Frolick & Play--Layout

Hey it's Karen here with you! This will be my last post for my DT term, time flies, I cannot believe its come to an end. I have enjoyed sharing my projects with you, along with working with these beautiful paints!


I used my Winter Frost paint to highlight the carstock flowers. I find it so easy to add just a hiny of shimmer to my projects by adding to certain elements such as cardstock or chipboard pieces. Looks so pretty.


Well thats it for me!
I hope you found some inspiration from the projects I have shared with you thru out my term.
Wishing everyone and safe and happy new year!

Christmas Card

Good morning ladies!
I bring you a quick christmas card created with the BoBunny Noel papers.


For the chipboard pieces, I accented them with my gold CI paint to bring a little pop to it.


Hope you all have a great day!

Hey! It's Karen!
I have a layout to share with you, I recently hopped onboard with the IOD DT and so I got my box packed with goods, so this layout exclusively features the Lullaby Girl collection. Of course I used my CI paints for this=)


I cut out some flowers from one of the patterned papers and wanted to give them a pretty pop, so I painted them with shimmery goodness. For the leaves I used Green Olive, the petals Rose Quartz(which I LOOOOOVE) and for the center Sunshine...chck out the shimmer!

The leaves on this sticker REALLY show the shimmer.


Well thats its for now...Til next time!!

Halloween Tag

So I know Halloween is over and all, but I wanted to show you a quick tag I made, that hangs on a door. And of course....I used some of my paints on it=)

I accented the pumpkin with Mango. The "fright night" is a stamp, which instead of using ink o stamp, I simply painted my stamp with Onyx paint and stamped it.=) I also painted my little skeleton guy with Onyx, you can catch some of the shimmer in the top right corner.

Well I hope you all had a wonderful safe Halloween.
Catch ya next time. =)

A layout AND card!!!

Hey ladies! It's Karen with you today, bringing you a layout and card using the gorgeous Creative Inspirations Shimmer Paints. I am soooo in love with these! The amount of shimmer in each pot is unreal.


Here is a closeup of the piece I altered with the paints, it's a Dusty Attic chipboard chandelier. Look at the shimmer!! I coated the entire piece with Beige, then using my finger I dabbed some Chocolate and Antique Copper in some spots, to add a rusty feel to it.


Here are the colors I used on the above chippie. From left to right: Chocolate, Beige, and Antique Copper.


Now for my card, ok quite honestly I'm not huge on card making BUT I love how this one turned out. Used the scraps from the layout above.


For the sentiment, I basically painted the entire piece of cardstock with Carmel(one of my faves!)

Then also used the same color to accent some of the swirls in the paper.

I hope you enjoyed these projects and find inspiration within them.
Til next time....=)
