For the whole month of October, the Shimmerz Blog will be showing off Pink projects created the Design Team. We want you to get involved too! We want you to create projects using ANY Pink Shimmerz or Spritz that you have! Any shade of pink. Then, upload it to the Shimmerz Flickr Group! Make sure and tell us what Shimmerz product you have used. Each Design Team member will choose their favorite project, and each winner will receive something Pink from Shimmerz! We are excited to see your Pink creations.
Here are a couple of cards that I made for the Challenge. I used Ruby, Cotton Candy and Licorice Spritz on these flowers. I was inspired by the beautiful flowers that Jeni B. made on her Shimmerz tutorial video.
We will definitely be making some of these pretty flowers at my Shimmerz Ed Class on the 23! Hope you can make it to that. In the meantime upload your pink creations!
Welcome to the second stop in the Shimmerz Video Blog Hop! Hopefully you arrived here from my fabulous team leader, Jeni Boisvert's blog. If not then get yourself back to the Shimmerz Paints blog and follow along our blog hop route! If you follow along, you have an opportunity to win one of five of our whole new Vintage collection which is available for purchase today! If you are on the right track then read on...
The Shimmerz Paints Education Team will be bringing you a tutorial video each month to give you lots of tips and techniques on how to use our fabulous products! We will also be providing online and in store classes featuring Shimmerz products! My first video is a little rough, so cut me some slack and be kind! I hope you are all bilingual, meaning you speak Bostonian AND English so that you will be able to understand me!
September's video is all about the new release of the Vintage collection from Shimmerz Paints. There are four new colors of Shimmerz and three new colors of Shimmerz Spritz in new little Miniz which are smaller than the original. The colors are beautiful and I had so much fun working with them!
Here are the two canvases that I have created:
The first one "The Girls" is a canvas I did for a 40th birthday gift for my Bestie Becky. She emailed me a picture of herself with her two girls and I wanted to create something special for her. Just click on the images to make them larger and to see the detail.
This canvas "Through Thick & Thin" is for my other BFF, Denise. I create a layout for her for her wedding anniversary every year and this one is for #5! She had a photo shoot done by the FABULOUS photographer, Chea Lamb and I asked for permission to use one on my canvas. You must check out Chea's photography here.
I also want to give a little shout out to Teresa Collins and say thanks for the Friendship collection that I used on these projects. I love this line and it was so sweet of her to send it to me!!
Ok, lastly here is my video! Oh, how I cringe when I watch and listen to myself, but I guess I'll get used to it! Now, pay attention to when I mention my favorite color from the new line! You will need to remember this for a chance to win the whole Vintage collection! Make sure you click "pause" on my music playlist before viewing.
Leave a comment here on my blog and I will pick one lucky reader/viewer on Friday to receive a jar of beautiful Shimmerz Paint! (Colors will vary)
Now, hop on over to Tanisha Long's blog for the third stop in our blog hop and watch her brilliant video tutorial!
A couple of weeks ago, my friend Jenny and I had an afternoon at the mall. It was a such a blast because we both just love all things sparkly. We found some fun black and gold shoes and she talked me into buying them. Of course then we needed to find some fun faux gold jewelry to match which we very affectionately now refer to as "ghetto gold"! lol. We got all glammed up and went out that evening to dinner with the girls.
I am once again designing for Shimmerz Paints and I am so excited to be working with such talented gals. I knew I had to use my Shimmerz for this layout! I used Beeswax Shimmerz and Candle Light Shimmerz on the title letter stickers. I jazzed up the plain flowers with Beeswax Shimmerz as well. I used Coal Shimmerz on the black button and Candle Light Shimmerz on the journaling spot. I added a little sparkle to the digital frames directly to the photos with the Beeswax Shimmerz. The paint gives the frames a great 3-D effect!
I hope you will stop by the Shimmerz Blog today and check out the new summer releases! I love them!
