I used colors from the September Color Kits Collection:

To make this page, I stenciled Prima Platinum Texture Paste with a small spatula onto watercolor paper. I taped on watercolor paper under the image to make it stronger and to lie flat,and made a mat also. I took a piece of corrugated cardboard,ripped the paper off, and brushed on white gesso.

I sprinkled on ultra thick embossing powder into the wet gesso and heated it with a heat gun.

 I added layers of corrugated cardboard in between the layers, and glued on beads and other items.

 I brushed on Shimmerz Paints.I sponged on white gesso as needed to try and balance the colors. I rubbed on pearl mica powder on the white gesso, and gold onto the raised areas all over the page.

I painted on Black Hole on the background  to balance it with the photo. 

To add visual interest I added microbeads, seed beads, glass beads,sequins,pearls,gold leaf, feathers, crystals, glass glitter, tulle, and bling and metal from my stash. There are some fussy cut images from Graphic 45 papers.

      Many of the items are glued on individually with Glossy Accents.

To make this page, I stenciled Prima Platinum Texture Paste with a small spatula onto Blue Fern paper. I taped on watercolor paper under the image to make it stronger and to lie flat,and made a mat also. I took a piece of corrugated cardboard,ripped the paper off, and brushed on white gesso.

I sprinkled on ultra thick embossing powder into the wet gesso and heated it with a heat gun.

 I added layers of corrugated cardboard in between the layers, and glued on beads and other items.

I sponged white gesso on the paper around the photo. This was so I could have a white background to paint on. 

 I brushed on Shimmerz Paints. I rubbed on pearl mica powder on the white gesso, and gold onto the raised areas all over the page.

I painted on Black Hole on the background  to balance it with the photo.

To add visual interest I added microbeads, seed beads, glass beads,sequins,pearls,gold leaf, feathers, crystals, glass glitter,dried flowers, tulle, and bling and metal from my stash.

I sprinkled on ultra thick embossing powder into the wet gesso and heated it with a heat gun.

 I added layers of corrugated cardboard in between the layers, and glued on beads and other items. I brushed on Shimmerz Paints, using colors similar to the June color kit. 

 I added a little gesso to show where the waves were breaking. I brushed or rubbed on gold, pink, and pearl mica powder on different  areas. 

To add visual interest I added microbeads, seed beads, glass beads,tulle,  crystals,pearls, feathers, glass glitter, shells, and bling and metal from my stash. 

I made the flower with 6 layers of polyester chiffon. I traced the circles around containers that were the size I wanted with a pen.then cut the circles out. I heated the edges over a candle. I dyed the layers then sewed them together, and glued on a pearl. I used Peacock Plume and Lilac Blossom to dye the layers.

I spread a little Glossy Accents under the photo and sprinkled on linen colored embossing powder. It was to get a little sand effect on the page.

      Many of the items are glued on individually with Glossy Accents.   

Inklingz:   First Blush

Blingz + Shimmerz - Gold Glimmer

Shimmerz: Lilac Blossom, Peacock's Plume, and Royal Purple
