This week's free project comes from the book Lifelines by Carol Wingert and Tena Sprenger. This book is all about celebrating the valued relationships in your life by expressing them through mixed-media projects. In addition to all of the inspiration that's in this book, for creating memory art, there are also a ton of really cool techniques like the one featured in this project. Who can resist a cool resist? Discover how easy it is to create your own unique background papers (for collage, scrapbooking or journaling) using personal elements and spray paint.
