Time for Shimmer Paints by Nikki Acton

Hi everyone, Nikki here with another project featuring the new That’s Crafty! products launched recently. This design is a 6x6 inch white/greyboard panel.

For this design I prepared the surface of the panel and the greyboard embellishments by stippling thick gesso over the surface – to create texture. I also scratched into the wings with my craft knife. Then, as I have done before, I began sponging the That’s Crafty! Shimmer paints onto the surfaces.

Base – Turquoise and Copper

Edge – Black (chalk paint), Red and Orange Shimmer paints

Clock – Aquamarine and Copper

Wings – I blended Dark Blue with Red at the edges and also added a little black and orange.

These embellishments really are fabulous for altering and painting!

Happy crafting!
