Grateful For You | Color Kitz | Shannon Allor

 Hello friends!  It’s Shannon up on the blog today bringing you this sweet layout featuring the Color Kitz, Paper Kitz and Bonuz Bundle.  I am loving this Autumnal color palette and these gorgeous patterns!


This layout was super quick to put together.  I used a bold pattern for both my background and my matting paper.  I then fussy cut out the “crossword” part of this Thankful paper to use as a strong title piece.


My photo is the star of the show.  I layered all kinds of diecuts and Sequinz to highlight this lovely memory.


I love taking the time for painting session with all of our black and white images.


I cannot wait to see what you create with these products!


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


Here’s my process:


Happy Scrapping!

Fall Car Rides Using the Shimmerz November Color Kitz Bundle


 Hey all, Nicole here with my first layout of the month using the Shimmerz Color Kitz Bundle.  My scrapbook layout is full of beautiful red fall color!

The first thing that I did was choose this beautiful red and white polka dot paper, it is my favorite out of the kit!  I tore it about 3-4 inches from the bottom and marked on a foundations mixed media paper where it would fall with a pencil.  I then added the Red-y Or Not Coloringz from the kit to the bottom of the mixed media paper.


I decided to add the little strip of foliage to the top of this layout, where my photo would go.  I then embellished using the die cuts and dotz.  I finished by splattering with the Punkin Pie Vibez and Teal the End of Time Shimmerz paints.

My page came together pretty easily, especially with all the goodies in the kit!  I also have a process video for this layout that you can watch here: https://youtu.be/qVEKHnSq5qQ

Thanks for popping on to read about my layout using the November Color Kitz Bundle.

Until next time, Nicole

Blake’s | Color Kitz Collections | Shannon Allor

 Hello friends!  It’s Shannon up on the blog today bringing you this layout that is full of Autumn goodness!  I have had the best time creating with the Color Kitz, Paper Kitz and Bonuz Bundle this month!  The color palette is glorious!


I started the process with using the new Shimmerz clear gesso on the black and white images and let them dry.  Next, I had a painting session and customized all of the artwork as well as backed my cutfile.


I love layering the diecuts along with my fussy cut pieces.  A few well-placed Sequinz complete the clusters!


I make sure to add plenty of dimension with foam adhesive.


I wanted just a bit more orange goodness so I added a few splatters around my clusters.

For The Shimmerz Paint Design Team, "Let Misty Autumn Be Our Part!"

 


Hi everyone! Melissa here with a new page for the amazing Shimmerz Paints! Go and see all the fun                                                                            treasures there! 

                                                               Photo credit: Pixabay






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 also. I glued canvas paper on top of corrugated cardboard.I made the fringe on the canvas by brushing the edges with water and ripping off the threads. I added layers of corrugated cardboard in between the  mats. I taped on flowers, then glued on beads and other items. I brushed on Shimmerz Paints.I rubbed                                                     on gold mica powder on different  areas.






To add visual interest I added micro beads, seed beads, glass beads, crystals, glass glitter,sequins, chipboard, tulle,flowers,a dried yellow flower, copper leaf, and bling and metal from my stash.  A lot of                                        the items are glued on individually with Glossy Accents.

Spooky Halloween Scrapbook Layout | Melissa Minor | October Color Kitz

 Hi crafty friends! Melissa Minor here and I'm super excited to be sharing another layout with you for the Shimmerz Paintz design team. I'm using the October 2024 Color Kitz. I started the layout by painting some of the Dandy Lion-Creameez onto white mixed media cardstock. I then cut that piece down and used as a layering piece behind my photos. 


I layered up some of the bright and fun patterned papers from the kit. To embellish my layout I brought in quite a few dies from my stash. For the title, I cut the word SPOOKY using a festive font. I then used some Vicki Boutin Thickers and finished my title with the word FUN. The thickers are white so I used some of the Celery-Shimmerz to paint in the letters. I love the shiny green this brought down to the bottom of the layout. 

Next I cut some tags with various papers from the kit. I added some ribbon and twine to give my layout extra interest and dimension. I embellished with one of the dotz and several ephemera pieces from the kit. I love the little witch and Frankenstein pieces. The pictures I'm scrapbooking aren't actually from Halloween. My boyfriend Dale and I visited a really cool store in St Charles, MO that had Halloween decorations all over. We had to snap a few pictures. The store seemed to keep going and going. There were so many rooms, twists, and turns filled with all kinds of interesting items for sale.
