Coastal Art Journal Background

 Hi everyone, Adriana here today on the Couture Creations blog with my art journal page created with the fabulous Couture Creations Alcohol Inks onto Synethic Alcohol ink paper - teamed  up with the SEASIDE GIRL collection - which is out now !!


I love creating in my art journal and this one I can add other pages to it, so I created a page with a photo of my darling daughter (a few years ago, we went to the Gold Coast, QLD, we loved walking on the beach.)

I have created a page - painting a background with the Couture Creations Alcohol Inks. I have a short video of my creating this project - It is so easy to do.
Adding some die cuts and images from the Ephemera set - and also using the STAYZ IN PLACE ink pad Chocolate Sprinkles around the edges with some of the stamp sets from this collection.

Seaside Birthday Cards

Today,  I made a set of cards using the wonderful Tina Ollett's SEASIDE GIRL Collection. 

These papers are so brilliant and beautiful, the papers are so thick - 200gsm paper stock which are perfect for all mixed media projects and also for distressing the paper. Using the small 6.5 x 6.5 paper pad from this collection, I made an easel card and a double fold card. The seagull bird dies in this collection are amazingly cute and great for my cards. Teamed up the Seaside Girl Ephemera set, for all those shells and lighthouse images. I also created the sentiments on the cards with the Sweeping Plains Diecut sentiment CO727981 set of the words "Best Wishes" and "Happy Birthday". They match perfectly with the Seaside Girl Collection.

Cherished Layout

 Hello everyone, It's Adriana here for today and I am sharing another scrapbooking layout using the BLOOMING FRIENDSHIP collection.. I have created a few pretty layouts with the collection but today I decided to create a masculine themed layout. Using some of the papers and the sticker sticker from the Collection pack.

The photo is of my nephew when he was about 2 years old.
I created the background by stamping with the the stampset from this collection - Background and borders stamp set. 

Cherished Layout by Adriana 






Using the cogs from the the sticker sheet which is included in the BLOOMING FRIENDSHIP Collection Pack CO728099. Adding some chipboard Cogs inked with Card Deco Bronze Pigment inks.


Adding a tag from the paper pad "YOU MAKE ME SMILE" sentiment is lovely.
Adding the word CHERISHED from the Ephemera packet.
Adding also the banners under the photo from the Sticker sheet.


Splatter of Alcohol inks - CO727887 Metallic Ice Blue around the background for extra texture.






Thanks for joining me today
Take care XX
