Creating Keepsake Mixed Media Blog Hop and Give Away

Hello again from Chicago. Today is opening day at CHA and I am taking a break from the madness to give away a copy of the latest special publication from Creating Keepsakes.

If you are familiar with my work you might not consider me a mixed media kind of girl but even us clean lines scrapbookers get a little messy from time to time. This wonderful special issue goes on sale today.

Open publication - Free publishing - More art mediums

I'd like to share with you a layout I did from the issue that shows off several different uses of mixed media type products. You might not be able to tell from the photos but the Corrugated alphas were painted to coordinate with the colors of my layout. Also I incorporated several metal elements like a binder clip from my office supply stash and I used a floral stick pin as a flag base. I also stamped and sprinkled lots of gemstones all over my layout.

(Supplies Used: Cardstock Bazzill, Patterned Paper Jillibean Soup, Corrugared Alphas Jillibean Soup, Stickers Jillibean Soup, Paint Making Memories, Tim Holtz Tiny Attacher, Stampin' Up Punch, Jillibean Soup/Unity Stamp, Versafine Black Ink, Misc gemstones, buttons Fancy Pants, Tags Jillibean Soup, Twine Jillibean Soup, Binder Clip, Floral Stick Pin, and font Verteran Typewriter downloaded from the internet)

To learn more about this special issue you can check out the bonus online content at Creating Keepsakes. Thanks for stopping by today to win your very own copy of this wonderful issue leave a comment on this post. Since I am at CHA you have all week to leave a comment for your chance to win. I will close the comments on Saturday 7/21.
