On of the challenges was to use spray inks or paint. Spray Ink and me do not get along! I'm not sure why? It's not like I don't try but for some reason they don't like to co-operate. It could be too that I am too much of a perfectionist for spray inks and I to get along. Paint on the other hand is more controllable, hence why we get along! I found that my embellishments were lost in all the patterned paper so I used the paint to create backdrop for them and hence draw more attention to them.
The second challenge was to use woodgrains on a layout. I used them in 3 places! Can you see them? First one is the matting for my photos, the second is the title, and third is the woodgrain sticky back canvas ribbon. Pretty sneaky eh!

Very neat! I've only tried mists a couple times but I'm not convinced that they're worth the money they cost. I'm cheap and it seems like I have to use a lot to achieve the look I want. I have used paint a few more times and I can say that it's more my friend. Great layout!
