Shanna Layout

Good morning all you paper crafters out there. Shanna here today with a layout to share based on the current Gina's Designs Sketch Challenge for January.  Hurry and get your entries in for a chance to win the $10 gift certificate to the store.  Winners are chosen by drawing from eligible layouts.

I tried my hardest to stick to the layout. I didn't do any journaling though nor did I have three photos :( I am a one maybe two photos kind of gal). I did do a lot of matting and some mixed media though to keep it interesting. 

Here you can see my Gina's Designs chipboard piece which got a coat of gesso, spray, and more gesso.

This is a fun piece of Gina's Designs chipboard that got a coat of gesso, then some glass bead gel, and then sprayed and painted. 

Here is a close up of the beading!

Hope you are feeling inspired to pull out your chipboard pieces!!!
