Mix it up!

Hey Paper Issues Friends!!!

 

I always love the inspiration on Mix It Up Monday! I am not usually a "messy"
 scrapper, but I love how everyone else's projects look. I never can get a background to look quite "right" but I think it is because I overthink it and try to perfectionist is, lol!

 

I wanted to play along using gesso and acrylic paint, but I wanted it to fit my style! So I made a background -first I applied gesso and let it dry. Then I used blue and white acrylic paint, and let that dry. Then, using a stencil, I applied gesso over the paint. I really loved the way it looked...but I didn't love it as a background!

 

So I cut my title out of it and used some scraps for layering!

 

I hope you get messy with us on Mix It Up Monday!!!
