Johanna is another one of our talented project designers at ATB.

She says, “Here is the layout I made, I used the glitter on the “me” and I used the flocking for the large bracket and the music notes on the “J”. I used the Paper Tagger tool to attach the chipboard J. I used the Antiquing Tool to add color to the flower Frame Tape border (to make it pink instead of white) and the edges of one of the quotes, and I sanded the edges of the quotes with the sanding disk end of the Antiquing Tool.

Here are some photos of the glitter on the letters ‘me’. The brown ATB sticker letters didn’t really work for this layout and I also wanted some thing a bit more sparkly. The pink glitter really ties in with the layout.

I used the Flocking & Glitter Kit, first, I added glue to the brown letters.

Second I sprinkled glitter on the glue. Third I shook off the excess glitter into the Speckle Saver and then put the unused glitter back in the bottle. Now I have pink glitter letters for ‘me.’”

Check out how Johanna uses the Tape Writer to journal in this layout. She mixes up the colors of the Refill Tapes and the Fonts. It’s easy to change Font Wheels on the Tape Writer, all you have to do is push a button, remove a pin and insert the wheel. There are 8 fonts available and over 20 different Refill Tapes to choose from!
