Dream Big By Lisa Nazario-Gregory
I have been teaching Mixed Media workshops at Scrapbook Expo’s conventions. The passion for mixed media is very strong in our crafting industry. Today I want to share this beautiful layout that uses some textures, embossing powder, spray mists, texture paste, and more.
Lisa has added some rolled roses with a touch of silver on the edges to give her layout some dimension. And what a gorgeous combination of colors! This certainly could be a beautiful masterpiece to hang on your wall. Click here and I will take you over to What A Beautiful Mess. Lisa will fill your mind with so much inspiration! You won’t want to miss more of her outstanding projects.
What do you do with your leftovers that don’t make it onto your creations? Lynne shares this fabulous card with us that she created by using up her leftover supplies. Look at all the fun things she has added to this card. What a treasure that she can give to a special someone in her life.
Don’t put away your leftovers away – keep them out and take a few extra minutes to create a card. You will be so surprised how fast your card collection will build up. I highly recommend stopping by and spending some creative time with Lynne. Be sure to visit her blog The Next Best Thing – you are sure to be inspired!
Thinking of You By Georgeann Manning
Put your embossing folders to work! Georgeann inked her embossing folder so that only the recessed portion would be inked. After running a piece of cardstock through, it made her trees really pop.
This card made me want to pull out my embossing folders and get creating! What a perfect card to let someone know how special they are to you. Let’s pop on over to Stampin’ Everything where you can get a complete list of supplies to create your personal card. A special thank you to Georgeann for sharing her fabulous card.
