A few good men

A few good men
Hello friends! This week's challenge at Scrapping the Music is up! It's the song "Feelin good" by Nina Simone. My layout, A few good men, features my father's entourage on his wedding day....


Some handstitching around the photo...


Some masking and misting...I took some photos during the process so I made a short tutorial to share...:)


What you require is a box/container for your cardstock (so that the mist doesn't go all over the place), a mask and mists... (I prefer Maya Mists because the colours are intense and dry almost instantly)


 Adhere the mask to the cardstock and start misting! I used a light blue first...

Then added yellow...


Remove the mask and you have a lovely design on your base cardstock. Try it out! :)

    I'm always afraid to use this technique, but now I think I will try it once, it is gorgous, the misting the colors the stitching, wonderful lo.
    Enjoy your weekend!
