Arty Backgrounds #2

Hi there,

Well the Melbourne Paperific Expo has come and gone and what a fabulous time we had. It was great to see so many familiar faces there and meet many new ones. It was the busiest I've seen for a number of years.

A few weeks ago I showed you some layouts I had published in Australian Scrapbook Ideas magazine. I showed you two layouts that were in my article about Arty Backgrounds and, finally, here are the other two:


This stunning photo was taken by Shanaya Photo and Video. It's way too good to be taken by me! This lady's photography is amazing! This layout was created using watercolour and stamping techniques.


This layout concentrated on reverse stencilling as my arty background technique.

I hope you were able to get the mag as full instructions on how to make these layouts were in there.

Happy Scrappin'!

Heather
