My Sweet Nate

I dug out a box of chipboard letters (tons of them!) that I've had forever to finish up this layout that I did a year ago! Do any of you do that? Start a layout and then put it aside for a while? :)

On the "My Sweet" letters I used the new Shimmerz Pearlz. I painted them with Ballet Slipper and then stippled them with Pearl. I love the opaqueness of this product!

On the "Nate" letters I used the new Shimmerz Vibez in Before Dawn which is a wicked shimmery dark charcoal, almost black. I can't believe the saturation you get with just one coat of Vibez on raw chipboard. Amazing!

 

 

 

 


Hmmmm, now that I look at the layout again, I think it needs some handwritten journaling strips on the bottom left! I'm always adding more to my layouts after they are "done"!

Blessings and love,
Lori

I love this LO very cute! And I love the way you're taking chip board letters to another level with the Shimmerz!! Where is that darling little playing card from on the bottom left?

He's so precious!!!

hey sweet pea! Your little Nate is just too dang cute and way cool on those letters! You totally rock the shimmerz. I have loads of naked chipboard that may just be screaming my name now! And to answer your question, yes, I do have layouts and cards and projects that I start, set aside and forget about. one day. your layout looks fantastic!
