Own your Story - Mixed media layout for 49 and Market DT

Hello Sweeties,

Today I'm up on 49 and Market blog with a new mixed media layout and a step-by-step video. I worked with a photo of Rose, one of the great-grandmothers of my children. She will be 100 years old this year.

Basic process:

1. Cut the journal Cards sheet into pieces;
2. Glue the cards on the background;
3. When happy, cover everything with clear gesso;
4. Add strips of the Essentials and Wedgewood washi tapes;
5. Add Wedgewood rub-ons;
   
   
6. Add some colors (blue and coral) to blend the collage with the background;
   
   
7. Prime some resin elements with black gesso;
8. Use waxes to color them.  Start with the Charcoal Black, then with Old Silver to highlight the details, and White Gold to add some nuance;
   
   
9. Cut a few cards from the 6x8 collection to add under the photo;
10. Build your composition and glue everything with 3D Matte Gel;
    
    
11. To finish add some glitter and microbeads.
    
    

I hope you will enjoy the video.
