Using up your stash with tips & Techniques - By Alison Callcott
Tips/Techniques
* When using bold sections of patterned papers, using papers from the same range will help them blend and contrast more effectively.
* Paint and sand your embellishments to help them stand out against the bold patterned paper.
* Keeping your paint and embellishment palette confined to just a few co-ordinating colours will prevent the LO from appearing over done.
* Twill is a great alternative to ribbon when creating a heavily distressed looking LO.
* Create your own ‘dictionary definitions’ for the words you want. Printing them on acetate enables them to be layered over other elements, in this instance the photo.
