Watercolor and Scrapbook Layout

I am so happy I had time to make another scrapbook layout :)

this layout was inspired by Pink Fresh Studio 

with this month theme Watercolors,

don't their watercolors look awesome?!

and of course I used my favorite color: Teal

 Just Add Ink Challenge

I do have to say that even though the watercolors 

look good on the regular 12 x 12 scrapbook paper

I prefer how they look in watercolor paper

plus it doesn't warp as regular paper

well, lesson learned :)

also since I used yellow, black and white 

I can also link to Cupcake Inspirations challenge

I wanted to go over the details

I found the perfect colorful scrap paper piece

in my stash to combine with this layout

and of course I had to stamp on it :)

Then on the bottom I used a matted word 

which I inked with black around the edges

to match the stamp on the top

Then I used some words that I cut out 

of a scrapbook paper background

to scatter around the page

and this one shows you how I matted the picture with two different

scrapbook paper scraps that helps me bring the picture out

with a little cluster on the side using a bubble sticker.

I hope this have been informative and inspiring for some of you :)

Let's see if I can keep this ball rolling 

at least until I go back to school

which I know is going to keep me busy :)

and yes, that's me in the picture :D

Staying Creative with a Simple Mixed Media Page

I am trying to stay active in my blog

by showing you what am I up to :)

I love to make a variety of things

for some reason I can't stay focus in just one area of art

I love scrapbooking. art journaling, mixed media, you name it.

Today I am sharing a mixed media page 

I made yesterday inspired by a few challenge blogs I follow.

Simon Says: Add a little sparkle

I am not the sparkle kind of person 

so I looked for a quote since I love to encourage people :)

in combination with

Cupcake Inspirations: Black, White and Yellow

I had to work with black which for me is a hard color to use

but what better way to make sparkles shine even more

than a black background

then splashed some yellow paint by tapping the end of my paintbrush

and let it dry to be able to write with my white pen.

Just Add Ink: Add a T

for this one I couldn't resist 

I had to add my favorite color: Teal

Pretty simple and that's the point

hoping I can stay creative and active in my blog

Thanks for visiting :)

One Happy Day

I am so proud of myself today :D

I usually never give time to myself

to do the things I like

I mean deep work and I am seeing the results :)

Anyways, I am so happy that I am able to come here to my blog

and seems like I am finally doing it :)
