set of cards

Hi all!

Seriously..having so much fun playing with all the Shimmerz products!!!

Today I have two canvas cards to share with you.

I was trying to make a different kind of background this time.

I put some gesso in a bottle with a small tip and

made a random pattern on both of the cards.

When the gesso is completely dry, it's time to add the Shimmerz.

Here I used:

Blingz: Flashee Fushia

Shimmerz: Periwinkle

Shimmerz: Bubble Gum

Spray with some water to let the colors blend in with each other.

Love the way the paints follows the patterns of the gesso 

and you still have the whiteness of the gesso.

Did the same with this one.

Blingz: Flashee Fushia

Shimmerz: Periwinkle

Shimmerz: Tickle Me Turquoise

Really loved the way this turned out and it will create an awesome texture.

Here is the final result after adding some embellishments.

All the flowers were painted with the Shimmerz too.

Hope you liked my today's post and you got inspired to use some Shimmerz as well!

If you place a Shimmerz order make sure you add my name during checkout

 and you will get a FREE sample of your color choice!!

Enjoy your day!!

Create or Clean?

Hi all!

Ingrid here today with a fun Shimmerz project:  Create or Clean?

I bet you all know my answer to this question! LOL!

Seriously, I had so much fun to alter this floor scrubber!!

All the Shimmerz paints are perfect to color the flowers.

I'm buying mostly white flowers lately so I can paint them to match my project.

Started to give this scrubber a firm coat of gesso first.

Sprayed with Vibez and painted with Shimmerz.

Vibez: Jeni B Blue

Vibez: Grape Escape

Shimmerz: Sugar Plum

Shimmerz: Tickle me Turquoise

Shimmerz: Marigold

Thought this mini bucket was a great and fun touch!

After all the paints I randomly added some gesso go give it a nice and fresh look.

Also made this canvas card.

Used my favorite technique at the moment, 

glueing some paper towel with gesso to create the background.

If you place a Shimmerz order make sure you add my name 

in the Instructions to Merchant space to get a FREE product of your color choice.

Enjoy your create or clean day!!

Altering Embellishments with Shona

Hello Shimmerz Fans! Today I have a layout to share where I have colored the flowers and chippys to match my creation.

 

 

For the chippys I have given them a base coat of white paint and then I have added some Tuscan Sun Spritz to them for a bit of color and added Shimmerz on them.

 

 

I also wanted my main flowers to be the same color so I added Tuscan Sun Spritz to them. To finish it all off I did some masking in the background with Patina Texturez. I like the color combo on this project…its different and fun!

Mixed Media Scrapbook Layout: Live Boldly

Hi Crafters <3

Today I want to share the mixed media layout I created for Once Upon A Sketch. 

I have never done a layout like this before and I think it an art journal page style layout. I cut out my face from a photo and colored the photo with alcohol based marker to add lip color, blush, and to alter the color of the eyes. I doodled my hair and around the circles. 

I want to make this page very bold to match the title "live boldly", so I used many bold colors as well. It is not a pastel-colored layout but a very vibrant-colored layout. 

My main message in this layout is to live the way you want and don't be afraid to do things differently. I really hope you like this very different layout :))

Here is the start-to-finish video:

Product list:

Vibez: Jeni B Bleu, Rolling in the Hay

Coloringz: No Yoking

Sprtiz: Terra Cotta, Caribbean Sunset

Dazzelerz: Lemon Drop

Dimensionz: Orange U Pretty, Blue Lagoon

Texturez: Gritty Graphite

Stay Creative <3

Find Your Wings … by Iris Babao Uy

Hi everyone! This is Iris and I am so thrilled to be posting here at the Shimmerz blog for the first time! I have admired and longed for Shimmerz products but these beauties were not readily available here at our LSS. You can just imagine how thrilled I was when I opened my first DT box and had a go at playing with the paints and mediums! The mists are vibrant and the Dazzlerz…. I love that you get instant color, shimmer AND texture in one jar!

Let me show you the very first layout I made with Shimmerz products..

The background paper was treated with some Shimmerz mists..

cake pastels applied over the stencils…

 metallic watercolor stamping…

Finally, I painted the edges with Pink Shimmerz Paint and then applied Tutti Frutti Dazzlerz with a palette knife.

Here is a list of the Shimmerz products used for this layout:

Shimmers Vibez: Razzeldazzel Berry, Jeni B. Bleu, Sunset Strip

Shimmerz Paints: Pink

Dazzlerz: Tutti Fruti

I truly enjoyed creating this layout! I hope you are in the mood to play with some of your Shimmerz products now! Till next time!!

 If you guys shop at the online store, just mention my name at the INSTRUCTIONS TO MERCHANT space and you will get a FREE sample sized jar of Dazzlerz or Texturez or a full sized bottle of Dimensionz of your color choice.

Bright and Happy Layout- By Keren Tamir

Its my turn on the Shimmerz blog today and I have a very bright and happy layout just for you.

I used Lemon Drop and Gummy Berry Blue Dazzlerz to mask two different types of stencilled doilies around the page.

Then using some Chikadee, Sea Foam and Caribbean Sunset sprays, I sprayed around the page and let it drip unevenly. Finally I took a black aquarelle pencil and outlined the drips I had made with the inks.

I stamped different types of images across the page using black archival ink. Then I matted the photo with recycled packaging.

Finally I embellished with flowers, vines and other embellishments.

As always if you make a purchase at the Shimmerz Store and if you mention my name during checkout  in the "instructions to merchant" box. Stacey the owner of Shimmerz will send you a free product.

You still have a few days to enter the Shimmerz Challenge on our Facebook page.

You could win yourself some Yummy Shimmerz plus be a Guest Designer on our blog.

Isn't' that a sweet deal?

hope you enjoyed my creation today

Have a wonderful day!!
