Mixed Media Workshop at Lasting Impression

Hello everyone!!! Just want to share the mixed media layouts we created at
Lasting Impression last Saturday. 

First layout

On the layout above I use burlap tape for my background.
I overlap the tapes in different lengths then I painted gesso using a dry brush. I misted the background 
then brushed some glimmer glaze on random areas. I also used the glimmer glaze to 
create some splatters.





Second layout

On this layout I used two stencils with fiber paste as my medium. Misted it then added some splatters and some circles using lids of bottles.





Third layout

On this layout I use stencil for my background with fiber paste.
I also use a stamp to give the layout more texture. 

Here I use circle and banner punchers.

This is the hidden page under the first to photos.


Last layout

On this layout I also use stencils with gesso. The cameras are made from a stencil with light molding paste that I mixed with a little blue acrylic paint.

Pretty Paper Studio Product Spotlight

Hi everyone!! Ime here for PRETTY PAPER STUDIO Product Spotlight Tuesday.
Let me tell you guys more about Tim Holtz Distress Glitter..... 
It's in a 18 grams container with 24 beautiful colors to choose from. It looks like
vintage glass glitter but it's not glass. When you pour the glitter on a piece of paper, it's flat and not impressive but when you sprinkle it on top of an adhesive.... WOW!!!! The effect is just so pretty, almost like diamonds.

So what's the difference between distress stickles,
distress dry glitter and distress glitter???


The main difference is the coverage as you can see above and the particle size of the glitter also differs. Distress Stickles and Distress Dry Glitter have different sized particles while the Distress Glitter have uniform sized particles.



Let me share 2 projects using Distress Glitter.

My first project is a mixed media card using Eco Park "Sweet Girl" paper line.
                      
                       
On this image I added glossy accents to the flowers then sprinkled some distress glitter over them.


Here are some of the elements that I put together. All from Eco Park "Sweet Girl" collection.
I fussy cut the girl image and sentiments then added some stickers.

                       
            Here I created a background using Crafters Workshop Stencil "Climbing Vines" with white stone medium.
I misted it with Mister Huey's "First Kiss". While the medium is still wet I added some glossy accents
on random areas then sprinkled it with Distres Glitter "Peacock Feathers"



Here is my second project.



It's an envelop made using an envelope punch board by We R Memory Keepers (available at PPS)





On the photo above, I used multi medium gloss with my stencil then sprinkled a mixture of peacock feathers and rock candy ditress glitter.When it's dry I misted it with Mister Huey's First Kiss mist then added some sticker elements from Echo Park Sweet Girl collection. I also used a wooden frame, added glossy accents to the inner corners then sprinkled it with peacock distress glitter.



On this photo, I fussy cut some flowers for the Sweet Girl collection, outlined the edges with glossy accents then sprinkled rock candy distress glitter over them.  The effect is so beautiful. 

All products are available at Pretty Paper Studio.

Happy crafting everyone!!!
