The August Blog Hop is underway on the CrafTangles Blog HERE and it's all about glimmer paste!
I have to admit I had a lot of fun playing with this medium and using it in different ways. I love anything that sparkles as you know so this was right up my street!
For my first card I decided to use a black base that I sprayed with a shimmer mist. I then used the glimmer paste through the cloud stencil. As you can see, it dried with a green tint on the black even though it went on white. I stamped my image and used a couple of my new chameleon pens to colour in the bear then stamped the sentiment on a black card mat.
For my second card, I used the exact same fairy dust glimmer paste as my first card above. This time through a different stencil to give the impression of waves on a distressed ink backing I created. You can see how the tint of green that was so apparent on the black is much more subtle and there is more of the white. Once again I used my chameleon pens on the stamped and fussy cut image and added a sentiment before mounting on to a die cut mat.
For my final card I smooshed distress oxides for the background then added green and orange glimmer paste through stencils. I added dots to finish and stamped the sentiment before mounting on to a black card base.
I hope you can see just some of the ways glimmer paste can be used as highlights, backgrounds and a focal point.
If you are on the blog hop then here are the other blogs you need to visit in order to win one of 2 goody bags! Good luck!
