A Wedding Layout with Sandi ~ Creative Embellishments

Hello, Creative Embellishments friends and fans! 

Sandi here with you today sharing a wedding layout featuring some of my favorite Creative Embellishments products. 

(Papers and mediums are all 13 Arts.) 

I loosely based my layout on an old "Sketchabilities" sketch that I liked and chose some 13 Arts Rosalie papers that seemed fitting for this photo of my niece and her husband from their wedding. They are celebrating 5 years already! 

First I painted my 2 chipboard pieces with Old Silver Paint and let them dry. While they dried, I applied clear gesso to my already distressed papers and dried that with the heat gun. Then I added some stenciling with modeling paste and the Flourish Stencil 3. 

I had already drawn off where my focal area would be, so I went ahead and added Pink Chalk mist using the transfer technique. I wet the ink with a water mister for more subtle coverage. 

Next it was a simple matter of adding my embellishments.

The Infinite Circle Frame is one of my all time fave CE chipboard frames.  It is simple enough that it can go a variety of ways from masculine to romantic and beyond. I like how the Old Silver paint gives it a bit of metallic shine.

The Lacy Border is a newer piece and WOW, it is a beauty! 

You can use it unaltered or glam it up all you want. 

It is stunning either way.

This was my first time using the Flourish Stencil 3. 

It is really pretty but again, very versatile. 

I amped it up by highlighting it with a vibrant pink mist. 

Lastly, I splattered white gesso over everything and dabbed it on my embellishments for blending. 

Tuck in a bit of gauze and you are good to go! 

Thanks for coming by today. 

See you next time. 

Sandi
