Make It Yours Monday~ Step By Step

Step by Step, oh baby!!! Sorry for the song stuck in your head now, but it’s the perfect way to describe my layout today!!! I was inspired by the incredible Katty Miranda’s mixed media and this song title!! 

This layout started with a piece of Bazzill marshmallow cardstock being layered on some sky blue and Navy blue cardstocks. Then, the fun began! I used a bunch of Shimmerz mists and the packaging technique to create my background. Deep Blue Sea Vibez, Jeni B Bleu Vibez, Cotton Candy Spritz, Pink Stilettos Coloringz and Mandarin Mai Tai Coloringz all complimented my photo and created this fun watercolory background! After a few splatters of each color mist,  I used a random dotted stencil next with more shimmerz, but this time I used the new  paste-eez in Salt of the Earth to add a bit of texture to the background. 

For my photos, I backed them with complimenting colors to the background. Pink, light blue, and a navy played well with the photos and background. An 8″ doily from the shop backing the mat’s was the perfect way to separate the mat’s from the background. 

I used thickers to add my title to the bottom of the page, under the photos. Step-by-Step! Yup, there I go again! Love You Tons and Hot Pink Heart Felties  scattered around the page brought some added color and texture and some Be True 2 U sequins brought the sparkle!

I hope you will Step-by-Step on over to the shop and pick up some of the great products I used in todays layout. When you do…
