Framing & Outlining – A Scrapbook Layout

Hello friends!  Jenni here today to share a scrapbook layout I created using several of the newest stencils and metallic pastes for this Easter layout.

Below are the stencils and pastes I used in my project!

The Crafter’s Workshop provided me with some product to create this project.  The opinions I share are solely my own.

I used both sizes of two of the stencils to add dimension and a variation of scale.  Below are the products I used!

I started by using a stencil brush and Distress Oxide Ink to add a pattern to my background cardstock. 

This Wilted Violet Distress Ink is a vibrant color, but when using these stencil brushes becomes much more subtle. 

Using the Wild Roses template in both sizes, I outlined the petals using a waterproof Copic liner onto watercolor paper. 

I painted violets, pinks and corals onto the rose outlines as well as some leaves.

While the watercolors dried, I used this beautiful White Pearl Modeling Paste to create an inverted frame within my previously stenciled area.  Instead of a white frame and pattern inside the center, I used the pattern as the frame, using the Modeling Paste to create a ‘white’ space in the center. 

It has such a lovely iridescent finish while being very subtle.

 

While the paste dried, I went back to my watercolor flowers and fussy cut around them, making my own die cut flowers. 

Laying out my photo and the flowers, I planned out the placement of the title.

 

I decided to layer the two different sized stencils and different gold pastes adding some dimension to my title.

 

 Below are the close up pics!
