DEMO #1 - Grunge Paper and Glitz Stickles

WELCOME to DEMO #1!

We've got so many cool new products in that we just had to show them to you. In this demo, we'll be showing you the new Tim Holtz Grunge Paper. Yes, PAPER! It's so very cool. It is sold in packs of 3, and they are 12x12. It's very thin and flexible. Here is a picture showing how it thin it is and how it bends.


And since it's so thin, it cuts beautifully in the Cuttlebug!


And then we ran it through one of the Cuttlebug embossing folders. Sorry the picture is a little blurry.


Here is another picture after the flower has been painted. The flower was painted first with alcohol ink, and then a Distress Ink pad was brushed over the top so that you can see the embossed swirls.


And here is the flower all put together. The bottom and top flowers were painted with the new Maya Road Garnet Metallic Mist. You can't see it in the pictures, but the flowers have a shine to them. The petals were then outlined with the new Suze Weinberg Glitz Stickles. I just love these stickles! They combine more than one color in a bottle. For instance, the one used on the flowers is a combination of red, gold, green, blue, and silver glitter. They are very pretty glitters!


Now, you may be thinking, why do I **need** grunge paper?! It is very durable. So if you want to embellish anything that will be handled a lot, it won't rip or tear like cardstock can. And it does seem thin enough to even go through your Cricut! It was very cool to play with!

All of these products (Grunge Paper, Maya Road Mists and Glitz Stickles) will go sale on March 31st at 7PM.

And, there is still more to come!
