What's Up Wednesday with Ro Philippsen

Today I have sharing with you, a collage tutorial!

1 - First I cut squares of various patterned papers. I used four different papers of the amazing Lilybee Design, that you can find at the A Million Memories on line store. Each square measures two inches.




2 - Then I drawing a border 1,75 inch from the outside of my 12x12 cardstock, with a pencil.




3 - Now I glue each square of patterned paper to my background, like on the picture.




4 - On the squares already glued I spent a very thin layer of Handicraft acrylic Primer. I could also use gesso or just white acrylic paint.




5 - To spread the acrylic base, I used a sponge brush, because the result is much better. See the result:




6 – And now I add my photo, title and some embellishments, and viola. Here is my page:
