Circles of glitter

Hi Everyone, I've been at it creating another mixed media card for you to enjoy but this time with a cleaner and more simple design look.

Creating my own 'pattern paper' as such is something I just love to do, and when die cut it can add a beautiful accent to any paper craft project.

For my card today I used the follwoing Shimmerz products:

Shimmeringz - Tickle me Turquoise 

Blingz- Gold Glimmer & Pixie Dust

I first created a background using the three colours applied to different areas.  Then once dry I die cut the circles using Spellbinders Classic Circles die set and adhered them to the card base as pictured.

 I just love the shimmer that the Shimmerz and Blingz gave the circles for a beautiful accent on this card.

Finishing off with a stamped sentiment and enamel dots made it complete.

 Thanks so much for heading over to the blog today to check out my project!  I hope I've inspired you and shown you how lovely a little Shimmerz mixed media can be on your sweet cards even while keeping the design fairly 'clean and simple'.

Till next time

Mixed Media Butterfly Card with Beck BT

Hi Everyone, I've been at it creating another mixed media card for you to enjoy and hopefully be inspired.  This one was so much fun to create using divine Shimmerz paints to accent some beautiful stamping.

For my card today I used the follwoing Shimmerz products:

Shimmerz Inklingz - Blue Lagoon

Shimmerz Creameez - Trippin in the Tropics & Get Glowing
Shimmeringz - Tickle me Turquoise & Pink
Blingz- Gold Glimmer
Vibez - Egg Noggin
Texturez - Tidy Widy

The background was created with mixing layers of colour with the Shimmerz 'Trippin in the Tropics' & 'Get Glowing' Creameez followed by splattering some 'Get Glowing' Creameez as well.

For the sentiment I added Shimmeringz to some 2Crafty Chipboard words and dried with a heat gun for a little texture

Shimmerz Texturez in Tidy White was used for some textured stencilling in the background.  Be sure to do your background stamping first as it is always harder to do that over the top of texture.

Shimmerz 'Tickle me Turquoise' and Inklingz 'Blue Lagoon' look beautiful added to the stamped Indigoblu image along with Creamez 'Trippin in the Tropics' and Shimmeringz 'Pink'.

Accenting was created by adding some Creamez 'Get Glowing' to the butterfly as well.

 Thanks so much for heading over to the blog today to check out my project!  I hope I've inspired you and shown you how lovely a little Shimmerz mixed media can be on your sweet cards.
