At the end of this post I put some oldies on for all the newbies to my blog. Thanks for reading, hope you enjoyed this blog featuring Tattered Angels Glimmer Mist. don't forget to comment on THIS Tattered Angels Blog post for a chance to win on their site. (tell them I or SCT sent you)
Here's a few teasers... (oh and btw, I forgot to find out what time they scheduled the post for, so our timing may be off. So just keep checking back. oops :))
Like what you see so far? Well how about a step by step on this blog?
I started with a background that I blended with Turquoise blue & Juneberry. I added a hint of Sweet Pea. Then I placed a Tattered Angels screen along the bottom. I barely used the screen, just to kinda create a bed of flowers. then I stamped 2 flower stems. LOVE the look of this stamp!!!!
Then I used a heidi swapp alphabet mask and sprayed another layer of mist over it. Then I peeled back the layers.
go here to see the rest of the layout. (I know I am bad! but I love to be able to show you all the fantastic sites there are out there. :))
Ok, this one I wont be such a tease. I started creating the background the same way as all the others. This time I misted patina, tattered leather and bahama blue. I have a hint of another blue in their, but for the life of me can't remember which one it is. I paired the mist with Technique Tuesday chip board. no brainer. Their white chipboard absorbs the mist and makes it pop! The chipboard is all Tattered Leather.
I layered the Core'dinations cardstock. (eek...did I share with you I made their DT? I am still in awe and excited. Just need to purchase more sandpaper. :)))
Anyways, I brought in the cream wood grain one to break up all the monotone I had going on. Love layering tones of the same colour, but I o love adding little punches, like the brown. Here is a few close ups.
See the close up of the layered Core'dinations.
I totally LOVE these Maya Road journaling sheers. The Glitz tulle just added that special touch.
Here's a few that I may have shared with you before.
