The day has finally come when I can share all of the highlights of your Shibori pages!
While we design this collection of pages each month to help you utilize all the contents of your kit, you're completely free to follow a different creative trail. Enjoy the process and make it your own!
Shibori Pages
LAYOUTS 1 & 2
These cute, little wrap-around tags provide the perfect spot for a small caption, title or date. Cut three small slots into the edge of the cutapart and slide the tags into the slots. Remove the backing and stick the rectangular ends together.
Add strips of the scalloped washi tape to your pages to help subdivide the space. The washi tape is also handy for holding your stencil in place while adding ink!
LAYOUTS 3 & 4
Loop canvas ribbon around the silver circular word charm to hold it in place on the page. Tape the trimmed ends of the ribbon onto the back of the layout.
LAYOUTS 5 & 6
With the help of a grid ruler, adhere a row of five equally-spaced 2" squares. Loop the ribbon around the silver charm and tape the ends onto the back of the layout. (Watch your video tutorial for more tips!)
Trim each line of text on the cutapart into individual strips and soften the edges with Sapphire ink applied with an ink applicator. Adhere the word strips to the page with CS® Bookbinding Glue applied with a needle-tipped applicator.
LAYOUTS 7 & 8
One of my favorite ways to add ribbon to a layout is to tie a simple knot and stretch the ribbon across a cutapart. Secure the ends on the back.
Add a decorative background to the 12x12 Sand Plain papers used as the base for this double page spread with the Shibori masking stencil. Temporarily place the elements onto the page to determine the best places to stencil. Use Sapphire ink and a CS® Ink Applicator.
Members, don't forget to access your video tutorial. I'll walk you through all the paper sorting, trimming, and filing. Next, we'll dry-fit the layouts together. All you have to do is adhere and add your photos!
