{Remember Today} Watercolor Background | JustNick Studio Design Team

Hello crafty friends!

Last week, I shared a new layout on the JustNick Studio blog showcasing a watercolor background underneath one of her awesome cut files.

Take a look:




I love the look of the watercolors swirled together underneath the Heart Background 5 cut file, mixed with the patterned paper-backed hearts and the Scribble Hearts cut files. They create lots of dimension!


Watercolor or mixed media backgrounds do tend to warp the paper unless you prep with Gesso, but I also share a trick that will help with flattening the paper if you don't have Gesso or don't want to use it.  So head over to the JustNick Studio blog to read about it and see close-ups.

Thanks for stopping by today!!

Sunshine on my Mind - JustNick Studio Design Team {Combining Cut Files}

Hello everyone!

I hope you are having a great weekend.  Today I'm sharing a project on the JustNick blog where I show how I combined two different cut files on this layout using Simple Stories Sunshine & Blue Skies.  Take a look!


The word "Sunshine" comes from one cut file and the frame with sunrays is a different cut file. Head over to the JustNick Studio blog for details and close ups!

Thanks for visiting today.  Have a super August!
