This is Two - Shimmerz

Hello Shimmerz fans! Wow it is April already! So excited for Spring…it makes me want to add some fun Shimmerz Color to my projects! Today I have a layout to share. I used the Flying Unicorn April kit and added in some yummy Shimmerz color.

After I had my layout created I start to add color. First I used some Blue Me Away Aqua Huez behind the clusters to create a shaded look.

Next I added some Coloringz in Punked Up Purple and some Valentino drips.

I finished it all off with some splats of Penny for Your Thoughts and Giddy About Green Inklingz. Such a fun color combo!

On your next Shimmerz order, mention my name (in the notes to merchant) and Stacey will send you a sample for FREE!!!! Swing on by our Facebook page for more! Take care and happy scrapping!

Spring with Petaloo

Hello Petaloo Fans! It is Spring in Canada and today I have a layout to celebrate the arrival of Spring. There is nothing like finally going out for a walk as the weather gets warmer. I have used papers from my April Flying Unicorn kit and lots of yummy Petaloo Blooms and trims to finish it all off.

My clusters are a variety of Petaloo flowers. Pieces from the Penny Lane Mixed Blossoms and Mini Daisys with a few Chantilly Hydrangeas and pieces from a Berry Spray. The center piece flowers are from the Burlap Ivory set…the details on them are amazing!

Look at those gorgeous flowers…what a beautiful mix! I also added pieces of lace from the Fancy Trims Cream set.

One last close up of the beautiful flowers and trims!

April Challenge - Creative Embellishments

Hi everyone! A new month means a new Challenge at Creative Embellishments! The inspiration photo for this month is musical and to use a song as a title…I went with Adelle’s Hello with a beach themed card. Creative Embellishments has so many Nautical themed chippys to choose from. They add the perfect touch to my Nautical card. The papers are from Prima and the pretty flowers are Petaloo, from the Flying Unicorn store.

I tucked in pieces from the Sea Weed 2 set and added in a Nautical Compass to finish it all off. The chippys are finished with a coat of gesso and some added Shimmerz mist for a touch of color. I also used the Distressed Text Stamp on the background for added texture.

Don’t forget to join in this months challenge for your chance to win a store gift certificate! Check out the store for all the NEW chippys! Make sure to share all of your creations on our Facebook page. Take care and happy Scrapping!
