2 Classic Dooreen Layouts - Explore & Remember the Moments

Explore

12” x 12” mixed media layout project

By Dooreen Rousseau

Cost - $22  Click HERE to order online, call the store 780-414-1540, or stop by 5218 - 86 Street NW Edmonton.

The layout is created using a monochromatic colour scheme.  I let the designer paper do most of the work. The photo works with the layout because of the colours, allowing a winter photo to be framed using warm fall colours.

Cardstock for matting, patterned papers, digi items, cut outs, are all included in the kit, complete with instructions and photos.

You will need: A favourite photo, Distress ink pad – Vintage Photo, White paint pen, black pen, Fussy cut scissors, Art Glitter Glue, scor tape and tape runner or UHU Foam tape
