For The Shimmerz Paints Design Team, Every Heart Sings A Song, Incomplete, Until Another Heart Whispers Back

To make this page I brushed on clear gesso on 49&Market Paper,then stenciled on Prima Platinum Texture Paste with a small spatula. I taped on watercolor paper under the image to make it stronger and to lie flat. I made a watercolor mat. I added layers of corrugated cardboard and placed it on the page. I put a piece of canvas on one layer of cardboard.I taped on flowers, glued on beads and other items, and I brushed on Shimmerz Paints.  I rubbed on gold mica powder on a few raised areas.  





To add visual interest I added micro beads,seed beads,glass beads, glass glitter,copper leaf,iridescent wrapping paper, chipboard,tulle,lace,sisal,flowers,feathers,fussy cut images from 49 & Market paper,and bling and metal from my stash. A lot of the items are glued on individually with Glossy Accents. Many of the textural items are from Reneabouquets.





                                                         
      Shimmerz: Run! Forest,and Bumbly Bee.
