Check out the new and improved Shimmerz website!

Shimmerz has a new and improved website!! Here is the link: Shimmerz. You can order all of your favorite colors of Shimmerz, Blingz and Spritz directly from the site!

I tried something different with Spritz: I used removable Scotch tape as a mask.

Photobucket

I simply added strips of scotch tape to white cardstock in a criss-cross pattern. I made sure the tape strips were nice and secure, then I sprayed four different colors of Spritz over the tape. I used Plum Pudding, Sapphire, Sea Foam and Olive Branch. I pulled off the tape, then I hand-stitched around the edge to give it some definition. I was left with this beautiful white criss-cross pattern surrounded by a sea of rainbow Spritz!

Have a wonderful weekend!!!

    love the layout, I used tape as well one day. Didn't your stick to the paper? I found it hard to get it off without tearing the paper up. Now off to the new Shimmerz site. Can't wait till the new vintage stuff comes out!

    Love this page. So clever to use tape as a mask! And those buttons in the shape of a heart are *yummy*! I may have to lift this!!
