August Inspirations plus a VIDEO Tutorial
by Catherine Giguère

'Today'


 Hello 2 Crafty fans!

 Catherine here with you today to share two new layouts and a VIDEO TUTORIAL.. 

 


For this layout, I first made a textured background with doilies and stamps. I added heavy gesso
 on my collage to add even more texture. Then, I put drops of blue, gray and green inks on my
 doilies and I stamped with black Archival ink to add contrast. 


I glued some Prima Art Stones to add texture again!


I embossed the 'Lattice Leaves' with black powder to add more contrast.


I left my other chipboards ('today' title and the 'Leafy Shrub Set 4') natural.

'Cherish'


Again, for this layout, I first made a textured background with modeling paste, doilies 
and stamps. I put drops of coral and peachy inks on my doilies and I  stamped with 
brown Archival ink to add contrast. 


I embossed the 'Elsa Frame' with white embossing powder to make it stand out.
 I love this chipboard!


I glued Prima Art Stones and Coral Prills with Matte Medium Gel to add texture.


I embossed my title 'cherish' and the 'Corner Thick Vine' with brown embossing powder.


I cut the 'Corner Thick Vine' in three pieces to place them under my flowers and around my picture.
