Australian Scrapbook Ideas – Issue 18 – Tried & Tested Mix’d Media Inx "Leaning Tower of Pisa""

 Back again with the last layout from the Mix’d Media Inx article in Issue 18 in the Australian Scrapbook Ideas magazine.  Leonii took this photo of the Leaning Tower of Pisa on her holiday overseas last year!!! This one shows the use of mixing the Mix’d Media Inx with modelling paste then used over stencils!!
I went live with my facebook page tonight and I am blown away by the response already!!!
Thank you so much everyone from the bottom of my heart!!! 🙂

Tip:  Blend your Mix’d Media Inks with modelling paste to create different coloured modelling paste. You can use the ink pads or the re inkers for this technique.
Tip:  Mix’d media Inx Blend and run easier over the top of Modelling Paste or Gesso and is absorbed more on plain paper but can still be softened and blended into the paper when spritzed with water.

Australian Scrapbook Ideas – Issue 18 – Tried & Tested Mix’d Media Inx "Boy Stuff"

Back again with another layout from my Mix’d Media Inx article in Issue 18 in the Australian Scrapbook Ideas magazine. This one is of my two favorite boys doing boy stuff in the shed!
I love these pics, I don’t know how I manage to catch a smile on Wil, they were both protesting, “do I have to with that camera?” LOL

 

Tip: Incorporate Cog embellishments with the cogs in the photos so they look like they are all connected.
