Sharing my homework...Wilna's Art And Design Class

This class was one of my favorite classes related to scrapbooking that I have ever taken! For any one that missed the original run of it on Big Picture Classes old website, she is now offering it in her shop, iheartstudio . I felt it was well worth the cost of admission, just for the cut files, much less the wonderful inspiration and instruction! Here are a few more of my pages inspired by the class, click on "Wilna's Art and Design" in my category tab to see more:

I fussy cut the "Primeval Whirl" title from an actual photo that I took of the sign. I painted the smear across the page with Gelatos, and the "Awesome" was a cut file from the class. I know that every time I use Gelatos, I think of Wilna, and her videos for 2Peas, because I never would have discovered them if not for that.

A couple of embellishment close ups:


The "windows were also a cut file offered up in the class, and I had such fun scrapping once forgotten photos from my honeymoon, and filling the grid up with little bits of loveliness from a past counterfeit kit, such as these fun stamped and painted mixed media embellishments:


I love the tiny textured treasures on this page. The stamped cork and canvas really adds a fun bit of texture to the page!

In Like A Lion...

Out like a lamb? I wonder if the old adage will hold true for us, as march has definitely come in like a lion, with the snow and ice last week, and the rain that is pouring down outside now!  Although I do think it is hard to get motivated to exercise or clean when the weather is bad outside, I do feel motivated to scrap! I started in to my March Counterfeit kit, and here is my first page:

I was inspired by this sketch from Stuck Sketches (I just rotated it to suit me):
It is not a page that requires a title or journaling, just pretty pictures from the beach that I wanted to include in my album. I used some of the cork pieces, some die cuts, some off cuts from the 6x6 pad, wood veneer that I colored by scribbling on them with the orange Gelato, then blended it/rubbed it in with my finger, a handful of the sequins, one of the doilies, and one of the flair badges.

A closer look at the details:
