Have you checked out the Glitz blog lately? Gorgeous, gorgeous, gorgeous!! I cannot wait for all of their new papers & embellies to come out!! But in the meantime.....I played with some of their papers from the Laced With Grace collection, courtesy of my Swirlydoos kit!! And I've decided to enter Challenge #4. The only requirement besides using some Glitz products, was to use inks & background stamps.
Cute As A Button
Lots of tearing, ripping and distressing of these gorgeous papers....so far my fave collection!! Of course, I used Tim's Distress Inks in Vintage Photo & Walnut Stain. I also used a few of my background stamps (Glitz & Tim Holtz), with Stazon Ink in Timber Brown, on my base paper. I then matted the pic of Mason, on a Glitz Paper Layer.
Clock & gears were cut from a Tim/Sizzix die, and left naked. Chipboard was purchased at Wal-Mart (online). I left the 'innards' of the clock and covered with another Paper Layer, this time the crossword puzzle. Part of my title was situated in the boxes, using Glitz Orange Teeny Alphas. The butterflies were cut from the papers, and Distress Stickled (green) or Crackled (black). Flowers are I Am Roses gardenias, which I misted with Lindy's Stamp Gang Sprays in Tiger Lily Red Orange & Wake Me Up Before You Go Gold. Leaves are from Prima. A Glitzer was cut to form a ribbon and added under the edge of the flower.
I also used a Glitz Whatnot, and trimmed off the parts I wanted to use, and then inked over top with one of Tim's background stamps.
Heidi Swapp ghost alphas, were stamped (topside) and then alcohol inked (Ranger) on the underside, using Sunset Orange & Lettuce. A little spritz of LSG spray, adds a bit of shimmer.
Easy peasy right? So go on, head on over to the Glitz blog, and enter this challenge!!
Love ya,
Lynne
