Playing with Texturez.

Hello Hello.....
Its an Ed Team day again today, so there is another video for you to sit back and relax with!

I enjoyed this one....I just played!

You might recognise this page I created for the Blog Hop a few weeks back......

Using the humble chap stick as a stamp!  This time I am taking it a step further.  While I was stamping the background circles for this page, I did wonder how cool these would be cut out and applied to a project, with a touch of dimension.

So this is what this video will show.
I will do more videos next week for the mini class series, which will share a few more ideas on using Texturez and Dazzlerz in your projects!

So lets get moving....
Here you can see a close up of some of the sealed and unsealed Texturez circles  ( More of that particular Layout in the next post for the June Challenge)



VIDEO

So I hope you enjoyed watching this and it has sparked some fun ideas in you too.  Get your Texturez NOW, if you dont already have some.....and do you want some free Dazzlerz or Texturez?  Just place your order with Shimmerz Paints and send Stacey a note in the message to merchant section saying what colour Dazzlerz or Tezturez you would like, and mention my name, (or any Shimmerz Designer) and Stacey will send you a sample tub of your choice...Well worth your time, try the product, or try another colour!  Fun fun fun.

Thanks for stopping by today.  Stay tuned for more posts regarding this technique.

Shabby and Shimmery Tags

Happy Friday everyone!  So happy the weekend is here :)  Today I have some cute and shabby tags to share with you.  I loved making the first one so much with the birdie I just had to whip up another using the same colour palette!
 
Shimmerz products used:
 
Texturez in Crushed Coral
Dazzlerz in Dreamsicle and Spun Sugar
Shimmerz in Tickle Me Turquoise
Vibez in Jeni B Bleu
Spritz in Mango Madness
 
 


With the first tag I dabbed some Shimmerz onto the background.  I applied a little water to the paintbrush and took away some of the colour which in turn gave the watercolour effect.  Using one of the lids off the Shimmerz pots I applied some circles using Dazzlerz in Dreamsicle. 
 
 



I added some embellishments and even the little birdie was painted in Shimmerz.
 
 



The second tag I used a butterfly stamp which I then coloured in with the Shimmerz.  I also stamped the stamp onto a transparency sheet and cut out the shape and coloured aswell. 
 
 



 
 
Thanks for visiting with me today, I hope you have a creative weekend!!!
 
Stace :)

Life. Live.


Hi Shimmerz Ladies! Today I want share with you my last canvas painted with the newst Dazzlerz products. 


I used the Dazzlerz in two different ways: the first one, to color the background mixing together the green, yellow and blue ...


... on the second way I used the pasty consistency of Dazzlerz to create three-dimensional elements.




Products used:

Have a great day with creativity!
