrappy guys and girls,
Amy here its almost summer here, hot as a frog on a hot tin roof it is.

Let me tell you a some new gossip.

Number One is I have created a FB page so please send some love by liking https://www.facebook.com/amysmalldesigns/?ref=hl

and TWO is my layout called Boy Everyday. I would like to show you how you can use a cutfile to soften a boy layout. I am all about my boys as you can see and I have used the PCW cutfile Doily and Rose Set.

You can see by layering the doily behind a boy collection like this one from Cocoa Vanilla Studio you can break up the harsh lines and provide more dimension to your page

Materials used - Papercraftingworld.com cutfiles, cocoa vanilla studio collection, flutterby flairs and wood veneer, studio calico stickers, embossing powder white,

 

 I hope this layout has inspired you to scrap your boys more often. They do such wonderful funny things that need to be documented. My challenge blog Scrap the Boys can give you a little more inspiration each month.
