Hello! Kasia here today with a layout made completely with this month's main kit. When I looked through the kits items I knew they will allow me to create almost a monochromatic layout- I love making these! I thought it would be also a fun excuse to talk a bit about adding texture to your pages- when you cut on the colors textures pop and allow you to highligth details of your work!
Adding textures
will make your pages look more dimensional. The easiest way to do it is through
playing with layers. Try to use different materials- patterned paper, vellum,
book pages, cardboard or stickers- they are all paper but have different
quality so they will add lots of beautiful detail to your layout.
Another way to
add texture is using medias. Try to start with simple white gesso or acrylic
paint- you can paint with them, smudge over the layers on your page, stamp the
pattern you want- the thicker the paint the more texture will be visible on
your finished project.
Don’t
limit yourself with paper and medias- you can grab some other materials which
will build texture look- think of small enamel dots, thickers, cut files or
fabric- all or some of them layered on
the page will make a beautiful, textured details for your layout!
I hope you enjoyed these tips and will try with playing with textures on your projects! Have a fun day!
wow just wonderful !
