Abstract Scrapbook Layout for Scrap FX Australia with Video tutorial

- February 15, 2018

Hello everyone,

welcome to my new Design Team inspiration

for the Company: Scrap FX Australia.

Here is the link to the blog from Scrap FX: Blog

Scrap FX Australia is a chipboard company with high quality chipboards,

stamps, stencil and silhouette.

I made for the February month an abstract scrapbook layout on Kraft paper

in black and white.

What do I call abstract scrapbooking (ASB)?

Well, first of all there are NO 3D flowers on the layout but

chipboards, iron wire, sewing thread and as well cut photos.

For me the background work is the most important aspect of ASB

I see my abstract scrapbook page as a further processing of the photo.

In the best scene of the words: so the photographer and the scrapbooker stand side by side,

to create a work of ART together.

I create my ASB on monochrome paper, so that the background becomes more effective.

Just as when you will start painting on white canvas. I applied the colors with the

paletknife. Also you can use other mediums such as: modeling paste, crackle paste,

embossing powder etc etc etc.... Stencils or stamps can be used as tools.

Glitter, micro beads and art stones are a nice finish touch.

But anyway here is my layout...

I used:

13@arts clear gesso, Prima Marketing black gesso,

WOW embossing powder, Ecoline white,

Prima Marketing art stones, Powertex 3D balls,

Tacky glue, Ranger Heat Tool, LaBlanche flower stamp,

Posca white pen, Ranger ultra thick embossing powder in black,

7 Dots studio sticker, Ranger emboss it dabber, Unity stamp company stamp set keep wild,

Kraft paper 30 cm x 30 cm, decorative laces, black glass glitter.
