Confidant Scrapbook Kit | Catherine Davis
I thought I would share an idea for using the specialty transparencies we include in kits from time to time. For this particular layout, I wanted to utilize the floral design in the main February Confidant Scrapbook kit and the transparent quality of the paper to enhance the design.
I started with a purple sheet of cardstock, as opposed to white, to layer behind the pinks and corals of the floral transparency. I felt like it added to the color on the page. Using Jasmine's February Add-On Poppy Stamp and Color Theory pigment ink, I created a repeating pattern along the right-hand side of my page. I was sure to double up on areas where I already stamped to add a bit of variety to the black tones. I really want them to pop through the transparency.
I layered the transparency and used one of the transparent titles in the kit. I accented with some chipboard banners and made sure to pop up my image with foam dots for even more dimension. I decided to cut the transparency so a bit of the purple cardstock would peek out, to tie into the purple on the chipboard banner.
I hope this was a helpful idea! If you try this and post in the gallery, please tag me so I can check it out. I'm also here to answer any questions you have. Just comment below!
