Sandra W's First Share

Hello Everyone!

Sandra Wallace here with my very first blog post for WOW.
I was very excited to receive my box of goodness from Suzanne and couldn't wait to get started!
My first layout I created was a layout for the

Kraft Plus October "Inspired by Nature" Challenge.

The WOW Butterfly
and WOW Mini Toadstool

 

were PERFECT additions to my layout.
All I had to do was give them a light touch up with some brown ink
to make them standout from the page a bit

********************************** 

 

The next WOW layout I created was for the Triple Treat Challenge

and the theme Christmas!

 

This is a photo of my sister's gorgeous family for their first Christmas.
I "de-constructed" the chipboard pieces.
It is something I do a lot.
I added the "1st" from the 1st Birthday word

I also used the 4in1 Altamatz, using the corner with the squares to create a bit of texture for the background :-)

*****************************************
 

The next layout I created was a lot of fun!
The WOW Triangles (links below) were PERFECT for this layout and the photos.
I thought I might share with you a quick and basic step by step on how I created it.

The first thing I did was create a "cross" with some washi tape and a piece of serviette

and then stencilled using the 4in1 Altamatz and a texture paste and paint mixture

 

 

then dabbed some gesso over it once it was dry, just to tone down all that yellow!

 

 

While I had the sponge nice and wet with the gesso I also dabbed some on the
WOW Messy Triangles (each a different size)Thick

Fine

and Large

 

 

I then added some stamping on the background and some paint splats rubons.

 

 

Added the photos, triangles, flowers , cotton and flairs and a title.

 

 

and my layout is done!
