There's Nobody Else 12x12 Layout | Shimmerz Paints DT

Hello Shimmerz Fans!

Nicole here and today I have a different type of layout to share with you!
For this weeks project, I'm using my Shimmerz to create my own patterned paper to create a large title with!  
I started by painting 3 sheets of 6x6 watercolor paper with Shimmerz Spritz Granny Grey, Vibez Grey Flannel and Vibez Sweet Heart. After dry, I then used the Large Jane alphabet stamp from Elle's Studio to stamp out all the letters that I needed to spell out my very large and long title. I then fussy cut all of the letters and spelled my title out.


Once I had my alphas in place, I ran them thru my sewing machine and stitched a straight line thru all the letters.  Because that took up most of the room on my page, I then had two areas left that I was able to use to add my two photos.  I embellished those photos with some bits and pieces from my stash then added two of the Shimmerz Dotz to call my layout complete! Here are a few additional close ups as well as the process video from my YouTube channel!











The Shimmerz products used on today's layout are:
Vibez Grey Flannel
Spritz Granny Grey

Thanks so much for joining me today!
I hope you had fun and got inspired!

Back To The Good Stuff | Shimmerz Paints

Hello shimmery friends and happy Friday!

Nicole here and today I have a back to school layout to share with you using a few mists and and two Dazzlerz!  Before we get started, here's a quick look at my final project:


 My inspiration for this layout was a cut file that I received with my Elle's Studio monthly kit. That's the large and small apples on this project!  I created my own stencil using plain white cardstock and my Silhouette and misted the fruit part of the apple with Vibez Rose Gold Red. Once dry, I mixed together Dazzlerz in Sour Apple and Gummy Bear Blue to get the darker green and texture of the stems and leaves.  Here's a close up:
  

After all of the little apples were dry, I added my large apple which was a combination of Vibez Rose Gold Red and also Razzeltazzel Berry and Spritz Caribbean Sunset with a highlight of Vibez Sunset Strip. I also used the same Dazzelerz mixture for the stem and leaf.

Next, I added some splatters and used the packaging technique on the top left and bottom right of the white areas of the background for another pop of color. Lastly, I finished my project off with large Vicki Boutin stickers, two of my favorite first day of school photos and some adorable pencil stickers, enamel dots and journaling.  Here are a few additional close ups:
