Spritzing with Shimmer Paint

Uncategorized

1 Sep
Hello, Crafters.
I made today’s card so I could show you what a great spritzer
 the new Shimmer Paint makes. Unfortunately, it’s like trying 
to photograph Wink of Stella Clear Glitter,i.e. nigh
 on impossible! 
 I took three extra photographs of me holding my card at obscure 
angles, and taking close-ups and there’s only a hint of the
 shimmer in one photograph! I also combined this card with
 using the Delightfully Delicate Laser-Cut Specialty 
Designer Series Paper (DSP). 

I felt sure I’d already used this design from the DSP but I can’t 
find a copy of it in my file! I decided to colour this card
 front piece using one of our sponge rollers with Coastal Cabana
 Ink, and it worked like a dream.
 
 I used my Heat Tool to make sure the ink was dry before I 
spritzed the layer. I used approximately 50% water and 50% 
rubbing alcohol in my spritzer and sprayed it inside my
 homemade “spritzing” box! 

I used my Heat Tool again to dry the layer off, and the resulting
 glimmer is fabulous! The DSP behind the Laser Cut Design is
 from Tranquil Textures, and although Stampin’ Up! list this 
pack of DSP as blending with Mint Macaroon and Soft Sea Foam,
 I think it also looks great with Coastal Cabana!

 I chose the sentiment from Beautiful You, and the flowers
 are from Beautiful Bouquet Stamp Set and die cut with the 
co-ordinating Framelits called Bouquet Bunch. I decided to 
add some sprigs of leaves using the Sprig Punch which 
will be available in the new Christmas catalogue which 
goes live on 5th September 2018. 
 I punched out three sprigs using our Vellum Cardstock, and 
then spritzed them with the Shimmer Paint. I somewhat
 over-spritzed and they were drenched! I dried them off
 using my Heat Tool again!
 The shimmer looks fabulous but it can hardly be seen in the 
photographs which is really disappointing! To decorate the
 inside of the card I added a layer of Coastal Cabana and
 a layer of Whisper White Cardstock, and then adhered
 another Vellum Sprig and a Coastal Cabana flower. 

 Above is the only photograph where you can see some glimmer!
 Please imagine what that looks like when sprayed all over the 
Laser Cut Design, and the Vellum Sprigs, and you’ll 
understand what I’ve been trying to describe! LOL!!
 I hope you give it a try, even ifonly to see what I’m 
talking about! LOL! I hope you have a great weekend, 
and until tomorrow, happy crafting.
JanB.
