Hi there! I hope you are having a great week! Today it's my turn to share a project along with a step-by-step tutorial on the ColourArte blog. Please be sure to stop by the ColourArte blog (click HERE) to see my entire project ~ while you're there, please say hi :)

Here's a peek of my project featuring an assortment of beautiful shimmery ColourArte Primary Elements Artists Pigments:
I also have a card to share that was featuring a variety of beautiful ColourArte Silks Acrylic Glazes:
The background was made using a stencil along with modeling past then painted with the Silks Acrylic Glazes listed below: 

 For the sentiment, I used a Tim Holtz sticker and embellished with a trio of flowers as well as die cut foliage:
Here's a look at the three different shades of Silks Acrylic Glazes that I used:
 For sketch inspiration, I joined along with the current Scrap Africa challenge:
 For color inspiration, I joined along with the Sparkle & Shine Challenge featuring Pretty Posh Aquamarine and Crystal sequins:
