It's Your Day

Hi friends! I hope you had a fantastic Christmas surrounded by love and laughter. Today I'm popping in to share a little shimmery magic with you.

In the midst of my mad-dash holiday cardmaking blitz earlier this month, I needed to take a break from all things Christmas. So I pulled out my Shimmerz paints and set to work making a birthday card for a teenager. That seemed about as far away from Christmas as I could get! LOL!  This little radio image from the Vintage Love seemed like the perfect start. I embossed it on watercolor paper, then painted with Evergreen Shimmerz and Lettuce Get Together Creameez, then fussy cut.  I set this aside, and worked on the background, smooshing with the same color inks, and then splattering with Coal Shimmerz.

I added a few music notes stamped randomly across the top, then embossed a sentiment from the Keep in Touch, Too set onto black cardstock.  To make things look not so much like they're floating in space, I broke off a piece of brick chipboard and painted it with coal to layer down on the card. I finished with a few distressed edges.

Thanks so much for stopping by today! If you're in the mood to add to your Shimmerz collection, place my name in the order comments when you place your order for a free mini surprise!
