with Impasto and Tattered Angels glimmer mists!!! Thought I would share this quick tutorial for this Christmas frame that I created today.
1. Cover chipboard frame with Impasto.
2. Hit the Impasto with a heat gun until it bubbles.
3. Let it cool just slightly then smoosh the Impasto down with your fingers to give it texture.
4. Spray with Tattered Angels glimmer mists, then hit it with the heat gun and when slightly cooled smoosh down again.
5. I repeated step 4 two more times, then painted some Glimmer glam on also.

And just because... last night I spend the night with a great group of girlfriend's cropping. My friend Jane was playing around with some Glimmer Mist and a stencil for a project she was working on. I grabbed her leftover piece of chipboard and made this layout from it.
