I thought i might give a few more project ideas , as well as an FAQ video for those of you who already use Glimmer mists. I think these projects help show how versatile this product is and how you don’t only have to use it for scrapbooking. While making a Halloween wreath this year, Heather was having a difficult time finding fake black roses, so instead of doing with out, or spending way too much money on them, she bought some fake white roses and sprayed them with Raven Glimmer Mist and created her own black roses. This is just one idea of how glimmer mists can work for any project you might have!!
Raise your hand if you had some FUN this past summer!?!? This layout is the epitome of fun! From the paper, to design, to the picture, this page captures the playful spirit of a young child, or could even capture those qualities of an older child, or adult. This layout uses the Lime Rickey Basicgrey line & embellishments. This layout could be used for any moment, from a playground play-date, to a important competition or recital that someone loves.It could even be used as the starting or ending page of a summer vacation album. Just use it for a page you want to be fun and exciting!!

I have fallen in love with this page by Marion! She does such a good job with making her work extremely unique! In this tutorial she even splatter paints!! I love her creativeness and couldn’t resist using one of her videos for today’s media entry. I love how you could make the exact same page for a girl. And the page doesn’t even have to be for a baby. This layout would work for any age!!
Today I come to you guys with a new Basic Grey page. I absolutely fell in love with this page as soon as I saw it! What a perfect layout showing the accomplishments of a young child, working hard towards one more step in the growing up process. Everyone goes through these moments. So whether it’s a first day of school, a loose tooth etc. this layout is perfect for those major accomplishments. In the layout and directions below, you put different letters from the Lime Rickey monogram stickers, and put them onto the 7â€x12†piece of Deep Blue. This works great for the school related pages, but what takes away from the point of other non-school related accomplishments. My suggestion? Instead use a favorite stamp and lime green paint, or some other element stickers. That way you still have the cute, and innovative background paper, while not distracting the viewer from the real theme of your page! Enjoy Scrappers!
