Adventures | Sarah Millerhouse | June Color Kitz


Hello! I am excited to share this layout featuring the BEAUTIFUL June Color Kitz! The color combinations in this month's kit are absolute perfection! 


I started this layout by adding color to the background. I used Foundations mixed media cardstock as the base of my layout. I added the Vibez - Rip Van Periwinkle at the top of the layout. I sprayed it first, and then I spread it around with a paint brush. Around the top and side edges, I added the Shimmerz - Pool Me Close. Towards the bottom of the layout I added on the Shimmerz - Iris My Case. Both of the Shimmerz are so gorgeous and full of sparkle. As these colors were drying, I splattered in the new Spritz - Pipe Cream for some added dimension and variation in color. 


On top of the background color, I got busy adding all of the beautiful things from the June Paper Color Kit! I started with the turquoise paper at the top. I cut six inch strips in various widths. I snipped the top corners of each strip to look like a slat of wood and distressed the edges. I glued these down at various heights to look like a wood wall. I then fussy cut many of the embellishments from the ephemera sheets. I added the wood fence, and I used tons of the fussy cut flowers and vegetation to cascade down the fence and around the photos. 


In the centers of each flower and around the clusters I added small crystals and half pearls from my stash to adorn the flowers and add sparkle! 


I also added Pops of Color in coordinating colors to add dimension and visual interest. I added two perspextives from Bramble for the title and globe to carry the theme of my photos through! As a finishing touch, I splattered on the new Color Splash - Gold Digger to add one last bit of shimmer, shine, and dimension! 


I have a full process video up on the Shimmerz Paints YouTube channel! I hope you will check it out and have some time to create with these beautiful products! If you're placing a Shimmerz order, be sure to add my name, Sarah Millerhouse, in the comments section of the order to receive a free gift!
