Seaside Cottage and Tranquility collections with video by Wilma Voermans

So happy to show you two layouts with the new Seaside Cottage collection.

It was a last minute, since I just got my papers in, but I managed .

Scrapbooking is a great hobby to  relax after busy days at work :) 

My first choice of the collection is this SUPER background paper.

It is the B-side from the Mermaid paper.

The Seaside collection has a lot of great background papers for more masculine pages.

And the boys have to be scrapped too .

I am not sure or I  did it ever before, 

but I found out that alcohol ink is perfect for coloring chipboard.

It dryes quick, covers in one time and gives a beautiful mat finish.

Besides that it soakes into the chipboard ,  so the sides are colored too.

In the background I used Gold embossing powder and two  colors alcohol ink.

If I may say so myself...LOVE IT 

Chipboard that I used:

Celebration heart

XOXO set

Ornate frame

Number Grid small

The second layout I made is also from the Seaside Cottage collection.

Its called Gala.

And yes, also the B-side..

I just love that paper with the Italian map image and the beautiful old color rosa.

The ornate frame was first embossed with oatmeal.

After that I brushed it with distress ink which was the right color for me.

I gave it a quick spray with a sealer to make the ink stay.

In the background I used Ginger embossingpowder

My last layout is made on a pattern paper from the Tranquility collection.

I can explain what I did, but it is much easyer to watch the video I made .

A start to finish process video.

I hope you find the time to watch it here:
