Thrift Shop with some Shimmerz!

Sharing another layout using the amazing May Thrift Shop kit from SD4U.

This layout features a photo of my 2yr old DD eating cake on her birthday last April 19, 2010 using her fingers. I initially edited the photo using Adobe Photoshop and added a filmstrip banner to it to match my current theme and color.


I am just loving the NEW Simmerz Pearlz!!!! It is vibrant and rich with shimmer. It gave each and every project a glow of magnificence. No need to reapply several times! One stroke of a brush will give you the color,the texture and the shimmer that you will definitely want to achieve!

For this layout, I have used both New Pearlz Sunny Side Up and This Spuds 4 U. The combination of this color is perfect for summer, vintage and fun projects.


I have used my SD4U May kit featuring October Afternoon's Thrift Shop line. I specifically chose the papers that has most yellows,browns and blacks in it since I am using a sepia photo.

Before adhering all my elements, I painted the middlepart of my background cardstock with Pearlz This Spuds 4U using a foam brush. Brushed the paint back and fort horizontally. Using a foam brush creates this visible pattern of broken lines so I painted some Pearlz Sunny Side Up on this spaces.

Just look how vibrant this NEW Pearlz colors are. This is a paper flower but with Pearlz Sunny Side Up added to it, it looks more sparkly and real. The paint added the personal touch I am aiming for. So try the NEW Pearlz NOW!!!!
