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!!
This layout makes you just say “awww!” Like many of the layouts i’ve shown, this one uses a lot of popular techniques. I love the use of different paper products. From the edged paper, to the torn notebook page, this page looks very complete. It has the perfect balance. I think that usually we tend to use more ebellishments, but i like how this page uses little ebellishments, and more paper accents. Try using the same techniques in more of our layouts. Or try and turn this page into a two-paged layouts. Have a Fabulous week!!

Its a cute and simple way to make any page!
Heres HOW!:

This layout is super cute, and uses almost Making Memories supplies. It was fast and easy but turned out super cute! We used the GARDEN PARTY line from MAKING MEMORIES.
And Heres how to make it!

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!!
