Thank You Shimmerz | Ericka Strange

Happy mid week! Ericka here with my last post for Shimmerz Paints. I've had so much fun playing with these wonderful products and being part of the Design Team. However, sometimes life gets really busy especially when starting a new job. Before I go I have a couple of cards I made using Vibez.

I love this big thanks die from Concord & 9th. For my first and second card I sprayed Vibez on photo paper to get a vibrant color.

For this card I used Vibez in Jeni B Bleu and Hermit the Frog. Once the color was dry, I then die cut the sentiment out and adhered it to the card base with foam tape.

For my second card I used Pink Stilettos Coloringz and Sweet Heart Vibez with photo paper.

I added some fun hearts I had in my stash.

For my last card I used watercolor paper and sprayed Vibez in Hermit the Frog and Sweet Heart and Lil Yellow School Bus Coloringz.

The colors are a bit softer but I still love the beautiful look.

Thanks for stopping by and I hope you have a wonderful day and the rest of your week. Don't forget the sale going on until the end of the month.

Birthday girl with Anna Komenda

Hello Shimmerz fans. It's Anna here with my November inspiration. Can you believe that it's almost a year since I joined Shimmerz Team? Now you too have a chance because Shimmerz is having a DT call!!! Don't forget to send your application. You have time till December 11'th.

Today I want to share with you delicate and soft layout with mixed media background.

I used few Cremeez and Inklingz to create this background. I simply applied them on slightly wet watercolor paper. This kind of a paper is a key when you want to get those soft transitions between colors. It can handle much more water and doesn't dry so fast like regular cardstock.

I like adding splashes with mists. I simply unscrew the mister and splash with the tube.

With mixed media background you don't need much of papers to create stunning page. I used patterned paper to fussy cut flowers and use them as embellishments.

Cremeez and Inklingz are very sparkly and they look so pretty after they are dry,

As always there is a process video for you :)

I used:

Cremeez "Cheeky pink"

Cremeez "Thunderstorm"

Inklingz "Miner miner 49'er"

Vibez "Sweet heart"

That's all for today. Remember to mention my name while placing an order in Shimmerz Store. You will get one free mini product :)

Queen of the beach | Anna Komenda

Hello everyone. It's Anna here with my August project and process video. Summer is my favourite season and I love creating summery, colorful pages. I am also a big fan of latest flamingo, pineapple and cacti trend. I do not travel to the very exotic places but still I like to use them on my pages.

Today I went crazy with pink and flamingos and I created a whole flamingo background.

I used Silhouette Cameo cut outs as my stencil. It's a really fun way to extend your possibilities. You can use a whole background stencil or just a small elements. This kind of stencil won't last long but let's be honest - how often do you use the same stencil? And I can still use the flamingos in second project :)

With those pretty birdies in the background I had to minimize the composition around my picture. I didin't want to cover too much. I use only small scrap of paper as a frame for my picture and some smaller die cuts to embellish page a little.

I also added some little hearts using a stencil and a Dazzlerz paste. It works perfect with details and I love how shiny it is. It looks like cotton candy. I also add yellow splatters using Shimmerz paint.

As always I have a video for you. The page is very easy and simple to make so the video isn't long. I hope it will inspire you to play with your mists and stencils.

That's all for today. Thank you for stopping by and see you in September with another project and video.
