weekly challenge | Anna-Maria Wolniak
Hi everyone! I loved working with the Blue Note Scrapbook kit, and I have a tutorial on how one of my projects came together. I decided to make a blue/navy layout with a touch of red and some white space - all of these colours you can find in December kits. You won't need anything more than a few things from the Blue Note Scrapbook kit and 'Blue Note' printables to create similar project as I made.
I used a diamond shape cardboard as a mask. To get a proper shade of blue mist I added a few drops of ultramarine ink to the bottle of Mister Huey's 'Bazinga' mist.
I used the misted cardboard mask, recycled glassine bag and transparent foil with silver stars to create the layers under my photos. Close to the darkness parts of the photos I applied some thin layer of gesso and afternoon it dried I paint a little bit using peerless watercolours and the same shade of Mister Huey's I used for misting.
Next I added some printable details, ultramarine tangled thread, a title and 'december' stamp. I put a printable tag into the hidden pocket made with glassine bag and...
... my layout was ready. Oh, I forgot that I also made some tiny splashes using Mister Huey's Opaque White - my favourite not only for the winter projects.

Absolutely beautiful! I really like how you used the positive & negative of the cut out. The blues are perfect with your sons beautiful eyes.
Definitely going to give this a try. I hope I can find some time during the busy Christmas week to work on it.

Love the shades of blue you created with the Mr Huey's. Since blue is my favorite color, I am sure I have pics I can try this with in a layout. Haven't had time to use my diamond cut puts yet, so now I have been given an idea to use them with. Thanks for sharing.
