Rob & Liz's Blessed Adventures

Hi Lovelies, Today I'm showing you inside the wonderful, magical, beautiful Helen Hollands Art Journal! Such lucky little people you are! If you don't know who Helen is, she is our fabulous Mixed Media instructor and creates stunning Art Journal Pages, Mannequins, Albums and many other creations! This page was taught recently in our weekly Art Journal Techniques class and featured Dina Wakley's 'Scribbly Birds' stamp! Helen has used soft, muted blue and green tones in her page which just look stunning! However, there is always the freedom to experiment and try your own thing in Helen's classes which we will show you further on... To create this gorgeous background, Helen has used a tissue paper base with an opaque crackle paint and a selection of pigmented paints.

Hi Lovelies,  With only a few days left till our final Mega Scrap for the year,  I thought I might tease you with a few sneak peek photos  from these STUNNING layouts!

I can't take my eyes off them. Look at this stunning chipboard accent with a beautiful layer of shimmery glitter. Our Mega Scrap Classes often sell out right away, so if you're...

Hi Lovelies, What says Spring more than loads of beautiful butterflies, adorable little birds and wispy ferns?  Not much I don't think. These beautiful images come from Helen's Double Layout Class featuring 'Vintage Artistry' by 49 and Market. The collection is just stunning and Helen has truly done it justice by turning it into a wonderful double page creation! Helen used a lovely chipboard sentiment from Celebr8's collection 'Good Vibes'. A finishing touch of Glossy Accents was added to the chipboard and fussy-cut butterflies. This style of layout is the perfect way to use up all your left over pieces of paper, ribbon cut-offs and anything else you could think of! Sounds great to me! Helen created this adorable pocket from some of the Vintage Artistry embellishments. It could be used purely for decorative purposes or the perfect little place to store keepsakes and letters. The various layers of paper, hessi...
