Today is a special day in our house, even with all that has been going on in the world lately. Today, my oldest son turns 25! I don't know how that happened.... I'm only in my 30s, right? Sadly no.... the truth is he is almost half my age... I will turn 50 this summer. So crazy!!!
I am on the Scrap n Stamp Blog today, playing with some brand new items in the shop! I was so excited whey Raya brought these wonderful Paper Glazes in to the shop! I had seen a video when they were first released and I knew I had to have at least some of them. Perhaps I got 7 of them.... oops.
The new Picket Fence Studio Paper Glazes come in some wonderfully amazing colours. They are a thinner consistency that say the Nuvo Glimmer Paste but can be used in a lot of great ways. I have heard of people using them on Gelli Plates and in lots of mixed media work. You can paint with them or use them with a stencil. The clean up is simple... just some water and a bit of a scrub. They have a very slight shimmer to them... nothing over the top.
For my card today, I used a Gina K Stencil and some beautiful glitter cardstock and I stencilled on top of the glitter cardstock. Such a wonderful tone on tone look with some sparkle thrown in! Usually when I use my stencils and paste I use a plastic palette knife... but I got one of the Ranger Craft Squeegees and let me tell you how much I LOVE it!! Because it's rubbery it just seems to work with the Paper Glaze a little better. I will be trying with my Nuvo Shimmer Paste as well.
