Shimmerz Design Team Layout, Pretty In Blue

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





I put the layers under the photo together,starting with taping on watercolor paper under the image to make it stronger and to lie flat. I taped together layers of cardboard with the photo on top. I applied Prima crackle paste with a spatula. I put the chipboard frame  on the page, and started adding flowers and other items. I painted the corrugated, chipboard,and watercolor matt with Shimmerz Paints, First BlushBlue My Mind, and Olive U Truly. All the gold on the page is mica powder and water.






To add visual interest I added micro beads, seed beads,glass glitter,iridescent wrapping paper,gold thread, lace, pink tulle, Swarovski and other brands of crystals, glass beads, pearls,metal from Reneabouquets,Tim Holtz, sealing wax, flowers from  Reneabouquets,and bling and metal from my stash. Most of the things are glued on individually with Glossy Accents.I used double sided foam tape for the flowers and some other things,and to put the cardboard layers together. 














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