To make this page I brushed on clear gesso on 49and 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 taped on flowers, glued on beads and other items, and I brushed on Shimmerz Paints. I rubbed on gold and silver mica powder on different areas.
To add visual interest I added micro beads,seed beads,glass beads,swarovski crystals,acrylic crystals, glass glitter,gold leaf,iridescent wrapping paper, chipboard,tulle,lace,flowers,fussy cut images from 49 and 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.

I added layers of corrugated cardboard and a watercolor mat.
I arranged the Beautiful Board,fussy cut images,and flowers around the page, then added the beads and other items.I brushed on Shimmerz Paints, and glued on more beads,using Glossy Accents.
To add visual interest I added mica powder, micro beads,seed beads, glass glitter,glass beads,crystals,tulle,bling from my stash,iridescent wrapping paper, sisal,feathers,and fussy cut images from several different lines of Halloween papers from Graphic 45, Beautiful Board and Printed Beautiful Board.

To make this page I brushed on clear gesso on Stamperia 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 took a piece of canvas paper, ran it under the faucet just to get it wet, then ripped off a small amount of the edges to make a fringe. I used a straight pin to help get the threads off.I glued it on the mat. I added layers of corrugated cardboard and placed it on the page.I taped on flowers, glued on beads and other items, and I brushed on Shimmerz Paints. I rubbed on gold and silver mica powder on different areas. At the end I sponged on white gesso to make the page look less busy.
To add visual interest I added micro beads,seed beads,glass beads,swarovski crystals,acrylic crystals, glass glitter,gold leaf,sequins,iridescent wrapping paper, chipboard,tulle,lace,flowers,feathers,dried flowers,fussy cut images from the Botanist Sticker Anthology,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.
