Good morning!
I am back to share a tutorial for a layout I created using MANY items from the Funkie Junkie Boutique!
I hope my tutorial inspires you to create!
To begin - gather all your supplies. You will need 4 coordinatng papers, mist, stencil, clear gesso, flowers, a title, mica powder, cardboard and texture paste
1- cover your top paper with clear gesso
2 - then do some tearing in random areas. I used the beautiful Garden House papers from Stamperia. Keep a piece of the torn paper so you can tuck it in in later steps. Also fussy cut some leaves from one of the papers
3 - If you do not have cardboard that is already showing the corrugated inside then tear a cover off
4 -tear the cardboard making sure there are no straight edges
5 - Dry brush the cardboard with white paint or white gesso then set aside
6 - cut two pieces of paper. One at 2 1/2 x 11 and one at 2 x 11. Distress the edges
7 - Use a stencil - I used the Tim Holtz Dot Fade Stencil with Grit Paste. Heat set or allow to dry
8 - add mica powder to the stenciled areas then spritz with water
9 - heat set the colored areas
10 - take a set of 3 of the Wild Orchid small flowers and straighten the stems
11 - twist the stems onto the stem of the next flower to create a chain of flowers
12 - spray some flowers to match your project. I used the mica spray I made in an earlier post and Tim Holtz Hickory Smoke. Heat set or allow to dry.
13 - ink or pant your title piece (I forgot to take a photo of this step)
14 - distress the edges of all your papers then layer your top sheet onto your background paper and tuck the ripped paper from earlier in.
15 - add the cardboard from earlier
16 - layer the two pieces of paper you cut
16 - add your title and elements.

Thanks for stopping by and I hope I have inspired you!
