Love You | Niki Rowland


Hey there Shimmerz fans! Niki here with you today and I'm sharing an Autumnal layout with you today. I have used just one colour on my layout: Blingz Gold n Roses.


I started off by painting lots of leaves cut from white card with a cut file. I gave them just one coat but applied the paint fairly thick. The Gold n Roses Blingz is absolutely gorgeous...it's a lovely deep pink/purple colour with a golden shimmer running through it.


While I waited for the leaves to dry I applied some of the same colour to a piece of packaging. I added some water to make the paint a bit more watery and then applied it directly to a piece of white cardstock. I applied it all the way across the page so that it would show from underneath my paper layers at the top of my layout.


Once everything was dry I added gold stitching to the leaves and then arranged everything onto my layout.


Once the paper layers, photo and leaves were all arranged onto my layout I then added a few extra embellishments including a wooden mushroom, a couple of wooden buttons and a wooden leaf. I then added the gorgeous Blingz Gold n Roses to those too.


Finally I finished off by adding a few paint flicks in...you guessed it...Gold n Roses Blingz! How versatile are these Shimmerz products! I've used this paint in four different ways: painting die cut cardstock shapes, packaging technique, painting wooden embellishments and adding paint flicks.

I absolutely loved just using the one colour to create this layout, it was a great experiment and I'm super pleased with how my layout turned out!

Don't forget if you place an order for Shimmerz Paints, put my name in the comments and you'll get a free gift - happy days! 

Happy scrapping xx
