Reasons To Smile Layout by Tonya Gibbs

Hi every, today I want to share a post that I created for Marion Smith Designs Creative Team Blog.  The design team will be doing tutorials all month, so please make sure to visit each day for some great new techniques and projects.

 

My project today is a mixed media layout that I created of my husband and I.  

 

 

 I used Marion's Garment District, Nirvana, and Junque & Gems line to create this project.

 

 

 

Here are a few close ups of the background,

 

 

 

 

 

Here is a step by step process video with all the details on how this layout came together.

Thanks for stopping in today,

Tonya
