Celebrate - with Belinda Spencer

 Hello Scrapping Clearly fans!!

It's Belinda here today to share my latest project for Scrapping Clearly featuring lots of awesome products from the store. Today I have a layout to share with you inspired by the gorgeous November Mood Board.

'Celebrate'

Here's a reminder of the stunning colours of the mood board:

This was such a fun layout to create starting with an explosion of colour on my background using the awesome Distress Oxides from Tim Holtz. I love the Oxides so much that I try to use them on everything!!

Here I pressed the ink pads onto a piece of plastic as some of the other DT have done (I had to try it for myself!!) I spritzed it with water and then pressed onto the page lightly. I dried the page in between each colour. I also picked up some of the colour from the plastic with a soft wet paintbrush and flicked it over the background.

Next I added a layer of stamping using the same colour Distress Oxides and the stunning Mandala Tapestry stamps by Art By Marlene as well as Vicki Boutin Kaleidoscope Clear Stamps.

I also used the sentiment stamps from the Vicki Boutin set with the Distress Oxides and stamped them around the central area.

Next I added some Heidi Swapp patterned papers that I had die cut using the Kaisercraft Nesting Pennants Dies and some Heidi Swapp Ephemera on top of some messy cotton thread..

Finally I added my photo as well as the title and other embellishments.

Here's what I used:
