SWEET SUMMER Scrapbook Page

Here is another sample for Regionals-using the Sale-a-bration
stamp set called SWEET SUMMER



Oh this little girl is so cute!
I stamped the leaves and used my
ITTY BITTY SHAPES PUNCH PACK to add the flowers
-Ahh yes... gotta have some dimension:)



I used...

SOFT SUEDE &
BLUSH BLOSSOM...ink

These really are both such beautiful colors.
Now that we have soft suede as a Stampin' Up Neutral I just don't know how we
did without it!
And I love the Blush Blossom for more of
an earthy pink.





I whipped out my sewing machine to make some
stitching.
And added some of the pretty BASIC PEARLS to each little flower.:)
I did spray some shimmer paint on to it too-which you can't see to well in this
pic though, for some pretty glimmer!


SHIMMER PAINT TECHNIQUE:
To do that with the shimmer paint...if you haven't...or didn't know...:)
Here's how...
You mix 3 parts rubbing alcohol to 1 part water in a little water bottle
preferably with a fine mist nozzle...then just drop in some drops of
your SHIMMER PAINT. I use the CHAMPAGNE MIST color ( my fave) and end up putting
maybe 1/4 teaspoon in a little mini water bottle.
( the more you add-the more glittery.)

It sprays onto the card stock and looks sooo pretty.
The point of the alcohol is to help it dry in the air as it sprays so it doesn't
soak your card stock but transports you glitter in a delicate and soft way as
apposed to sponging which is a heavier look.





PAPER:
SOFT SUEDE
CRUMB CAKE
BLUSHING BRIDE
&
WHISPER WHITE

Hey ya'll where does time go?
I sure as heck don't know??
Ahh-well it's off to bed e bye!


TOODLES!! THANKS FOR STOPPING BY!
