These colors together make such a soft pretty color palette. The glass bead gel creates some amazing texture, and I love how dimensional the leaves turned out. I used white cardstock as my background, and I coated a lot of that with clear gesso. I used those same colors mixed with a bit of water to spread and blend, and then added some splatters.
Once the leaves were dry, I fussy cut them out and scattered them around the page. I also added some stamps to the background. I used leaf stamps from the Bed of Roses and Fresh Start Stamp Sets. I used a gold ink pad to stamp those directly onto the background.
I used some white tissue paper with metallic gold dots as a layer behind my photos, and tucked in some hot pink thread here. I used an older matte gold Thicker as my title.
I absolutely am in awe of this amazing texture! The Shimmerz worked very well on the glass bead gel. I also used the same stencil to trace a few leaves onto some vellum. I cut those out and machine stitched on them using gold thread.
I love the original Shimmerz...it's always SO shimmery and glittery! I did use a bit of Inklingz Miner Miner 49er on the leaves and background as well. It's my favorite gold.
Here are more detailed images. I always take a ton :)
I hope this inspires you in some way. I love how this turned out! I'm so sorry there is no video for this layout. My YouTube channel was hacked last week, and it was removed altogether. I was no longer able to even log in. Google is investigating and working on it, so hopefully it will be fixed soon.
Thank you for stopping by, and have a wonderful day!
Don't forget to mention my name when you make a purchase and check out in the Shimmerz Store...you'll get a freebie paint to try!
