Instructions

To make this page, I put Prima Platinum crackle paste on watercolor paper with a stencil and a small spatula.
I taped a layer of watercolor paper underneath the photo to help it to lie flat. I added a layer of corrugated cardboard and a watercolor paper mat. I added another layer of cardboard and a bottom layer of corrugated. On the mat layer of corrugated card, I poured Lindy’s embossing powder.the links are below, into wet gesso, then heated it with a heating gun.
I arranged other items around the page. I brushed on the gorgeous Lindy’s Gang paints listed below, and glued on more beads, using Glossy Accents. Anytime I glued items on I sprinkled on glass glitter on top of the glue.
To soften the edges of the Lindy’s colors I brushed on white gesso. I mixed Denim Dragonfly with a lot of water and brushed it on the page.
Finally, I rubbed on gold mica powder on a lot of surfaces, to kind of tie together all the elements. I added silver mica powder to a few areas.

To add visual interest I added micro beads, seed beads, glass glitter, pearls, gold and copper leaf, a shell, buttons, crystals, glass beads, tulle, and bling from my stash.

I used glossy accents and double-sided foam tape to adhere items to the page. I sprayed small pieces of tulle with Long John Silver Moonshadow Mist. I dried them and put them around the photo.
