''Wind beneath my Wings'' - With Alexandra Renke

Good morning, how are you? Wow time is flying by nearly the end of the month and not long to school holidays - which I am secretely waiting for, theres nothing better than spending days at the beach with the kids even when its cold.... hence my inspiration for this layout - last school holidays down at Margaret River - windy and cold as but perfect for a selfie with my girl. 

Perfect for Alexandra Renkes stunning paper - and a little bit of mixed media, moody background!!!

If you missed my earlier post on how to make the flowers you can find it here:

By making your embossing powder thick you can run it like paint also you can add things into it and they will stick....... like these Mylar Flakes.

Its easy to hand colour and custom your flowers to what ever you need, you can use any medium: ink, watercolour crayons, mist. The possibilities are endless.

I just use a baby wipe to apply the colour.... Why? I love the softer effect it gives to you.

Another way to customize your flowers is by adding things to the centers, also mix and match your dies to get different flowers. 

I hope this has inspired you to get creating your own Art Foam Flowers..... 

Till next time, have a creative day
