Hello friends! :) Today I want to share a short tutorial on how I created the background for this layout inspired by Sketchy Thursdays- using a toilet roll tube and some mists. :)
Step 1: Cut little "rings" from the toilet roll tube.
Step 2: Arrange the "rings" on base cardstock. Spray various mist colours.
Step 3: Remove "rings" for your very own custom background. :)
So doable, eh? :)
Supplies: Sassafras and Prima patterned paper, Heid Swapp chipboard, Sharpies, buttons, popsicle stick, baker's twine, American Crafts badge, Gauche Alchemy embellishments, doiley, transparency, ribbon and trim.
