For The Shimmerz Paints Design Team, Painting Is Poetry That Is Seen Rather Than Felt

 

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

To make this page, I stenciled Prima Platinum Texture Paste with a small spatula onto 49 and Market paper. I taped on watercolor paper under the image to make it stronger and to lie flat, and  made a mat also. I took a piece of corrugated cardboard,ripped some of the paper off, and brushed on white gesso. While it was wet I sprinkled on UTEE and heated it. I added layers of corrugated cardboard in between the layers. I taped on a flower, chipboard, and a shell, and taped and glued on beads and other items. I brushed on Shimmerz Paints.I rubbed on gold,blue,and pearl mica powder on different  areas. 

To add visual interest I added glass beads,sequins,gold leaf,sisal,tulle, crystals,a shell,pearls, glass glitter, chipboard,flowers,and bling and metal from my stash.

                                              A  lot of the items are glued on individually with Glossy Accents.        

         

The flower to the right of the photo is made of polyester chiffon. I cut 4 layers of concentric circles and heated each of the edges seperately with a candle,I sewed the layers together and glued a pearl on top.
