I have been having so much messy fun putting these products through their paces, that I have too many projects to share! Yay me.... I am ahead of my game (first time for everything!)
So without further ado here is my first project, a scrapbook page featuring my 2 boys:
I used the Embossing Powders as well as the coordinating Shimmer Sprays on my chippies to get a metallic "grunged-up" look, they worked a treat!
So how did I do it I hear you ask?
Too easy!
I shall explain:
First the background piece (which is left over alphabet "backing"..... yes I keep everything...you just never know!).
I gave it a spray randomly with a couple of Shimmer Spray colours:
"Singing the Blues", "Dusty Charcoal" and "Steel".
These sprays gave the raw chipboard a touch of colour and a hint of shimmer, I wanted more texture, so I then embossed sections of the panel with embossing powders in "Steel", "Dusty Charcoal" and "Snow White".
The Snow White gave a glittery effect.
On the Wings I did pretty much the same process, except instead of spraying I used a brush to colour the details. I just wanted the wing tips embossed, so I used an embossing pen and the
"Steel" Embossing Powder to achieve the look!
Take a closer peek:
So what is left? The chipboard words of course!
These are just embossed in the usual manner in the "Steel" colour then I sprayed the "Dusty Charcoal" and "Singing The Blues" Simmer Spray on top to create a bit of colour variation.
Lastly the Title:
I embossed with "Steel" and "Snow White" to get a sparkle happening. Then sprayed with
"Singing The Blues" to get a tinge of blue to coordinate with the background.
