I had in my kit this coredinations core essentials grey cardstock.
Looking in my tools drawer, I saw my sanding block.
I haven't used that in ages.
So to start off, I sanded over the embossed dots to create a white/grey background.
Next I flicked turquoise mist on to the page randomly.
It needed "dirtying up" a bit so I used black distress ink to add some grey to it.
Then I painted through a cardboard alpha stencil to get my title.
And here is where we were....Hubbard Glacier, Glacier Bay Alaska
You can see the effect I was creating in this picture.
Here is where the Hubbard Glacier is
and there were 8 cruise liners sitting in front of it waiting for it to calve!
I'm entering this in scrapping 4 fun Technique challenge as well.

Glad Lisa pointed me in the right direction as you weren't on my hop list!
Great job with the paints :)
Well done you on getting messy with the page! Glaciers are awesome aren't they!
You are too clever! The thought of a single layer layout is enough to scare me away, lol! Embossed cs and paint...very smart, girlie! Thanks for sharing!
braver than me! the single layer had me running for the hills! well done on creating a very texture filled design!
An interesting way to recreate the landscape on your layout. Very well done for this challenging challenge.
Beautiful layout, one layers are hard to do and you took it to another level.

I agree with Cindy this was an excellent way to do one layer so cool to think outside the box and to use that paper for this :)
Texture is a good stand-in for layers. Great idea, Julene.
love the embossing and the added paint texture u did on the LO. very pretty. very creative take on the one layer challenge.
Loving the paint work on this, what a trip you must have had!! wow
I too was stumped on the prospect of a single layer, layout. You have opened the window to new possibilities.
What a grand experience to capture.
Sorry I'm so late getting around this hop!
So much texture - I love it!
Beautiful layout and the little bit of messy. ;-)
Lovely glacier picture.
