Hi,

I am so honoured! I do mainly cards and layout are something more just some time for fun. So it was really big surprise to see my work on Prima blog.

Prima challenge – layout

Hi,

this layout is for Prima BAP challenge – July. I made quite clean layout but with many details. I love Primas stamps so I used many floral stamps to build background, I stamped and heat embossed gold flowers, than I stamped flowers with chalk inks, I glued some strips from patterned paper, I also used Primas stencil, structure paste and gold embossing, embellishments are made with Prima dies. For splatters I used Finnabairs acrylic paints and color bloom sprays.

Photo is from our garden. Sentiment stickers are from Salvage district and Vintage emporium paper pads.

Sometimes it can be challenge not to use prepared embellishments as ephemera, stickers, flowers. With little bit of creativity and of course with good material as high quality stamps you can make layout as I did.

Hi,

this mixed media card is for Prima challenge Tags and Cards. I really enjoy creating of this card, I made tons of different details.

Papers, ephemera, paintable paper, flowers are from Tales of you and me collection.

I used also some older stamps, I used different Prima oil pastels, color bloom sprays, mettalic pains from Finnabair, all medias are from Finnabair. I used some older wreath chipboard and lace. And many different beads.

I work according sketch but my 4 basic elements are little bit covered by other embellishments. You can see four squares under lace.
