Color your own world | Rocío López

Hi!!

Rocío here with a new project and process video for Shimmerz Paints as part of their YouTube Education Team. For this time I made a scrapbook layout and I have to say that I really love the outcome. 

I start the project cutting a few paint brushes with a free cut file from Paper Issues. Then, I added some color to the handle with Paste-eez A Little Nutty. 

To create the paint strokes in the background I used Inklingz Plum Crazy, Shimmerz Peacock's Plume, Shimmerz Evergreen, Shimmerz Sunny and Shimmerz Magenta. 

I had to add splatters and for this, I used a few Vibez that coordinate with the colors I had already used: Vibez Grape Escape, Vibez Deep Blue Sea and Vibez Rose Gold Red. 

I thought that the title "Color your own world" was perfect for the page so I added it using a few adhesives alphabets. 

For the final decorations I used stickers from collection Cute Girl and Urban Chic and some splatters with Shimmerz Christmas Cheer because I love that gold! 

Here you can see another close up picture and now I leave you with the process video on how I've created this scrapbooking page. 

I hope you like it and see you soon!

PRODUCTS USED:

VIBEZ: Deep Blue Sea, Rose Gold Red and Grape Escape.
SHIMMERZ: Magenta, Sunny, Evergreen, Peacock's Plume and Christmas Cheer.

PASTE-EEZ: A Little Nutty.

Can Spring inspired projects produce Spring weather?

Hi Everyone, it is Beck BT here again this week.  I'm still trying to encourage Spring weather to hit us down in Melbourne with a love of sharing spring inspired projects.  I'm hoping it might work something like a rain dance because gee the weather has been so cold windy and wet so far this season. This week I am sharing with you a card with a cool wood veneer altering technique using Shimmerz products of course!!

I've created a video so you can see how I altered the wood veneer as well as how my card came together.

Shimmerz Products used:

Texturez paste in Patina

Vibes Sprays in 'Taupe of the mornin'

Here are some step pictures getting you nice and up close to that wood veneer altering process.

The process:

Add Texturez paste to the wood veneer piece liberally.

Apply a heat gun to the area allowing the paste to bubble up and then shrink back down

Apply a spray of the Shimmerz Vibes spray in a contrasting color

Wipe over very gently with a wet wipe to remove some of the vibes spray and allow the paste color to show through

Add as a beautiful embellishment to your project as seen on this card

It was so much fun creating this card, so I can't help but share more pictures.  I adore how the wood veneer pieces came.  They made the perfect accent to the sweet florals on the card.

What do you get inspired by?  Maybe you can find some inspiration from your local weather!

 Thanks so much for heading over to the blog today to check out my project!  

Don't forget to mention my name when you order for some free product!  WOOT!  

Till next time
