Mixed Media Memories!

Hello BoBunny Friends! Today I have a mixed media layout to share with you featuring the Heritage collection and lots of BoBunny stamps!

Memories Layout- Lisa Novogrodski

This layout features a photo of my grandfather along with his brother taken in the early 1900's. I love playing with my photos and staging them in different style layouts. I'm heavily into mixed media these days and worked up a grungy page with lots of mists, stamps and stencils. Mixed Media pages are as much about technique as they are the photo.

 First up I layered my papers with paper tearing techniques then blended the edges in with stamping. I stamped around the edges of the page and my inner papers using "To The Point" and "Stitches" stamps. I used the "Flutter" stamp all over my page in a mixed media way. Mixed Media is all about layering and stamps are a fun way to do this. Layering your stamps in a random way and then stamping over them creates interesting effects. You want to achieve the "Is it there or not there - Is that what I think it is" effect!

I love to use the Butterfly Stickable Stencils for my modeling paste. I usually use the inner design of them rather than creating a butterfly stencil.

One favorite technique I use is adding a little texture and medium to my photos to blend them into the page. I use my photos as another embellishment on my pages rather than the page being mainly about the photo.
