Red White and Boom! Scrapbook Layout with Glitz Glitter Gel

I started this layout with my fireworks stencil and glitter glitz gel in red, white, and blue. I did them one at a time and placed them towards the middle of my black cardstock as I wanted it to be a focal point. I did wait for each color to dry a bit so I didn't smudge them but to my surprise, it dried pretty fast! Next, I added some white splatters with some watered-down acrylic paint and a round paintbrush. Then, in comes my photos! I've matted them with smooth white cardstock, then again with a background paper from Fancy Pants Simply Summer collection. I've also added a border around my page with one of the 12x12 papers. I've used my 4th of July stamp set by Pretty Pink Posh from our last collaboration to do my little circle fireworks embellishments! I just stamped them with some black archival ink, and then used a blending brush to add some barn red distress ink and prized ribbon distress ink to the center. I finished those off by cutting out with my Echo Park nesting circle dies on my manual die cutting machine and adding a small clear gem from Pretty Pink Posh in the center! Aren't they just darling? Lastly, I added embellishments from Fancy Pants Simply Summer collection to finish this one off! There is a process video on YouTube if you'd like to see exactly how this came together: [embed]https://youtu.be/MZ-uhzJTji0[/embed] Thank you for being here today and I hope I was able to inspire you to create!
