So I played it safe here and made my own papers using Cardstock, distress inks, stamps and embellishments.<br \/>\nI had a clear thought of the colors that I wanted to use which was to match with the ones in the pic to keep everything together. If you are beginner I would suggest play with 3 4 colors in you layout instead of many to keep the entire project together. I have added quiet a few layers of papers and every time have kept the colors same as the ones in pic.<br \/>\nFor the second layer I added some interest to the background by creating the punched effect and on the third layer I created the effect by splattering some water on the distressed paper. Then I have colored some scrap paper and stuck it to add some layers and depth to the project. At this point I realized my layout was too dark as it contained only blues and greys. Hence I decided to add some contrast and color by adding white to the project. Hence I have added some texture paste using stencils and used some clay molds as is without coloring it. Then I felt a need to add some black just to bring everything together hence added some black stenciled areas and black stamping. I have also added some splatter of pear white fevicryl paint to add some randomness.<br \/>\nFinally I have used chipboard alphabets and embossed them with silver embossing powder and stuck it to the layout.<\/p>\n<p>\nProducts Used &#8211;<br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.hndmd.com\/papers\/pads-and-sheets\/art-craft-white-exclusive-paper-pack-12-by-12-50-sheets-wep1250\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">12 by 12 cardstock<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.hndmd.com\/index.php?route=product\/search&amp;search=Distress%20Inks\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Distress Inks<\/a> (Black Soot, Iced Spruce, Salty Ocean, Faded Jeans, Chipped Sapphire, Peacock Feathers)<br \/>\nEK Success <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hndmd.com\/craft-supplies\/craft-punches?manufacturer=&amp;stock=7\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Punch<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.hndmd.com\/craft-supplies\/stencils?manufacturer=&amp;stock=7\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Stencil<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.hndmd.com\/craft-supplies\/molds?manufacturer=&amp;stock=7\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Clay Molds<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.hndmd.com\/daler-rowney-texture-paste-1-litre-128010017?search=texture%20paste\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Texture Paste<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.hndmd.com\/palette-knife-set-93-b?search=palette%20knife\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Palette Knife<\/a> <br \/>\nChipboard alphabets<br \/>\nSome gem stones <br \/>\nFevicryl acrylic paint<\/p>\n<p>Hope you liked the project and happy Crafting<br \/>\nKhyati<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hi Guys, I am back again with my favorite art form &#8211; Mixed Media.
