"Hi! It's Agnieszka Bellaidea here with you today. 
I am very happy to have my own special day here on the SATW blog!

I have been scrapbooking for several years. 

I have the pleasure of designing for several producers from USA, Poland & Canada

 -  Bo Bunny, 13 arts & Magenta as well as Scrap Around The World too of course!

 In the past I have designed for Inkido /Papercraft Scandinavia, Wycinanka

 & Scrap FX as well as different challenge blogs, shops & kit clubs.

I like to mix a romantic style with a shabby touch & love messy mixed media.

I teach classes in layouts, canvas, OTP, albums, Project Life, cards & more.

I love blog friends & visitors so please pop in - I would love to meet you!"

1. First I painted my chipboard pieces with 2 coats of gesso.

2. Once the butterflies were dry I coated them with gel medium & sprinkled 

them with glass filler. I sprayed the corner chipboards with pink mist.

3. After an hour or two I applied more gel medium to the butterflies.

4. I then did some touch ups with ink, using pink ink on the

 corner piecers & yellow on one of the butterflies.

Let's take a look at some close-ups of this pretty page...

Using a variety of techniques on a page helps to create depth & interest.

For example textiles, stitching & stamping...

And a reminder of the finished page!

Here are the products Agnieszka used :-

SUPPLIES LIST

Gesso, Gel Medium & Glass Filler - 13 arts

There are so many ways to dress up chipboard. 

I hope I have inspired you to use glass filler & mists together for something unique

 & interesting!  The texture & shine they create together looks amazeballs!!
