A Prima Epiphany Mixed Media Layout

Alright scrapping peeps, I know some of you've been waiting for this and it's my pleasure to present my first ever start-to-finish mixed media video... Now screening on my YouTube channel.. Yeah!!!

In this pilot video, I'm sharing a time-lapsed progress in how I created this pearlescent Epiphany mixed media layout using Prima's Epiphany paper collection, Ingvild Bolme's Shabby Chic Treasures, Prima flowers, Colour Bloom Sprays and Finabair's ArtBasics, ArtExtravagance and ArtIngredients... Yes it's a layout that I used almost 90% of Prima goodies!!! Though the general look of this layout look simple, but the work behind is not what you think it is as you will get to see in my video... The Epiphany collection contains a good blend of pastel blue, pink and gray which will be the colour palette I worked towards in building this layout... Filming is not really easy for start-to-finish mixed media videos as I'll have to plan properly to ensure the flow is smooth... Certain tasks such as fussy cutting, planning and positioning of embellishments to waiting for medium to dry are not shown in order to make the video within 30 minutes for maximum pleasure and viewability... I was quite excited yet nervous for this as I was pretty concern that it may not turn out that well... Finally I survived!!!

I had developed this photo of mine and had kept it for quite a long time till I decided to create a layout using Prima's Epiphany collection... The white pureness with a touch of soft pastels of this collection just make my heart flutter... I really love this collection... Moreover I'm a Christian and Epiphany has a biblical meaning to it... Epiphany itself is a traditionally observed church fesitval held on 6th January to celebrate the manifestation of the divine nature of Christ as represented by Magi (Matthew 2:1-12)... Hence, I decided to create a layout to kick start this holiday season (though it's not 6th January yet), to commemorate my status as a child of God and the essence of the Gospel and Christ... Also, as a form of remembrance and realizations I've gotten from God...

Alright, before I bored you guys any further, here I'm presenting this for your crafting inspirations... Feel free to let me know what you think and remember to comment and subscribe to my channel... More photos below and a list of supplies as follows...

Happy crafting!!! Cheers!!!

Your layout is just beautiful! Thank you. I'm wondering about the spelling of epiphany...
