Playing with mix media

Yesterday was a very productive day for me. I was able to create 5 layouts! I decided to skip baking and do scrapbooking. I needed to finish some of my Sketchabilities DT work and then after that I did some research on how to use mix media. I found several tutorial videos on net and found art journal very interesting. I love how they play with techniques and how free it is. I love the fact that anything goes and that there is no mistakes. No pressure but only techniques and surprises. My paints have been accumulating dust in the storage. So I decided to bring them out and play with it! Here is the result:

I love the how it turned out. I just sprayed and splattered paint on it. In fact Ike had a little hand on creating this page...he accidentally placed my Samsung cellphone manual on top of the wet paint. But did you notice it? Lol good thing anything goes. LOL ;) Unfortunately I cannot post my other layout as I did it for my DT work but here is a sneak of it:
Watch out for the full page on Sketchabilities this February.

Here is another layout I made but this time I played with mist and some stamping. I love to spray mist on the paper and let it drip. I also used some of my left over Webster's paper from our Iris's kit.


I used the title LOVE YOU FOREVER because that is Ike's favorite story book by Robert Munch. He loves the way I sing to him the song of the mother in the book. That book is very touching. In fact, it got me teary eyed the first time I read it. I bought the book for Ike on his first birthday. It is my symbol of love for him. I want him to be reminded that he will forever be my baby.

Thanks for reading!

Webster's Class with Iris Uy

Last January 29, 2011 the LB Scrapaholics were fortunate enough to have Master Iris Uy as our Guest here in UP Los Baños. She taught us techniques on misting and distressing. It was really fun! I love the materials in the kit and our outputs! Here are the layouts:

We hope we can have her over again. Thanks for visiting!
