Be Happy | Shimmerz Paints | MK Gunn

 Hey, It's MK! I thought I'd play with the June papers today and make a fun, whimsical layout.


I started by picking my papers and coming up with a plan before I even decided which photos I'm going to use.  Flipping through my album I found photos that had the perfect colors for the papers I picked.

I fussy cut out the wooden frames from one sheet, the succulents from another sheet and the florals from the cut apart.  Then, I used Shimmerz Coffee, Inklingz Chocolate & Diamonds, Shimmerz Cranberry Cocktail, Creameez Paradise Punch, Shimmerz Iris My Case, Shimmerz Slow Ocean and Creameez Boogie Boardin' Blue to paint a few cut file branches and my title.




Once I had all my pieces prepped, I started to play with placement.  Because my photos had a specific direction, I decided that my embellishments were going to go with that same flow.

After I had everything glued on, I used Inklingz Miner Miner 49er and Spritz Pipe Cream from the June Color Kit to sprinkle all over the page for a little gold contrast.



That is all that I have for you today.  Thank you so much for stopping by!  Here is the process video, if you'd like to see how this layout came together:


I hope you have a great one and I'll check back in soon.
