International Scrapbook Garden: Hero

Without further ado, this is my very first DT post with the brand new kit club, the International Scrapbook Garden.

If you have ever wanted to play with papers from Europe, Australia, etc . . . check it out!!!! I am on the 'Toolshed Kit' design team, which is more masculine oriented. There are three kits to currently choose from, the other two being much brighter and feminine.

I aslo specifically made this layout for the Scrap The Boys challenge - fathers. This layout is about my dad and his grandson (my nephew). They are two peas in a pod. The little guy LOVES his Grampy and will spend all his time with him when him and his mother come to visit. Grampy is rough around the edges, retired military, and has a brisk and direct way of speaking to people. My little nephew just loves it all. Grampy is most definitely his hero.

I have only dabbled in mixed media. This layout reflects a couple hours of
watching YouTube videos and playing with the supplies from the kit.

I used KaiserCraft charcoal mist on the the frame. Then went around
and sparringly added 13Arts Vivid Yellow acrylic paint.

This is a combination of spray mists, acrylic paint, stamping,
distressing and a die cut!!!

Supplies:

White Gesso
Background stamp from stash
Silhouette Cameo - title
