Today I thought I would share a quick tutorial on how to use Lumiere 3-D one more way! :) I had used this technique on my “Mother” scrapbook layout earlier this month but didn’t really showcase it so I figured it would be a great way to end the month here… :) I hope you enjoy!
- Supplies Needed: Cardstock, Stamps, Ink, Lumiere 3-D in Pink & Pearl, Buttons, Pretty Girl Cozy Brads, Ribbon, Watercolor Brush, Small Container of Water, Palette for mixing on
- Dip tip of watercolor brush into water then into Lumiere 3-D to thin.
- Apply water thinned Rose Lumiere 3-D to each petal individually
- Repeat steps one & two with Pearl colored Lumiere 3-D, Only this time just paint the entire surface of the flower image.
Before the painted surface has time to dry, apply a light dusting of ultrafine glitter to the surface of the Pearl painted flowers if desired.
- Remove the excess glitter from the surface of the paper and then finish the card using your watercolored panel.
- Here’s the finished card once assembled. The gentle shimmer is so subtle yet so pretty, I only wish I could have caught it in the photo as it really appears in real life.
