September Guest Designer- Melinda Thompson- Week 3

Its week 3 in September.  A busy month....it's flying by!

I will leave you now in Melinda's very capable hands!
Welcome back again Melinda.....


"Hi Everyone.
Melinda with you again today.

I have used the following Shimmerz Products to create this layout.

Coloringz – No Yoking
Coloringz – Valentino
Shimmerz – Sugar Plum
Shimmerz – Pumpkin




In the background of this layout I firstly punched out some circles and just glued them down.  Using the Shimmerz – Sugar Plum I dipped my finger into the little jar and traced around the outside of the circles. Once this was dry I added some stamping to enhance the circles.




My next step was masking with some modelling paste.  Once that was dry I used a fine paint brush and went around the masked area with some Coloringz – No Yoking. Then I went over it with some Shimmerz – Pumpkin. I noticed once I added the Shimmerz, the modelling paste started to crackle...what a cool effect!



Then lastly, after all my embellishments were added I dripped some Shimmerz – Sugar Plum on them.  Love how the Shimmerz adhered to the metal embellishments."



So thats it for this week from our GD'er Melinda Thompson.
