This Is Me by Belinda Spencer

 Hello Bee Arty fans!

It's Belinda here with you today to share my layout created for Bee Arty inspired by the August Sketch Challenge.

Here's a reminder of the awesome sketch:

I chose to work with the stunning Grateful Heart Collection for my layout.

I cropped a sheet of the Grateful Heart Love patterned paper and mounted on a sheet of the fabulous 350gsm white cardstock. I spritzed the page with water and added Road Base Colour Spray. I spritzed with a bit more water and played around with the ink on the page. I used a paintbrush to help spread the colour on the page and also flicked some of the colour over the surface. Then I set it aside to dry.

Once my page was completely dry, I added some stamping using Jet Black Ranger Archival Ink with the Bokeh Stamp. I also added stencilling using Stormy Weather Colour Paste with the Circulate Stencil.

Once the Colour Paste was dry, I added my layered, cropped patterned papers according to the sketch. 

I die cut some leafy stems using the Autumn Trio Metal Die from the Embrace Change Collection. I did a whole lot of fussy cutting using the gorgeous elements from the Grateful Heart Gathers and Collection Bonus sheets.

Thanks so much for stopping by the blog today. I hope you find some time to play along with the August Sketch Challenge too.

Cheers

Belinda
