For The Shimmerz Paints Design Team, Creativity Is Intelligence Having Fun


Hi everyone! Melissa here with a new page for the amazing Shimmerz Paints! Go and see all the fun                                                                           treasures there!






I stenciled Prima Platinum Texture Paste with a small spatula onto Prima paper. I taped on watercolor paper under the image to make it stronger and to lie flat, and also made two layers of mats to layers of corrugated cardboard.I taped on flowers, glued on beads and other items, and I brushed on Shimmerz Paints.  I rubbed and brushed 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, sequins,gold leaf,iridescent wrapping paper,sisal,chipboard, tulle, flowers, 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.

For The Reneabouquets Design Team, When You Are On A Great Horse, You Have The Best Seat You Will Ever Have

 

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






To make this page, I applied a layer of Prima crackle paste to watercolor paper with a stencil and a small spatula.  I put the layers under the photo together,starting with taping on watercolor paper to the                                                                    photo to make it lie flat.                                                                                                                                                                                             
 I added layers of corrugated cardboard and two watercolor mats.            
   
I arranged the Beautiful Board,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 rubbed and painted on gold mica powder.






To add visual interest I added micro beads,seed beads, glass glitter,glass beads,crystals,sequins,gold leaf,tulle,sisal, silver thread,bling from my stash,iridescent wrapping paper,feathers,and fussy cut images from Graphic 45. I used glossy accents to adhere items to the page.  For flowers I used double sided foam tape.
