Rainbow Art Journal Page | Katty Miranda

Hello friends! Katty here. Today I am sharing an art journal page. I wanted to create a fun rainbow using some of my favorite colors and Shimmerz Paints. I am working in my Daler Rowney Mixed Media Travel Book. I love the size of this book. 

I began by painting my rainbow. I painted simple strokes. I used a variety of Shimmerz products to create the color strokes. I used Creameez in Berry Hot, My Clementine and Refresh Mint. I used Inklingz in Precious Posey and an original Shimmerz Paint in the color Sunny. I also used a Spritz in Saphire. Some of the colors were used twice. 

Once that was dry I used some of the amazing Shimmerz Paints Texture Pasted through a chain stencil. I used Past-Eez in the colors Don't be a Pansy, Baby Boy Blue, Hold the Mustard and Raspberry Sherbert. I also used Dazzlerz in Dreamscicle and Sea U in the Mornin'. 

I love the way it turned out. To add some extra fun and texture I used twine in coordinating colors where the two colors met. I also added two different types of butterflies that I punched out of white cardstock. I love the extra detail that the butterflies added. 

Products used: 

Creameez: Berry Hot, My Clementine, Refresh Mint

Inklingz: Precious Posey

Shimmerz Paint: Sunny

Spritz: Saphire

Dazzlerz: Dreamscicle, Sea u in the Mornin'

Paste-Eez: Baby Boy Blue, Hold the Mustard, Don't be a Pansy, Raspberry Sherbert 

Thanks so much for stopping by today. Remember...

Today Scrapbook Layout | Katty Miranda

Hello friends! Katty here to share another 12x12 layout with you all. I am scrapping a sequence of photos of my niece and my mom. My niece gives the best hugs. She is the sweetest.

I began with a floral embroidery stencil and my Shimmerz Dazzlerz in the color Spun Sugar. I used it on white cardstock. I used Spun Sugar to create a neutral base. 

To add color to the flowers, I used several colors. I used a combination of an Inklingz in the color Bahama Mama and a Creameez in the color Refresh Mint for some of the flowers and a combination of two Creameez in  Berry Hot and Sky's the Limit for the other flowers. I then fussy cut the flowers.

I pulled out a mint green paper from my stash. I arranged my three photos in the center of the layout and added a simple layer of tracing paper behind all three photos. I then raised them up on foam. I then clustered the flowers underneath the pictures and added some leaves I had previously cut out on my Silhouette Cameo.

I used a Teresa Collins diagonal stripe stencil with the Dazzlerz in Spun Sugar and used the same four colors to color in between the stripes. I cut out strips and added two in the top right and two on the bottom left of the layout. In between the strips of color I added white drops using Nuvo Drops. I also added Nuvo Drops to the flowers for some extra detail. 

I used a Heidi Swapp acetate word in a coordinating coral color as my tittle and a few random embellishments from my stash. At first I wasn't sure about combining all of these colors but  in the end I really like how it turned out. 

There is a video on my channel if you'd like to watch my process:

Taming the Terrible Twos Layout | Katty Miranda

Hello everyone! Happy Superbowl Sunday Katty here! I hope you are all having a wonderful day!
I am back today to share another 12x12 layout.

Today I will be working with the new Paste-eez, these are the smooth dimensional pastes with a flat finish that we released last month. They are so fun to play with. I used two colors on this layout, Raspberry Sherbert and Hold the Mustard. I used them through a Prima Stencil. I layered the stenciled Paste-eez and some scallop shaped patterned papers on the bottom half of my layout. 

The top portion was plain white. I wanted to add some color so I used a Coloringz in Oh say can you Sea with the same stencil. I also scattered around a few small flowers that I had cut out with my Silhouette Cameo. I colored them with a Coloringz in Mandarin Mai Tai and a Creameez in Berry Hot. I colored the rest with some gold paint from my stash.

I added block enamel dots to the flowers I scattered around and added a couple of simple embellishments. I created a long tittle mixing a few different fonts in coordinating colors, this is something I love to do.

This was a lot of fun to create. I'm really glad I decided to add the teal. 

There is a process video on my YouTube channel if you'd like to watch.

Products used:

Hope you enjoyed watching.....here are a few close-ups you can view at your leisure....

I just love well the Shimmerz Inklingz and Creameez work when painting chipboard pieces.  Here I painted the Dusty Attic Indian Arrow....so many fun things you can do with this one!  I did a little quick painting with Shimmerz Creameez & Inklings, then added some twine and Bo Bunny adhesive pearls for a unique look.

For the butterfly, I printed off a butterfly image on an acetate sheet and cut out two sizes, gluing them together.  (I had the image on my old computer, so I no longer have the image to share....but you can find many printable butterfly images on Pinterest).  The metal embellishments are the key and keyhole embellishments from Graphic 45.  I used the TCW mini-brick stencil with the NEW Dusty Attic Texture paste to get my background design.

I used a combination of Shimmerz Glorious Day Vibez, Truffle Spritz and Green Olive Shimmerz Paint for the background brick texture colors.

Hope you enjoyed today's post! thanks so much for stopping by, your comments and feedback are always appreciated!
