New paper layouts

I went on a scrapbooking weekend and have a few to share now. Some I have loaded at fortheluvofart.com and  at awalkdownmemorylane.net  I also posted them in my photo album on Facebook.

The supplies and close ups are below each layout. Thanks for looking






Fierce @ 40
Supplies Used:

This is my interpretation of Ed Hardy style using Shimmerz:


I hand drew the flower and the banner, painted both with shimmerz Jilted Jade (Paint pot)and mixed with a chocolate berry color of smooch for the flower

I also used a Tim Holtz stamp with the Jilted jade painted onto it to stamp little dots in the upper left and lower right corners

The black paper is Coordinations Black Magic Mantra, but I took the Tim Holtz embossing folder Rays and put the jilted jade directly in it to color the splat areas. Then I hand painted the rays with the jilted jade.

The rest is Prima bling, Zva creative black bling swirl, lots of Basic grey rub ons, Glitz glam rub ons, Pink paislee rub ons. Rainboots alpha for the @ sign, and the Glitter Jewelery box alpha. Fierce is a cricut cut alpha and the true type font is Be Safe.

New layouts: K & Company Boy scout paper & American Crafts...





Got a few more done this month. I really like the K & Company Specialty paper pad that is Boy scouting paper. So I did another layout very simple though, but I like it.

I used 1 paper for the background and two others and punched 1" circles and mimicked the design element on the paper. I also used the following:

Cosmo Cricket Mr. Campy Rub ons and the Ready set chip set- tent, hikers and alphas
Pink Paislee leaf from any of the chipboard sets: Fetching, Captivating, Fascinating etc. I peeled off the printed paper and did the following on it and the other items.
Tech: I painted it with cream craft paint, used the copper dabber then used the versamark pad with woodgrain Hero arts stamp and stamped over the letters, and images. Then I sprinkled Brown embossing powder on- heated. Love the effect.










I loved this al a mode paper set from American Crafts and wanted to use it. Three papers were used from the set. I also used White glitter, Amercian Crafts thickers and the heart is a Doodlebug heart from their Hopscotch alphas. The swirls are Prima say it with Crystals. I just cut alot of things out and used pop up adhesive. The journaling spot is Maya Road.


This last layout I finally completed yesterday. I have to say rolling those paper scrolls are NOT easy. Maybe because it was a varnish/glitter paper and thicker, but even the non glitter paper was challenging. I still like the effect.






Supplies used: Core'dinations NEW Gemstones shimmer paper Garnet
SEI Mimosa paper and Kaisercraft Flutterby collection paper -Long wing
SEI Mimosa Chiplets (Flowers), SEI Mimosa Brads
American Crafts pink felt alpha- then painted with Spiced Cider shimmerz paint, then added Art glitter gold over the top.

Eskimo Kisses Card kit & Shimmerz

I got out the Basic Grey Eskimo Kisses Card kit out this weekend. The photos aren't perfect, lighting wasn't working for me today, but I wanted to share. Hopefully you can see a bit in the close ups the shimmerz.

My favorite Shimmerz spritz so far is Concrete- it gives an over all shine with little to no color. I did use the Hi Ho Silver Blingz ( the much shinier paint pot) for the edge area of the speaker bubble that says Merry Christmas.

I really saturated all the cards, then dabbed the blots with paper towels. I have to say the blots didn't stay and blended fabulously. They dried very fast, and as they dried I put something heavy on them to keep them from rippling too much. I could have let the weights on longer though.

Thanks for looking.
