Welcome back scrappy friends. Tracy<\/a> here, and today I am sharing some tips and tricks in creating simple mixed media layouts and my go-to adhesives.<\/p>\n

I love to dabble in mixed media. Sometimes I add some simple splatters, ribbon and dimensional embellishments, like in this layout. But others, I like to play a little more and get messy. Either way, here are some adhesive tips.<\/p>\n

\"Mixed<\/p>\n

First, I created a simple background for my layout. Then added the ribbon border using Extreme Double Sided Tape 1\/2″<\/a>, it will adhere ANY of your favourite ribbons or trims. I used again to attach the corrugated cardboard on top of the lace.<\/p>\n

Then the next 2 patterned paper layers were added using Crafty Foam Tape<\/a>, for just a little added dimension. I triple matted my photo, adhering the layers together using my\u00a0E-Z Runner\u00ae Grand Refillable Dispenser<\/a>, and added Creative Photo Corners Ivory<\/a> to the photo. I adhered the matted photo to the layout using Crafty Foam Tape<\/a> again.<\/p>\n

Just in case you didn’t know, I love to create handmade flowers. Once stamped, die cut and shaped I used Adhesive Dots Mini<\/a> to assemble the flowers. One of my favourite things to use as flower middles is beads. To do this I use the Dual Tip Glue Pen<\/a> and add a big gob of liquid adhesive in the middle of the flower, then add beads and let dry. Once dry, I then used Adhesive Dots Medium<\/a> to adhere them to the layout. I used the Adhesive Dots Mini<\/a> again for adding my buttons and pearls.<\/p>\n

Thanks so much for stopping by! I hope you found a couple of simple tips and tricks for your next mixed media project.<\/p>\n
