PSC#136 – Mixed Media Texture or Layers. This time we want you to challenge yourself to add a little more to your design. Whether you love layers or have a clean and simple style this month offers lots of possibilities.
1. Mixed Media – use more than one medium or material on your design. Some examples would be to use two or more of the following.. paint, markers, ink, texture paste, distress, stencil, fabric, ribbon, twine etc.
2. Texture – Add texture to a design by adding heat embossing, a dry emboss (folder) panel, texture paste with a stencil, fabric/ribbon etc.
3. Layers – Cut lots of layers and stack them for a fussy looking design!
Your project can be for any occasion, and you’re not limited to making cards. We welcome home décor, page layouts, tags and everything in between! It’s your choice, just be sure to use at least one Poppystamps die or stamp on your project! You must use a Poppystamps product to be eligible to win!
Meet our April guest, Annette Allen introduced by Design Team Member Jeanne Jachna.
I love Annette’s clean style. Even when she adds a stamped or stenciled background, she lets the images take center stage with no distraction. She has a fun, whimsical style making her project a delight to behold! She’s got lots of design team experience working with some of your favorite brands, and has been published in several magazines! I’m so excited to have her as our guest this month!
