Hello everyone! Welcome to my day during the Helmar & Epiphany Crafts Inspiration Week!
Can you believe the awesomeness that's been happening this week?? Tons of inspiration from some amazingly talented ladies! Be sure to visit both the Helmar USA and Epiphany Crafts blogs each day.
For my own post today I'm sharing a 12×12 layout.
The base of my layout is a piece of the For The Record Collection by Echo park. I gessoed over it through a Gauche Alchemy piece of star punchinella. Once the gesso was dry I splattered a White Mr Huey, a Charcoal Chalkboard mist and a Teel High Heel mist by Tattered Angels. Then I laid down some Gauche Alchemy washi tapes and Viva Las VegaStamps! rubber stamps.
I needed a good anchor for my photo, so grabbed a piece of my favorite May Arts Ribbon and my handy dandy Fabric Glue. Turn the ribbon over and lay a strip of glue across it, then press firmly to paper!
I distress some UmWowStudio chipboard and colored some DIY Thickers black. Then I layered my photo, flair from UmWowStudio, thickers, dymo label maker title, chipboard, Prima leaf and MME button. All have been adhered with Premium Craft Glue.
I had a ton of fun working in the Epiphany Crafts Oval tool and bubble caps! I knew from the beginning of the project that I wanted to stamp and layer it with the bubble. So after I had a few of my stamps in place on the background paper I made a decision and grabbed some white cardstock! I stamped the same image from the base on the white cardstock in archival black ink and placed it in my Epiphany Crafts tool.
Then I layered it with the bubble cap and punched it! It's been adhered down with Premium Craft Glue.
I REALLY love that it's not centered on the stamp, but has this superb small detail of a domed 3D gloss and sheen. It really flows well with the layout, and I'm really impressed by the quality and ease of use of the products. 2 thumbs up for Helmar and Epiphany Crafts!!
