"Dad & Patti" Layout {May Challenge} by Helen Tilbury






Hi everyone!  HELEN here again with you today, to share my take on the May Mood Board.
Just because it is "Beachy" doesn't mean you have to tackle it that way if you don't have any
beach photos on hand like me!  I had this photo already printed & needing to be scrapped
& I thought it would be perfect for these colours so I was inspired in this way rather :)



I used quite a selection of pretty Inkido papers {see the listing at the bottom
 of my post} as well as an array of Inkido flowers too, a lovely grungy stamp,
 some leaves & some confetti bling.  All from Inkido!


Inkido papers are perfect for mixed media as they are nice & strong
 & perfect for tearing, punching, distressing & inking up!


They also take stenciling with mediums really well.  
Here I used hard modeling paste which I then sprinkled with 
embossing paste to change the colour to match the board.


My Inkido flowers were brown & cream so I misted up the
 cream ones & used chalk ink to add the brown edges.


I always twirl the stems of the mini roses around my awl to add a tendril!


A banner design always adds a vintage look & is easy to cut free-hand.


I hope my project has inspired you to create with Inkido today! 
 If you are not local to Scandinavia you can buy Inkido products online
 at The Flying Unicorn HERE.  They ship all over the world at actual postal costs!!

See you all again in June, with a video tutorial too!!!
