Free your mind with Riikka Kovasin :)

Free your mind

My key thought while scrapping is not to think but instead free my mind and just do. Somebody sometimes used the phrase “let your hands lead you” and I think it’s a perfect way to describe what I do. I just play around with different media and pretty papers and embellishments and change my game plan according to every layer I create.

I taped a video while working with this layout so you can see my process.

Sunglasses

My younger daughter is a little clown. While shopping for summer clothes she made her way to the sunglasses and tried almost every single one on making funny faces. I love to use the product packaging and “scraps” in my layouts, too. Here I added the die cut sheet to the paper layers.

Spoil yourself

The idea behind this layout is “all work and no play make Jack a dull boy”. The layout is actually a reminder to myself, to have time to play, too. I used similar process to this layout than to the first one, but changed the colors and some of embellishments.
