Genuine Love and a Little Shimmer to Boot

Being in love is a special thing. To have someone in your life that fills your soul and can lean on you when they need, is a part of that love. Today I'm sharing with you a card I created using the beautiful Trinity Paper Arts Collection Sincerely. I've paired it up with my favorite fancy paper out on the market from Paper Temptress called Mica Metallic and this is what I've come up with.

 I love how the Mica Metallic papers take on rub-ons: so crisp. You can really see the shimmer on that paper. Isn't it scrumptious!!!??!!

 To get some great dimension on this card, I used a combination of Helmar Zapdots and Helmar Liquid Scrap Dots. I sprayed the flowers with True Blood Glimmer mist and they are the perfect match for the Sincerely papers.

The sketch is the New Mojo Monday Sketch, which I haven't played along with forever. Was nice to do that again. 

Thanks so much for stopping by today. I hope you are all having a fantastic week. Talk soon

Matchstick Holder has Life Altering Moment

Lately, I've been doing a fair amount of altering and when I found this matchstick holder, it didn't have a chance. I grabbed some beautiful papers from the Sincerely collection by Trinity Paper Arts, my Helmar Acid Free Glue and went to town. The Sincerely collection is so beautiful and the colors are amazing.

I really like how this one turned out. I think it is the papers, but it might be that covered the tole painting underneath lol. Here it is in all its new found glory. Hope you like it too.

Also, I just wanted to share with all of you some fantastic news. The Helmar Design Team has been announced, and I am beyond honored to be the Coordinator for the team. Here are the amazingly talented artists I get the pleasure of working with.
