Now, how about a peek at what I have created for you all today




Lots of gorgeous PRIMA products including some of the new Resistant Canvas, Mask, Resin - Bird Homes & Small Birds and blooms - including: #553487 Medley Star Gazer,  #552893 Ceylon White Wedding, Gillian Flowers #552985 Aqua & #552978 Lilac, Melody #552923 White.

I have used TATTERED ANGELS Glimmer Mists to alter the PRIMA Resistant Canvas and flowers and to enhance a masked element.


To create the background, I have used the PRIMA #551629 Resistant Canvas - Alla Prima

I first attached the Resistant canvas vines to cardstock and then misted with 'Timeless Lilac' Glimmer Mist.
'Patina' Glimmer Mist was then randomly misted over the top and with a paint brush and again with 'Timeless Lilac', more depth was added to the various leaves and flowers.  

The white resistant markings that show give a lovely subtle effect.


The gate element which sits behind my photo was first created with texture paste and the PRIMA #550042 Mask


Once the texture paste was dried, I then misted lightly with 'Turquoise Blue' Glimmer Mist. A touch of 'Timeless Lilac' Glimmer Mist was added around the edges with a paint brush.  The gate was then cut out and attached.   


To coordinate, Glimmer Mist 'Timeless Lilac' was also used to alter the PRIMA White SA-002/1 Mini Roses. 

A touch of shine and shimmer was added to the PRIMA Resin Bird with TATTERED ANGELS Glimmer Glaze 'Icicle'.  

I also added more depth to the little pixie's hat and top with 'Patina' Glimmer Mist - again painted with a paint brush.  Glimmer Glaze was then also applied when dried.


The Resistant Canvas Scalloped Borders were coloured with Glimmer Mist 'Timeless Lilac' and then attached around the outer edges of the layout.
