I'm sharing a card for Your Memories Here today. I'm a big fan of Glitz Design Paper Layers and I chose one for the background of this card. I loved the image, but I wanted to add more color and some sparkle. I selected a few Gelatos from my set and a bottle of Tattered Angels Iridescent Gold Glimmer Mist and colored my paper with a few quick and easy steps.
I picked Gelatos in Metallic Mint, Lemon and Red Cherry.
Next, I randomly scribbled my Gelatos directly on to my craft mat.
I then lightly spritzed my craft mat with mist and blended the colors a bit with my finger. I wet my Gelatos with Tattered Angels Glimmer Mist to add extra shine to my card. If you prefer a less shimmery project, water can be used instead.
I carefully pressed my Paper Layer image side down onto my pool of color. Then, I gently lifted the paper off my craft mat. Once my Paper Layer was dry I added it and some simple embellishments to my card.
I love the subtle color and shimmer of this card! The Prima Typo Bulbs are so fun! Thanks for stopping by today!
