Shimmer Paint Class

Hello there

I hope you are managing to keep cool wherever you are.

I held a class on Shimmer Paint recently.

Everyone got a pot of gold and tried out a few techniques.

I used some old packaging of cardboard in a cellophane bag,

to hand out as paint "pallets" .

I love sharing ways of saving money and recycling.

It can also save your best china from being ruined for example!

I also handed out a document listing some of the ways to use shimmer paint.
(Do ask if you'd like a copy. It's a simple word doc I can email)

So the first thing we tried was "faux mother of pearl".

This would normally be done using frost or white paint,

but we used the same method of scrunching some food wrap,

and pouncing on some card, adding some ink blending once it dried.

Next we blended some gold paint with some inks, and swiped them across the card.

Yellow, orange and red created a sunrise/sunset effect.

Sprinkle some water droplets, and you get the faux bleach effect.

Add some ink splats in the same colours, mat onto black card and you have a nice background.

A simple die cut from black card makes a fairly quick project.

A die cut or spare card can be used to pick up any left over paint.

The paint can be mixed and spritzed in a spray bottle. 

I tried it out with blue and green ink initially, but went for vibrancy in the class.

Having collected some pine cones, I also tried the paint on one.

Great for xmas or other celebrations, it can be used on fabric, wood, ceramic etc.

I was inspired by a post from Amanda Bates of The Craft Spa.

See her post HERE.

I did type a simple word document for class listing the main ways to use the paint,

so do send me your email address if you'd like a copy.

Happy Crafting

Lesley

Shimmer Paints team card

Happy Sunday to you!

Been a muggy day, and we fear there's more to come,

but we managed to do some work in the garden, followed by accounts yuk!

So, to cheer me up I'm sharing a shimmer paint project.

I was planning for a class, using Stampin' Up! Shimmer paints,

but also needed to welcome a new member to my team. 

First I masked a square, then blended some ink and gold shimmer paint

onto some whisper white card.

I sprinkled some water droplets to faux bleach the background.

Dabbed off excess with paper towel.

I then wanted to add some splats.....however, to get a bit of control over them,

I used stamps instead.......I found my splats using a brush went everywhere I didn't want!

I also added a squiggly border around the inked square with a fine liner pen.

Something I rarely have courage to do, but a squiggly one is easier than a straight one :)

I hope you can see some of the shimmer. My photos don't show it that well.

I hope you've had a good weekend,

have a good week too

Lesley
