Hi everyone! Melissa here with a 5 x 7 reverse canvas  for the amazing Reneabouquets. Go and see all  the beautiful treasures there!

I took a 5"x7" canvas, and brushed on gesso on the reverse side. I stenciled on Prima Platinum Crackle Texture paste on the frame and background. I added the Beautiful Board on top of the canvas, and put the Mother and  child on. I placed the flower on, and then all the little items. Whenever I glued something on with Glossy Accents, I added diamond glitter.  I painted with Shimmerz Paints, and                                                                          rubbed on gold and silver mica powder.                                                                                                           

To add visual interest I added micro beads, glass glitter,a few Swarovski  crystals, glass beads, pearls,shells, tulle,and flowers from  Reneabouquets.  All the fussy cut images are from Graphic 45. Most of the things are glued on individually with Glossy Accents.I used double sided foam tape for the                                                        flowers and some other things.

Thank you so much for looking, and have a great week!

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

Photo credit: Unsplash

To make this page, I put the layers under the photo together,starting with taping on watercolor paper under the image to make it stronger and to lie flat. I added layers of corrugated cardboard and a watercolor mat. The bottom layer of cardboard has gesso that I poured Ultra Thick Embossing Powder onto and heated till  it was just melted. You can't see the corrugated because I layered paper and tulle over it.

I coated a sheet of Prima paper with clear gesso, then applied Prima Platinum crackle paste  with a stencil and a spatula.I arranged Prima fussy cut papers and flowers around the page, then added the beads and other items.I brushed on Shimmerz Paints, and glued on more beads. I applied jaquard gold mica powder with my fingers on the raised parts of the page, and also on a lot of textured items. A lot of the dark color on the page is a mix of Run!Forest and Teal The End Of Time. 

To add visual interest I added micro beads, glass glitter,Swarovski  crystals, glass beads,gold thread, tulle,lace, iridescent wrapping paper, feathers,flowers, and shells A lot of the items are glued on individually with Glossy Accents.I used double sided foam tape for the flowers and some other things, and to put the cardboard layers together.

The Magic Of Christmas Never Ends, For The Shimmerz Paints Design Team

 Hi everyone! Melissa here with a new post for the amazing ShimmerzPaints! Go and see all the fun                                                 treasures there!                                

I made 12 gift tags with a book box to put them in. I'm going to give them to family for mini Christmas cards. I used a reindeer stamp that measures 3" x 3". It's by Stampendous at Hobby Lobby, I've had it for a few years and finally used it. I keep it on display year round in my scrap room,that's how much I like it.

To make these cards I used watercolor paper, on one I used handmade paper, the one I show below.

They are all about 3 by 3 inches. I scored the folds with an exacto knife with a ruler.and used a bone folder to make the fold. I stamped the images and started painting. I used #0 watercolor brushes, they're very small.

I brushed on white gesso for accents at the end, and that sort of pulled everything together. I experimented with what colors I liked the most. Penny 4 Your Thoughts is the basic color here. So Sappy was perfect for a golden hue on top of the Penny.  I found putting a small amount on the brush and working in layers was what worked, letting the paint dry in between.

Christmas Advent Calendar, For The Shimmerz Paints Design Team

                                       Hi everyone! Melissa here with a new post for the                                                                             amazing ShimmerzPaints! Go and see all the fun treasures there! 

This is a cardboard advent calendar I bought at Hobby Lobby last year.

To make this project, I covered each box with some Prima scrapbooking paper from about 10 years ago. I layered on clear gesso, Prima Platinum texture paste with a stencil, Shimmerz paints, and mica powders in gold and silver. I added the charms and covered them with clear gesso, so paint would stick to them. The charms were from my stash, and from Reneabouquets. 

To add visual interest I added just a few micro beads, glass glitter,Swarovski  crystals, and glass beads. 

I added on the numbers with a little glossy accents, they're from old Tim Holtz scrapbooking paper.

Inklingz: Penny 4 Your Thoughts, Angel's Kiss,no longer in stock.

Shimmerz:   Ultra Marine,  Precious Metal, and Peacock's Plume

I covered the top and back of the box with white gesso.
