Here is Sandrine's Beautiful example:
 "Magic"
 

 Sandrine used Imaginarium Chipboard, 7 Dots Studio "Love is in the Air" paper, Prima Flowers, We Are Memory Keepers Twine and Tattered Angels Glimmermist.

To create her background heart, Sandrine printed out an 8" heart in Publisher, cut it out and used it as a mask while spraying various inks, she drew the outline of the heart using watercolour paintbrush dipped in blue glimmermist. Products available here.

And Tina's gorgeous example:

 

And Tina's Tip: Layer laces and washi tape to add texture and interest. Change the colour of embellishments by using inks or mists".

Tina used Scrapping Outback's 7 Dots Studio paper, A2Z chippy, and Prima & Manor House flowers.

Layout Update...

Just thought I would update a few of the recent layouts that I have created for classes at Mt Cotton.

The first one has been created using loads of stamps, glimmer mist and the cross hatch template from WOW. The flowers are from Green Tara and Prima and are available in the  

Scrapping Outback shop right HERE

 This layout "Lovebirds" has been created using a combination of 7 Dots papers and Kaiser - both available at Scrapping Outback. I have also used the WOW cross hatch template and glimmer mist here as well to created the background effect.

I hope you like these creations :) there is more to come soon....
Take care
