How To Alter Your Scrapbook Layout Background

Hello BoBunny fans!

Emmy here today sharing a brand new layout I've created using the amazing Family Heirlooms collection from BoBunny's newest release. This post comes with a short tutorial on how I am altering my background paper and what products I use in the process. I hope you will enjoy it!

How to alter your background paper:

Step 1: Using a sponge dauber cover the middle part of the patter paper with a see through layer of gesso to soften the color. Let it air dry.

Step 2: Mark the position of your picture on the background paper with a pencil. Using clear stamps and black ink create your design around it. Let it air dry. 

Step 3: Once the ink has dried, add a shimmering layer using glitter paste and a stickable stencil. Let it air dry. 

Once your are satisfied with your background paper, continue to arrange your design.

To decorate my page I used fussy cut images and pre-cut embellishments from the Noteworthy pack matching the collection.

I also added die-cut embellishments, stickers and chipboard stickers.

As a final touch I added rhinestones, shimmering brads and rhinestone flourishes.

I hope I managed to inspire you today!

Have a wonderful creative week!
