Hi Lovelies!
It's challenge time again over at The Paper Girls Challenge Blog and I'm hosting Challenge #200 so I'd really love it if you played along! The theme is All About Boys!
If you are taking Shimelle's Start with a Sketch class my layout is based on sketch #7.2
The difference with this sketch is that most of the layering was done with things OTHER than pattered paper (although I did manage to sneak in a few more scraps than Shimelle originally intended).
There IS a process video, BUT both the lighting and my editing are not what I hoped they would be. Time got to the better of me and I forgot about zooming in in the video editor. I cropped out a lot since much of it was repetitive fiddling and re-sticking.
Process Video
I do address the issue of how to tell a longer story and splitting it across multiple pages. In this case I wanted to include three photos that illustrated the shenanigans of remote learning. Making a separate layout for each one is kinda overkill, but two (or maybe three) layouts documenting the entire
Here's the journaling if you want to have a read:
Another trick which I'm nor sure is clearly shown in the video is the doubling up on Glue Dots (like under the grey cat) gives just a bit more dimension than regular adhesive, but not so much as the shallower foam squares. When you're tucking things under, it's a useful trick to remember.
The Title
The Embellies
The Trials and Tribulations of Remote Learning
And lastly here are a couple of masculine cards. They were made to go overseas so they have a slight Australian vibe. I reduced the size of cut files intended as 12x12 backgrounds so the finished cards are a bit smaller than 6" square. Each was backed with one or more patterened papers and accented with gum leaf gut files and gold mist. Nice and simple and binge-cutting saves time later. I'm all about efficiency!
