I love the palette. Such gorgeous colours all together. Would be perfect for the blokes in your life, but I couldn't help myself with lots of flowers and a layout about myself. Eeeek. What's my mantra? Get IN your scrapbooks!
I created my own 'ribbon' by colouring/painting some Prima tape with coloured texture paste, and once it had dried I then added more colour to the texture paste (yes that right, you can colour it too!) and used a Prima stencil to get lots of dots all over it.
This is what the tape looks like when you buy it from Prima.
It's a really fun technique and could be applied to anything. Paper, doilies, flowers. Whatever you can paint over.
And that blue above, is a texture gel which I've coloured with the same paint, just less of it. And of course I've used a gorgeous Prima stencil to create that cool design.
