To Create this layout:
Step 1 – Cover your paper with clear gesso then trim your paper (I used a paper from the Summer Art pack) to 11.5×11.5

Step 2 – use texture paste and your favorite ECD stencil (I used the Spring Flower Mandela) on the left side middle
Step 3 – use gel medium and another stencil on the rest of the paper (I used the circles from the pattern stencil pack)
