I did this card to showcase some of the fabulous new Blingz put out by Shimmerz! These paints are fabulous and can be added to any stamped creation to add some dazzling sparkles!
I started by stamping my image with Versamark and embossing it with gold detail embossing powder. After that - I let my paintbrush go to town! I painted the entire flower with Pink Poinsettia. While the flower was still wet, I added a touch of Pink Shimmerz on parts of the flower to add some shading. I love the way these paints blend, especially when they are still wet. It created the softest look with tons of bling!
You might notice the shimmer on the pink mat. That was one by stamping my Damask backgrounder from Flourishes on my pink paper and then brushing some Pure Mica Powder over top in Luster Pearl. You just use as soft brush to apply and then wipe off the excess with a Swiffer Duster!
