Yikes friends, it's been a while since ?I took the time to write a post, so sorry. You can tell that spring is here (or somewhere nearby considering the foot of snow we got on the weekend!), because I tend to be out and a bout and not sitting on the computer surfing and posting. I have tons of projects all going at once and more stuff to do outside too, but I did have a quick little fun thing I got done a few weeks ago, just never got around to showing you.

Isn't that pretty?? It's on kraft chipboard. Read on to find out what colour that is! |
More Glimmer misting by me! I really wanted a few other colours, and I thought I'd experiment with a couple of combinations.
|
I picked Metallic bright red, plum, and Inca gold. |
|
|
The metallic red I just mixed with water 1 part paint to 3 parts water, and it turned out amazing! |
|
For the plum, I wanted a chalk like shimmer, so I added a bit of wisteria acrylic to the mix. |
|
This is the plum against the green I made a few weeks ago, on white cardstock, very pretty. |
I went to the dollar store and found these awesome masks, they were not the type that adheres to your work for a more defined image, so I just sprayed a little bit of Elmers Spray glue on it and it worked perfect on the cardstock I then sprayed with my glimmer mists. That's how I got the plum/green image on my cardstock.
|
I mixed some inca gold with antique gold paint to get a more yellow shimmer. This one is my least favourite, but I still love it! |
|
The gold against the plum on white cardstock, it turns out gorgeous! |
|
All the colours on the naked chipboard, love them! |
So having fun, cause all those odd shaped chipboard albums that I was thinking I'd have to paint or try to cover somewhat, will now get a good dose of lovely shimmer, yay!
Anyhow, have a great day everyone....more post will follow, I promise!
I'll be linking up to all of these, so go ahead and check them out too, great blogs!!!
Cheers,
Viviana
