To make this page, I brushed on a layer of clear gesso onto 49 and Market paper. I put Prima Platinum crackle paste on with a stencil and a small spatula.

I taped on a layer of watercolor paper underneath the photo to help it to lie flat. I added a layer of corrugated cardboard and a watercolor paper mat. I added another layer of cardboard and a bottom layer of corrugated.

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 on gold mica

powder.

To add visual interest I added micro beads,seed beads, glass glitter, crystals,glass beads,sequins,tulle,lace,gold leaf, iridescent wrapping paper,sisal,wire,a feathers,pressed flowers,Reneabouquets metal items,and bling from my stash.I used glossy accents and double sided foam tape to adhere items to the page.
