Hello, Karen here again to share another layout using the Chilling With My Snowmies collection from Echo Park. I've enjoyed working with this collection and love the colours in it.
I started with a sheet of smooth white cardstock and onto the middle of the page I applied some watered down Distress Oxide Ink in Faded Jeans using the packaging technique. Once the ink had dried I then added some splatters too.
Using some white acrylic paint and the Creative Expressions Mini Snowflakes Stencil I added some snowflakes on top of the blue ink. Once the layout was completed not much of the mixed media shows, but it does give a subtle background to the patterned papers.
I layered pieces of the Colorful Snowflakes, Feeling Frosty Snowflakes and Penguins & Snowballs patterned papers onto the layout, distressed the edges and machine stitched round the edges with white thread.
My 6x4 photo was matted with the Winter Floral paper and placed on the layout with 3D foam underneath to add some dimension. In my stash I found some white pom-pom trim and glued this to the bottom of the photo.
I threaded one of the tags from the Frames and Tags pack with some blue ribbon and placed this in the bottom right corner of the photo.
Underneath the tag I tucked some flowers which I had fussy cut from the Winter Floral paper.
On the Silhouette I die cut the word 'Snowflakes' from some navy cardstock and together with some tiny blue foam Thickers I created a big title at the side of the layout.
Finally I decided to add a pop of colour to the left edge of the layout with a strip of the Penguins & Snowballs paper and also dotted some clear flat back gems around the layout to add some sparkle.
I hope you feel inspired to scrapbook you winter photos and Papermaze has a huge selection of papers, etc to help you. You can find them all here including the Chilling with my Snowmies collection from Echo Park.
I'll be back soon, Take Care, Karen x x
