Hi everyone today I have a new layout for Just Nick Studio featuring the background cut file called Tin Tile Background which is coming into store this month:
My main idea behind my layout was to go quite graphic as that fit the style of the Pink Fresh Studio’s Case of the Blahs collection so I chose this particular cut file as it is quite structured, linear and I just love the way it creates a beautiful texture to my page. I cut the cut file out on white cardstock layered it over another piece of white cardstock and added some black and lime green splatters for a bit of mixed media detail. I really wanted to keep my background subtle so that you get a hint without overwhelming my photo.
Once I had my background sorted, I wanted to grunge it up a bit more so I tore off a small edge at the top left and the bottom right of my white cardstock to allow a piece of the green scalloped patterned paper to peak through.
Adding pops of colour with black and white is such a fun way of creating layouts. Adding the cut file as you can see below adds a pretty soft detail yet doesn’t create anything too busy!
Do you like creating background’s with cut files? Do you stick with white cardstock for cutting your cut files or do you go for a more of a bolder statement? Either way, Just Nick’s background cut files are just the perfect statement to add to our pages.
Til next time!
