Beauty and Handmade Designer Paper

I love how these pages turned out! They are a product of many HOURS of work... good thing I enjoyed them. :o)

I began with this paper:



And stamped the sides with a vintage floral stamp from Crafty Secrets. The bottom border stamp is by Tim Holtz, as is the doily stamp in the top right corner. The title frame is from Verve.




Next, using a paintbrush, I colored in the flowers and outlined some of the designs with Liquid Pearls thinned with a little water.







"Beauty" is stamped with a CTMH alphabet set, D1418 Felicity.





The doily pictured above is stained with Tim Holtz Antique Linen and Vintage Photo, then sprayed with Silver Sugar Glimmer Mist.



The black doily topping the gold one is a Spellbinders die.

Next, I added LOTS of bling...









And then a little more...





















What do you think? Are you going to give this technique a try? Let me know how it goes...

Thanks for looking and if you have time, I LOVE your comments!

Have a great day, and happy crafting. :o) Jennifer
