Using Cut Outs As A Mask For Hybrid
Hey there! Katrina, aka katrinahunt13, sharing another hybrid layout with you. I am going to show you how you can use cut outs that you see in the shop for getting artsy on a hybrid layout. Now, I am the first to admit, I love “stuff” on my pages, but I don’t go toward the artsy side. After doing this layout, I think I may try it more!
I dove into the BYOC for February for this layout. I used the following kits: Hedge Hugs | Bella Gypsy Happy Hearts | Becca Bonneville Olive You Paper, Elements | Allison Pennington and finally Love Cut Outs | Scrapping With Liz.
I started by cutting out the LOVE file from my Cameo. After doing this, I realized that I am not limited by “what size the mask or stencil is that I bought” and I can make these any size I want!! How fun is that! I figured out where I wanted the cut out on my page and then used some removable tape to hold it in place.
Then I started painting over with some fun heavy body acrylic paints that I had picked up at the craft store on clearance.
I let this dry for a few minutes, because, well…I know me and I would have made a big mess if I hadn’t. And my bad, I totally forgot to take a picture after I pulled the cut out up! But while this was drying, I took the negative piece and finished out the circle so that I could add the pattern paper to that part of the cut out.
Then I trace the V and cut it out of another paper, then the fun began of embellishing. I started to only do the O and V, but then the “liking stuff” came into play and I ended up decorating all the spaces!
So, I had a little fun of trying something new, getting a little messy when I normally don’t and came up with an idea for resizing some things and using them down the line. I love when a plan comes together! Have a great week! And don’t forget to upload your hybrid projects to the gallery, we would love to see them!
