    1. Hi Carol,
      You know I havent done a whole lot of Mixed Media Layouts in the past, I do have one here:https://youtu.be/FWrTOAIhVOg
      I’m just wondering what products do you like to use for your Mixed Media layouts…texture paste, templates, stamping, misting sprays?
      I would love to get into doing some more of these tutorials. I’m just curious if you can give me a bit more info on what you would like so I can make something to suit you.
      Alicia : )
