Designer Inspiration - Lisa Pate - Cutting it up

Hello Everyone!!

Happy to be back sharing another layout.  This month I received the gorgeous March Kit.  It's full to the brim of beautiful colour and lovely patterns.

 I couln't wait to get started.  I pulled it all out and the black cardstock was calling my name.  I don't usually use black so it was fun to use something a little different.  After creating my background using gesso and thick embossing powder, I didn't want to cover it all up.  So what's a girl to do??

CUT IT UP!!!

I took my scissors and cut into the papers and the stickers, took what I wanted a left the rest behind for another day.  I grabbed little snippets of colour and design and added them in.  Then stitched it all together.

 

Hopefully I've inspiraed you think outside the square a little and start chopping into your papers and embellishments.
