Mini from Junk Mail and Packaging with video instructions

This was a mini I made live at Create Scrapbooks show if you weren't there HERE is the direct link for the recorded show.
I used the Little Red  Scrapbook May kit that came with papers from October afternoon. They were bright so I 've used a technique to make them not so bright.
Other things I've used

 So, I hope you enjoy the show and participate on our next one, The weather is fantastic here so we are going to show Lucas the pool for the first time, I hope he doesn't get afraid.

And it has been a very happy weekend for me after 10 years finally I got Brazilian channel at my house, Thanks for to Verizon Fios, it was so easy and not satelites involved and changing for Verizon has been so far a great experience for us.

My husband doesn't like the channel I don't like some things also, but listen a little of Portuguese is not bad sometimes :)

I hope you have a great Memorial Day Weekend !

Clear 10x10 Layout with paint Tutorial

I showing a tutorial using a 12x12 Acrylic Sheet from Clear Scraps. First I cut the page to a 10x10.

Spread some acrylic paint of your choice. Let it Dry

Use Stencils to do marks on your page.

And Stamps , you have to use staz on here I'm using the Staz on O Paque
The Stamp is from Unity Stamps.

Here is the end result after that you have to spray a coat of fixative.

Lay your papers. Embellish your page.

Here shows that I'm hiding the journaling.

So you try some of this Clear Acrylic pages they are very fun to work with.
