To make this page, I stenciled Prima Platinum Texture Paste with a small spatula onto watercolor paper. I taped on watercolor paper under the image to make it stronger and to lie flat,and made a mat of it also. I took a piece of corrugated cardboard,ripped the paper off, and brushed on white gesso.
I sprinkled on ultra thick embossing powder into the wet gesso and heated it with a heat gun.
 I added layers of corrugated cardboard in between the layers, and glued on beads and other items.

 I brushed on Shimmerz Paints.I rubbed on gold, pearl, and blue mica powder on a lot of the background and raised areas on the page.






To add visual interest I added microbeads, seed beads, glass beads,sequins,pearls, crystals, glass glitter, tulle, and bling and metal from my stash. There are some fussy cut images from Graphic 45 papers.
      Many of the items are glued on individually with Glossy Accents.   





 Inklingz: Blue Lagoon, and Plum Crazy


                           Shimmerz:  LimoncelloUltra Marine, and Pool Me Close












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

I love adding Sequinz from the Bonuz Bundle to my clusters for a lovely bit of sparkle and shine!


The floral elements add the cutest touch of whimsy and the Simple Stories alphabet was such a perfect addition!

Let's Walk Scrapbooking Layout

Hey all! Nicole here with a fun layout that I made using the March Color Kitz!  I'm documenting a photo of my and my hubby on a walk.  It was cold and dreary that day but we got our walk in anyway!  I love how this layout came together!
 

The first thing I did for this layout was to spray the background with the Rockin Robin paint from the kit.  Since there would be a rainbow on this I wanted the blue to be the sky behind the rainbow.  I also splattered with some Well Blue Me Down paint to give the background some interest!

I then fussy cut the rainbow, circles, and flowers from patterned paper in the kit.  I distressed the circles and rainbow layers and added them all to the background when it was dry.
 

I added my photo on some foam tape to the right of the layout and then added my title to the left of the photo.  I wrote my journaling under the title in blue.  I then added some blue doodle hearts to the background and finished off my layout with some iridescent sequins.

Thanks for popping on to read all about my layout.  You can find a process video for this layout here: Let's Walk 12x12 Scrapbooking Layout

Until next time, Nicole

Ladybug Love | Color Kitz Collections | Shannon Allor

 Hello friends!  It’s Shannon up on the blog today bringing you this sweet layout featuring my daughter and a little ladybug that decided to go on a hike with her!  I went pretty simple with my mixed media using the packaging technique to create a sky area.


I absolutely adore the “coloring page” that we get in the Color Kitz!  I painted in all of the pieces and added some white splatters (from my stash) for interest.  A simple fussy cut and I had a bunch of ephemera!


The gorgeous mix of the Paper Kitz, the Color Kitz and the Bonuz Bundle allows you to customize your projects to help tell your story.  It’s so fun!
