love, Phoenix layout

hi again!
I'm back on the Newton's Nook Designs blog, and today I'm sharing another scrapbook layout!


Love, Phoenix Scrapbook Layout by Samantha Mann for Newton's Nook Designs, Mixed Media, Watercolor, Stamping, Gesso, Stencil, Embossing Paste, scrapbook, #newtonsnook #scrapbook #layout #mixedmedia #sewing #diecuts #stamping #distressoxide

I love it!
I used the Cat-itude stamp set for my background! first I covered the white cardstock with gesso. once that was dry, I stamped the phrases over and over in various shades of Distress Oxides in blues. then I used some water to make the edges look watercolored!

it's a super neat effect! you can still see text come through, but it's abstract! 
once that was dry, I used some white embossing paste and the Hardwood Stencil to add texture!

I backed the photo with some white tissue paper, and a tag that I made with the Fancy Edges Tag Die Set!! 
then I used some old embellishments I have, and stitched together the title with my sewing machine! I also stitched the whole background to some black and whit patterned paper, too! I love that peaking out from the sides!

be sure to check out the layout on the Newton's Nook blog, too! 
enjoy!
