Some exciting news in my inbox today.....I have two layouts published in this months Scrapbook News and Review Magazine and a 'Back to School' layout in "Ready, Set, Create!" magazine.
A few months ago I showed you this layout, and promised to do a masculine version as a personal challenge. Here's the girly version....

I distressed and layered my papers, and spritzed them with Glimmer Mist over the Tim Holtz barbed wire mask. The vellum was embossed and laced with string. I used metallic objects, and Magic Mesh (coloured with Stazon to make it look rusty) on the layout to give it a masculine feel. The cogs were cut using a Tim Holtz die, and smeared with some Smooch ink and Distress Stickles.
