Framed floral and mica spray stains

 

Hi everyone, I think I am addicted to mica spray stains!
I am swatching the colours and as I go I'm making backgrounds. Don't want to waste all the effort of having the bottles shaken and ready to spray!
And, since I have the "every colour" bug, there are a lot of swatches to do.

The colours in this background are cocktail party, flickering candle, fortune teller and a dash of snow flurries.
The floral die is by Paper Rose and the sentiment is a stamp and label die by Uniquely Creative
Here's a closer look at the shimmer.


I'm linking up to these challenges:


Dragonfly Dreams, these are a few of my favourite things.
Diecuts are one of my all time faves and at the moment, so are mica spray stains!

Allsorts, playing along with the anything goes option

Just Us Girls, this floral die has the frame as part of the image, so hope that is ok.
Simon Says Stamp Monday, sparkle and shine
Supplies:
Distress mica spray stains; Paper Rose blooming flowers background die; Uniquely Creative card making essentials #1 stamp and label die.

Thanks for visiting,

Perhaps, mica sprays stains are going to have to end up in my cart soon! The background you created is gorgeous and I'm guessing the sprays do most of the work. Love how you paired the sparkly background with a simple white die cut. Stunning! Thanks for joining us at Addicted to Stamps and More!
