SHIMMERZ PAINTS new products!!!

Hi There.....


By now you may have heard about these new products from Shimmerz.
I for one can not wait to get my hands on these.
The colours are so intense and totally opaque. Just take a look how a couple of sprays totally covers and recolours that white flower in this promotional video



Shimmerz Paints have WAY over 100 colours to choose from, and with this release, there are 6 product lines to try, each having their own characteristics.

Totally thrilling
Like I said....
CANT WAIT!

The new release is up at THE COLOR ROOM today.  Its a good one too!!!  We added a TWIST! 
We are holding a "Style Swap" event.  The Designers each created a page in the style of a fellow Designer, and the results were fantastic.  It is so inspiring.....its almost like a two for one on each page created.  The girls successfully took elements of their swapped style and added it to their own style.  Each page is absolutely brilliant!

 Heres what I did for this Palette.  I used Ronda Palazzari's style as best I could.  It was a great experience, and I cant wiat to do it again!





As you can see. I had fun!
If you want to see 'who did who' Stop by The Color Room and check out what the designers got up to.
This week we are encouraging the members to scrap a Designer or someone from the site you admire!!! Just be sure to state who you used to create your Project!!!

Hope you can give it a go. It really was lots of fun!

Shimmerz Paints and Punky Sprouts {1}

Here is a video showing you some ways I used Shimmerz Paints and the 'Rebel Sprouts' album from Punky Sprouts.
There are many more tutorial videos on the Shimmerz Education Blog for you to peruse, be sure to check them out!!!!

I saw Marion Smith create a project using vintage metal items and when I came across this Door Plate from the 150 year old (ex)hotel I grew up in, I thought it was perfect to use, and I really wanted to see how this rusty old piece with loads of history responded to a bit of Shimmer and Paint!!!! Can you imagine how many people opened this door in the past 150 years.....







This video is continued below in part 2......
