Ann-Christin Larsen

 

A Norwegian girl from Oslo, I go by the name of Lula, but my real name is Ann-Christin. I love to be a part of a team, both at work and with scrapping. In the daytime I am a kindergarten teacher which I LOVE! In the night I try to get some sleep. ;) I want to do everything, so the days has too little hours! I have been scrapping since 2007 but these days  i do not find the time to be that creative than before, but i hope soon... To be a part of Prima is a huge dream!

Me Layout

In my daily work I have to be structured and often I am so busy that you forget the real you. I made a page about who I really am; colorful, playful, and a little crazy. ~Ann-Christin

Monkey Layout

by Educator Nic Howard

 

Tips & Techniques:

Looking closely at Nic’s layout you may be able to see subtle stamping of words around her photos.  Nic had used texture paste with Prima Masks earlier in the creation of her layout, forming a very textured background. 

To enable her to be able to have those words on top of the super textured background she used the stamps with a solvent ink such as Stazon onto clear transparency (or clear packaging!), she then cut the images out and used them on her page.  The small floral frame around her title is also created the same way.

Glory Canvas

by Designer Erin Blegen

 

I decided to apply this month's BAP sketch to a 12"x12" stretched canvas, as a partnering piece to another Fall canvas project I created recently. The sketch worked great for my Fall trees double photo. I like the idea of a neutral, "deadened" scene comprised mostly of browns and creams- with just a hint of color. 

As those of us who live in a place where Fall transitions into winter, we know all too well that it takes the colors with it! ~Erin

 Wonderful Journey

by Designer Keren Tamir

 

"I turned the sketch 90 degrees because I wanted to create flow down the side of the page, using some mists. I framed a picture of my daughter at the beach using one of the Prima resin frames. I just love combining turquoise and teal colours as they are my favorite. I also used one of my favorite masks again to create ocean waves in the background." ~Keren

Right Now

by Designer Kasia Tomaszewska

 

When creating the layout for this month's BAP I was focused on all the little things I like and enjoy right now. I quickly jotted them down on one of the journaling cards.

.

The composition of the page was a great excuse to use lots of small embellishments and stickers which add fun details and texture to the layout. ~Kasia

Tappy Love

by Sam Ho

.

I love this month's BAP sketch and I was inspired by the circle and stitching elements on the sketch. So I cut out a number of circles from the patterned paper (All About Me collection) and added them around the photo.

.

I stuck to the sketch closely, but I swapped the layout to host a single photo layout. I like using a sketch because I could build a page under an hour allowing me to just squeeze a layout during my baby's nap time. ~Sam
