How To Make the Layer for the Swing Card

Here is the Part 2 to the Swing Card that I made awhile back.  I had a couple of you ask me how I made the mat layer for the card.  So this is it.  It is really pretty easy to do, but it is hard to explain.  If you just play around with the layers you will see what I am talking about.  Let me know if you would like to see anything else.

Love Your Layout: February 2013

Here is another Studio J layout using the Later Sk8r Kit.  You will find lots of tips and tricks for creating a gnarly layout.  Take a look and see what you think.  Or you can get started here.
If you have not tried to even taken a look at Studio J you don't know what you are missing.  It is very fun and easy to make you layouts.  You can even do them while you are on vacation.  Make it a family affair and have everybody input while it is happening. 
You won't be sorry you gave it a try!
