Tutorial Saturday with Jan

8:30 AM | Posted by Unknown | | Edit Post

Hello, Swirly scrappers!

Today I will be sharing a layout made with the scraps of the August kit. Literally, I just used the paper scraps on my desk to make the background-no cutting. I dare you to try it!

So, here's the layout. I shared it during my August kit reveal but had some technical difficulties with the video itself. I am sorry for annoying you with the malfunction.

Here's a few close-ups.

And, here's the video tutorial. I would love to see you try this!

Tattered Angels Mistable Paper

6:00 AM | Posted by Andiepants | | Edit Post

Water color paper is big in scrapbooking and mixed media right now. So it's only fitting that Krissy included two pieces of Tattered Angels Pure Mistable papers in our tech kit this month with the gelatos. These papers feel phenomenal!! They are gorgeous and so much fun to work with. Here I show you how gelatos, Glimmer mist, and Dylusions all reacted with the paper.

Thanks for stopping by and have a GREAT weekend!!

How Big of a Paper Hoarder Are You?

11:29 AM | Posted by Andiepants | | Edit Post

It's Saturday and that means it's time for another technique video here at Swirlydoos. This week I show you how to turn your gelatos into a mist and create a background with them that actually mimics papers in the kit this month! Why would anyone want to do that?! So that we can hoard the actual papers silly!!!

I adore the Sunrise Sunset collection but could not bring myself to use an entire piece to cover up in the background. Instead, I used gelatos to create the faded and grungy effect that I love so much.

So now that I've aired my dirty laundry it's your turn. Come over to the forum and share your most SHAMELESS paper hoarding story/habit.

Another way to use Gelatos is to paint with them. Here I focused on a flower I created using Stazon ink, gelatos, and the Lindy's mint color that cam in the kit. Make sure that if you are coloring with water based products your stamped image is stamped in ink that is NOT water based. The fly and postage are rub on's from the kit as well.

Here I took a closeup of the edge of the paper. You can see where I stamped as well over my background using the Gelatos.

Here's a closeup of the upper corner.

And here's the video where I created this background!

Using Gelatos as a mist and other Gelato techniques

Hope you give these techniques a try!!!

Happy Saturday all!!
