Hello Shimmerz Fanz!
Nicole here and today I'm sharing a sneak of something exciting and fun coming to the Shimmerz Facebook group! Here's a little hint of what the surprise is without giving it away....first, you MUST be a part of the Shimmerz Facebook group, second, you'll need to be in the group by the first day of summer, which is next Friday, June 21st and last, but certainly not least, Paige Evans maaaaay play a role! LOL! Before I give away the whole surprise, here's a look at my layout for today's project:
For today's project, I'm taking a BEAUTIFUL cut file and using just a portion of it to create a multi photo layout. I did to the traditional backing of the cut file with a few patterned papers, however, I also created my own pieces to paper piece with using just three Shimmerz paints! The colors I used today were all three original Shimmerz in Pip, Pip Cherry-O, Anchors Away and Bumbly Bee. I used these in various saturation levels on the beach ball, sun and also the beach umbrella. Here are a few close ups....
I did use papers from a Paige Evans collection to back the flip flops, star fish and sand bucket. To add another layer, that didn't take too much away from the focus of the squares, I used Paste-eez Puttin' On The Glitz behind each of the nine squares to add another touch of shimmer and brighten the blue background paper.
Lastly, I used different bits and bobs from a few of Paige's collections to embellish the rest of my layout! Here's one last close up:
