Featured Educator - Riikka Kovasin - Quick & Easy Background Technique Tutorial

Hello to all our Scrap Around The World readers!
Here's hoping you all had a wonderful Christmas & that
 you are looking forward to 2014 - just around the corner!!

We are SO pleased with how many entries we have

received already for Zanka's fantastic December 
mood board -  bearing in mind what a busy time it
 is for most of us over the holiday season.  Don't 
forget to LINK UP SOON as we have some really 
cool prizes to be won & ONLY 4 MORE DAYS left!

See our current challenge {below} HERE.

Before 2013 comes to a close we have an exciting
 & inspiring video tutorial to share with you from
 DesignTeam member Riikka Kovasin from Finland.

If you don't know Riikka's work YOU SHOULD - she
is the IT girl of the scrapbooking world right now!!
Riikka has put together a video showing the clever
 background technique used on her December page.

As Riikka says :- "It's an easy way to add texture to a page
 & use up those last letter stickers in a pack - all you need 
area few simple supplies - letter stickers {alphas}, gesso, an 
old credit card/palette knife, mists or other colouring medium."

I love quick, effective videos & this one is just over 2
 minutes!  BRILLIANT!! Fabulous techniques Riikka,
 LOVED seeing your background come to life!
