Precious, by Amanda Hartmann

Hi all!

Welcome to my share day! I recently got my hands on some of the embossing bundle packs - Amazing colours! Today's page is inspired by the Tuscan bundle. Stamping, heat embossing, combined with some water colour effects (using Colour Shimmer Dusts and Colour Mica Powder) - inspired by Vicki Boutin as well!

Here is a sneak - look at that shine! (and that bee!)

Here is a list of products I used:

* Heavy weight White cardstock

* Tuscan bundle of Embossing powders - I used these colours: Wildberry, Teal and Tuscan

* Colour Shimmer Dusts - Candy, Peacock and Midnight

* Colour Mica Powder - Bling

Here is how I did it.

Stamp flowers and heat emboss with Wildberry embossing powder.

Add leaf stamping and heat emboss with Tuscan embossing powder.

Stamp more flowers and heat emboss with Teal embossing powder.

I keep and mix my Colour Shimmer Dusts in these trays. I can spritz them with water to reactivate the colour after they have dried. 

For the flowers, I painted the red ones using Candy, which I mixed with some Midnight to darken it.

For the turquoise flowers, I painted them using Peacock mixed with some Midnight to darken it as well.

I added splatters of the colours also.

 You can also see here how I added different colours to the flowers, and used a very watered down Peacock to paint around and between the flowers.

Lastly, I mixed some Colour Mica Powder - BLING of course, with some water and painted and splattered gold to the page. I painted over the flowers also, to add some more shine to them.

I also used the Teal embossing powder to heat emboss a chipboard word for the title.

Here is the final page!

And a heap of close ups -- tried to capture the shimmer and shine of this!

A very precious page of a very special little pony and her Mum!

Thanks for looking,
