Don't Let Go

Don't Let Go

This is a bit of a mix up for me as I've not really tried mixed media before.  I didn't really intend to do mixed media it just 'sort of' happened.  I ended up glueing my paper onto some scrap cardboard as until then it did not have the 'structural integrity' to hold up to the sewing and whatnot.

I've had lots of fun playing around with bits and pieces and slapping on paint and mist.  I just sort of went with the flow and saw what happened.  Let me know what you think!

I put the layout together with the help of Colour Stories Inspiration challenge #143 (below)
Scrap it with a Song Pop challenge - Demi Lovato's - Let it Go
I used the title of the song to inspire my title of Don't Let Go

 

Colour Scheme: All colours used

Evidence: Mixed Media, Pen Work, Cogs and Circles.

Testimony: Handwrite your story

I didn't use the sketch ahove - instead I used the one below from Show Us Your Stuff as inspiration. I rotated the sketch 90 degrees.

Head Over Hills - Scrap it with a Song

It's February and they're in the mood for love over at Scrap It With a Song. They've got a whole month of romantic tunes to add to the playlist and spark some creativity in your scrapbook. 

The third offering this month is Head over Heels by Tear for Fears.

  

I used the lyrics 'head over heels' and changed it to 'head over hills' as the photo is of my husband and myself on our first wild-camp on a hill called Yeavering Bell in Northumberland.

See what I created below

Head over Hills

I stamped (Ranger - Dylusions - Background Love - Swirls Stamp) onto bazzill basics cardstock with Versamark ink and used clear embossing powder then inked around the edges.

There are hearts all over this layout.
