Prima BAP

It's been so long since I've gotten to play along in any challenges, I was super excited that I found the time this month to create a layout based on Prima's BAP!

The sketch this month was super beautiful and I couldn't pass up playing along!

 

 

Here is my take on this month's Prima BAP! The photo is of my middle daughter!
I had such a blast with this sketch and I felt like it really got my creative juices flowing. I just kept layering and layering and I just love the results I ended up with!

The paper is Prima's Sweet Fairy Collection, the colors are just so soft and beautiful and super easy to work with! I just love the color combo of purple and yellow! I usually don't even work with purple because I have a hard time with it, and this collection went together so super easy!

The flowers are all Prima of course and they are layered with a GORGEOUS ballerina from Prima's Fairy Belle Collection.

Thanks for looking I hope you enjoyed~!!
Happy Scrapping

Scrap That May Kit Tutorial

Hi there, 

Jenifer here today posting for Scrap That!

I have a quick lil tutorial using the

Scrap That May Anniversary kit

I wanna share with you!!

When I was creating my kit I found that I absolutely adored the Say It In Pearls Adhesive Border

 However it's color did not match the project I really wanted to use it for. So I decided I would use some acrylic paint to alter it along with a few of the alphas from the kit for my title and my 3-D roses I made with the polymer clay.

SUPPLIES

Item's you'd like to paint (I am painting my 3-D polymer clay roses as well as a few alphas from the kit and my say it in pearls adhesive border)

paint brush

acrylic paint in your choice of color(s)

You may consider a few paper towels and something to paint on so you do not get it on your work space, I just use disposable plates.

STEP 1

 

  Lightly coat your pearl adhesive border with a touch of your acrylic paint.....it doesn't take much, if you put to much the paint will fill in the negative spaces of the details and you will no longer be able to see it the design. Also I found when painting the actual pearls, it;s easier to paint over them once and leave them to dry, if you can still see the previous color once the first coat has dried, you can add another coat.

Set aside to dry before use.

**TIP**

I only needed half of this border for my project so I only painted the half I needed and cut it in half for my layout instead of wasting it behind the photo. I saved the unpainted half for later use.

STEP 2

 I like to cut my alphas out leaving them still attached to the clear film before I paint them, that way I do not get unwanted paint on the other alpha's by leaving them on the sheet...nor do I loose the stickiness due to removing them from the film.

Before painting the alphas you want to be sure and remove any centers that will not be part of your title before you start. For example: the circle from the e's  a's or b's ect. 

If you do not remove these before painting the center edges will not get painted and will remain the original color.

Depending on the color you choose to paint your alpha's they may need more than 1 coat of paint. Just like above, you need to let the first coat dry before you add another.

 

**TIP**

When your letters are all dry and you are ready to remove them from the clear film for use on your project, you may find that there is excess dried paint on the edges or maybe in the center holes where you previously removed unwated pieces. VERY gently pinch the edges off using you finger nails and for the centers I find a circular motion a few times with a straight pin works well.

STEP 3

BEFORE

These are the 3-D roses I made using the polymer clay from the kit. (they are MUCH easier than they look)

Anyhow this is what they looked like after baking, and I thought they'd work PERFECT for the project I was creating, so why not paint them too?!?!

AFTER

I left them blotchy looking on purpose to give them somewhat of a dimensional look, because I have not mastered any kind of fancy paint techniques as far as shading goes......

Once I added them to my Layout I decided I should add some purple stickles....

FINISHED PRODUCT USING ALL MY PAINTED GOODIES!!

I hope you have enjoyed my lil tutorials, and are inspired to create something beautiful of your own possibly using an idea I have shared with you all today.
