Next up we have Rachelle Minett's layout, once again using lots of Ken Oliver Colour burst products...

Rachelle has also provided you with a bit of a step by step for her layout.

Products Used:
Stamps - Bo Bunny "Stitches", MME - "the sweetest thing"and "Find your wings", Pink Paislee - "Butterfly garden" and "Parisian Anthology", Prima - "Rust and Dust"
Texture Paste with TCW - Mini circles template
Prima Flowers
Kaiser flowers
Chipboard flourish - Corner Swirl  
Ken Oliver Color Bursts - Alizarin crimson, Fushia, Tangerine and Lemon yellow

 Here are a few step by step photos of Rachelle's Layout using the Ken Oliver Color Burst powders...
 Start by stamping your images onto plain white cardstock using a waterproof ink

Using a plastic palette container add water and a few puffs of the Ken Oliver Color burst powder until you are happy with the colour depth. Paint onto the stamped images - let them dry, then cut them out.

These are the colours that Rachelle used

To create the background, spray water over Bazzil swiss dot cardstock. Using a paint brush paint the colours onto the background - the water will help the colours the blend and move around. Tilt the cardstock up and down to help the colours the spread, add more colour and water if needed. If you need to add more intensity, simply add some extra colour puffs directly the the background and let it also spread. If there is too much water, just dab off the excess with a paper towel. Continue to build up the colours until you are happy with the look. It will look heaps better when it dries.

 Don't be afraid to simply add more water and colour if needed.Every background will be totally different - that's the fun part!!

 Once dry, add your texture paste and other cut out elements....
 

 We hope you like the Design team creations and are a little inspired to have a go yourself with these gorgeous colours:) 

 Happy Scrapping from the Scrapping Outback Team!
