DIY Painted Embellishments | May Color Kitz | Melissa Minor

Hi crafty friends! I am so excited to share a new layout with you. I used the beautiful May Color Kitz. Everything included in the kit is perfect for documenting Spring memories. I love the floral patterned paper included in the kit. I wanted to bring more attention to it. So, I decided to make some floral embellishments that matched the paper. I dug through my stash and pulled out an old Close to My Heart die set (this company is now closed). I painted a sheet of mixed media cardstock with the Bahama Mama Inklingz. I painted another sheet using Olive Branch Spritz. These are both available in the May 2025 Paint Kit. Then I used my dies and created flower embellishments. I added a little extra detail to the flowers by brushing a hint of orange with Punkin Pie. I think the floral embellishment clusters turned out gorgeous! 
Next I started working on my layout. I used a cut file that I purchased from Scrapbook Generation/Allison Davis titled Triangle Pattern #2. A few of the triangles that I cut out I painted using Butter Believe It-Shimmerz. I love the sparkle and shine that the Shimmerz Paints adds. Some of my triangles have the floral patterned paper and others have the Butter Believe It. I adhered this to my page behind 2 other strips of the patterned paper included in the Color Kitz. 
I pulled out a few embellishments that matched the paper and adhered to the layout using foam tape. I also used a few of the sequins from the May 2025 Bonus Bundle. I have a full tutorial on YouTube linked below.
