Olga's June Kit Projects and Mixed Media Layout Tutorial

Hello everyone! Olga here with you today. I want to share the layouts I created with the June Kit. I also have a mixed media layout tutorial to share!

I made a page about the wonderful and long-awaited summer.


I chose a piece of paper - Blue Fern Studios "Friperies" - and applied acrylic gel to the portion of the page that will be painted in the next step.


I applied texture gel over a stencil onto the dry acrylic gel. Then, I seletced a few favorite colors of alcohol inks for a bright background.





After I finished coloring the paper with alcohol inks, I added decoration - flowers, lace, a photo, cut out paper flowers and tangled threads. I added stamping with archival black ink and Rub-On Transfers to the background.



I used Glossy Accents to attach sequins and Kaisercraft Pearl Brads to the page.


I used acrylic gel to brush on the very beautiful lavender Glitter from C'est Magnifique. It is absolutely stunning and adds a tender and delicate glow. I love it!


The final part of the work - splatters of mist and alcohol inks and ink on the edges of the paper with Distress Ink. I also added Alphabet Stickers from the Prima Sticker Sheet.



I also made two pages in the same style as the first.





Thank you for your attention! I hope you find this tutorial inspirational! I have really enjoyed playing with this kit! If you are interested in the June Kit or Add-Ons a limited amount of kits are available for purchase from the C'est Magnifique Store while supplies last!

Evelyn's June Kit Projects

Hi all, it's Evelyn here today with my projects for June created with the June kits. The kits for June are soooo gorgeous, I loved, loved, loved working with them! The papers from the Blue Fern Déjà Vu collection are just beautiful and all the goodies in the Magnifique Mixed Media Kit, the Flower and the Embellishment Add-Ons are great to work with.

For my first layout I used the Main Kit and the Flower Add-On.

Photo: Gecko Galz, Materials from my stash: Gesso, Alcohol Ink, Stamps, Ink, Mists, Butterflies


Look at these gorgeous flowers! I really love them.



The next layout shows my son. I really love to see him smile.
I used the Main Kit, the Magnifique Mixed Media Kit, and the Flower and Embellishment Add-Ons.
from my stash: Gesso, stamps and inks, threat, chipboard, distress paint and embossing powder, black pen

Again the flowers - aren't they lovely?


Here you can see the Prima Elementals Weaving Stencil from the Mixed Media Kit. I used it with Distress Ink.


The heart and the wings are included in the Mixed Media Kit too. It's the Prima Stamp-N-Add Angel Wings. You also can see the "waterdrops," they are made with the Faber-Castell Design Memory Craft Clear Texture Gems. I love them!


Here you can see the Prima Art Ingredients Granite Mica Flakes from the Mixed Media Kit. They look so cool!


For this flower cluster I used a part of the Coats & Clark Yellow Zipper from the Embellishment Add-On. You can see another part of it behind the photo.


One of the Prima Welcome to Paris Metal Stick Pins I used on the main flower cluster. They are included in the Embellishment Add-On too.


For the third layout I used one of the sentiments from the Paper House Colorways Seek Beauty Rub-On Transfers included in the Main Kit. Unfortunately, you can't see the silver shimmer on the photo. It's beautiful! Behind the sentiment you see the American Crafts Butter Rose Ribbon. It's so elegant!
from my stash: Gesso, stencil, stamps and ink, mists
I took the Single Large Yellow Rose and colored it with mists. I also used the Prima Rebecca Mini Bouquet. Both from the Main Kit.


For the background, I used the beautiful Prima Say It In Pearls Butterfly Swirls from the Mixed Media Kit, and of course flowers from the Main Kit and the Flower Add-On.


That's it from me today. I hope you like the projects!

Don't miss the fabulous projects of the other DT girls and of course the Sketch Challenge at the first of June, where I have one more layout with video for you (my own favourite this month)!

Thank you for visiting! The June Add-Ons and the Mixed Media Kit are available for purchase now from the C'est Magnifique Store. The June Main Kit will be available on May 31st.
