Pink Paislee GDT Layouts

Can you believe it? I am actually posting twice this week. And I've already scheduled a blog hop post for Thursday - so that will make three! I'm on a roll.

A couple of weeks ago, I was featured on the Pink Paislee blog as a guest designer. I love Pink Paislee. Rebecca and Barry are awesome people and the company is wonderful. I was on their very first design team, so it was fun to be back as a guest.

Here are two of the layouts that I created. They sent me the Luxe and Hope Chest lines. This first page uses some things from the Luxe collection.


I used one of the masks and added some Gesso to it to tone down the silver. Then, I cut circles from some of the papers.

 I added mistable hearts and a Silhouette die cut title. I matted it all on the silver chevron paper.

Instead of adding mist, I decided to go with a cleaner look and used some gems. I think this page pretty much sums up my love for Trader Joe's!

My next page uses a fun technique that I learned from the fabulous Wilna Furstenburg. (I want to be her when I grow up!)

 I started by mixing some gesso with a gel medium. Then I added glitter to it and spread it onto the page using a PP mask. When it was dry I spritzed it with spray ink. The frames behind the photos were cut from another PP digital cut file.
 I finished it off by spraying one of the mistables for my title.

I did a couple of other projects and will be back later to share those with you.
Thanks for stopping by!
