August 2024 - Challenge #2 Black and Yellow Background

It's time for challenge #2. This month's Inspiration kit was full of contrast. I want you to create your own black and yellow background paper to use on a project.   I hope I see some mixed media!!!

Guest Designer - Sarah Rouault got a little messy with her background paper and I love it! Here is her project!

Sarah used washi tape and black paint to create her bright and bold stripes! Such a beautiful layout!

Now, let's see what our Master Forgers created:  

Master Forger JoJo

JoJo created this background by using a yellow gold textured paste through a hexagon

stencil on a black cardstock paper. Then she applied 3 strips of washi tape and lots of 

cute embellishments to show case her bee photos.

Master Forger Christine

Christine took a different turn and used stamps. She may have been a bit daintier than a full mixed media background, but made up for it by using some black and white papers on a yellow background.  Does her entry qualify??

Here's the full layout (peep the stamped bees in the upper left)

Here's a closer look at those adorable bees.

A shaker pocket made its way onto the page too!

Master Forger Tina

 

Used a yellow paper, stencil and some Black Soot distress ink  to create here background

From that created paper she created this layout
