Tattered Angels and Prima......

Hi friends!!!
I have more to share with you! Prima did a product exchange with one of my very favorite companies-Tattered Angels! Yay!! I love love love their stuff so i was really excited about this!

I made a couple projects using their amazing products-Glimmer Screens, Bingo and Calling cards, and of course-Glimmer Mist.
For this layout-I used the glimmer screen from the Blossom set on the background with Vintage Pink glimmer mist. I applied two good coats for a deeper color and contrast. I stitched around the edge and began building the center starting with a flocked transparency from Prima. I cut out part of the design and used it as a border on the side. I sprayed this with Walnut Gold GM. I cut off the edges of the cards and embossed with fine gold powder. I simply ran the Distress Emboss Ink pad along the edges, dredged in powder and heat set. Love the results!

I added Olive Vine GM to the De Vine Felt so that it sparkled too! And the small calling card is sprayed with a hefty dose of Crushed Shells GM. The Innoscence flowers were sprayed with Walnut Gold GM and so was my photo-just a light misting.

Here is a before and after photo of the background paper....

Some close-ups so you can see the embossed edges and other details......
I used Prima's velvet rose leaves, Caravan flowers, Fairytale roses and and Amaruse flower as well as bling swirls.

Love that calling card and the owl peeking out....

And this is a card I made using some of Prima's stamps. The stamps came from the Butterfly set. The sentiment is Hero Arts. I used Antique Brass over the whole face of the card. I LOVE how it looks on the chocolate cardstock--so rich! I hand cut some leaves from Prima packaging, E-Line pearls were added to the flower centers and a bit of storybook paper in the back.

Head on over to the Prima blog to see what some of the Design Team members did with Tattered Angels products.....

Have a great day!

Of course, it's totally and utterly brilliant. Do you have hard time with the warped paper after glimmer misting it? How do you deal with that? I mean do you put the paper under heavy books etc to flatten it?
