Ribbons, Lace, and Good Intentions: For The Reneabouquets Design Team, Small Cheer And Great Welcome Make A Merry Feast

Thursday, November 2, 2023

Hi everyone! Melissa here with a new post, a layout, for the amazing Reneabouquets. Go and see all the beautiful treasures there!

To make this page, I applied a layer of clear gesso, then Prima crackle paste to Bazill white cardstock paper with a stencil and a small spatula. I put the layers under the photo together,starting with taping on watercolor paper under the photo to make it lie flat.

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. I brushed on light teal mica powder around the edges of the page. I also used silver and gold mica powders in different areas.

To add visual interest I added micro beads,seed beads, glass glitter,glass beads,crystals,tulle,bling from my stash,iridescent wrapping paper, sisal,feathers,and fussy cut images from Graphic 45, Beautiful Board and Printed Beautiful Board.
