To make this page, I stenciled on Prima Platinum Crackle Texture Paste with a small spatula onto watercolor paper.
  I added a watercolor mat under the photo, and a cardboard mat under that. I put white gesso onto  corrugated cardboard, then poured on ultra thick embossing powder onto the wet gesso. I heated it with heat gun. 
 I put dimension between the layers with cardboard.





 I brushed on Shimmerz Paints.

To add visual interest I added embossing powder, microbeads, seed beads, glass beads, pearls, crystals, glass glitter,iridescent wrapping paper, sisal, tulle, feathers, a paper flower,a shell,a fussy cut mermaid from Graphic 45 papers, and bling and metal from my stash. 
      Many of the items are glued on individually with Glossy Accents. 

I rubbed on gold mica powder on a lot of areas and items on the page. 

. I rubbed on pearl mica powder on most of the background on this page. 
















Thank you so much for looking, and have a great week!

Love This Face | Color Kitz | Shannon Allor


Hello friends!  It’s Shannon up on the blog today bringing you this sweet and sassy layout featuring the August 2026 Color Kitz, Paper Kitz & Bonuz Bundle.

I was instantly drawn to this patterned paper for a background and wanted to fill in just a few of the rectangles with another pattern.  These spots became the anchors for my clusters.


I fussy cut out some black and white florals and layered them along with the diecuts, Sequinz and painted bits to fill out my clusters.


The adorable daisy bits were included in the Sequinz and added just the right touch of dimension.

Remember to put my name in the comments section of your next order to score a freebie!

Here’s my complete process:  


Happy Scrapping!
