Art Anthology: Spring Fling

I am excited to be featured in Art Anthology's Blog - Spring Fling Scrapbook Page by Margie Higuchi post!! When I was at the 2013 Winter CHA (Craft & Hobby Assoc.) trade show, I met up with friends (Stayce DeWid & Jen Starr) at Art Anthology Inc.! Do you know about this new company?

With samples in tow, I went back home and started to play. Goodness!! These products are amazing~!! I created a scrapbook page...

There are SO MANY techniques in this page = FUN~!!

PAINTING: I die cut tissue paper with Spellbinders® Blossom Five dies and then painted them with Cotton Candy Velvet Paint, Vegas Gold and Imperial Sorbet Paints. After they dried, I layered them to create colorful blossoms.

PAINTING OUT OF THE BOX: As dimensional paints, I wanted to find out how they would do if I painted them on my non-stick craft sheet. So I used Cotton Candy Velvet Paint and Honolulu Blue Sorbet Paint. I did about three coats with drying time between.

What great results! They dried to what is similar to vinyl sheets but with wonderful color and sparkle! I cut/embossed with Spellbinders Shapeabilities® Cherry Blossoms and Media Mixàge™ Shields One dies.

A close up on how I used the finished products in my scrapbook page with the tissue paper blossoms and die cuts…

CREATING: I painted leaves with.............OH, WAIT~!!! I have to save the other several techniques for the Spring Fling Scrapbook Page by Margie Higuchi post on Art Anthology Blog!! LOL!! So GO VISIT - see what else I did with their products and tell them/me what you think!
