Beauty and the Beads - inspired by texture, shine and sparkle

Hi my dear friends, I'm happy to see you back!
As you know there's always something going on in my life - if I'm not travelling, teaching or working on new products for us all to play I'm thinking about new projects, challenges or ... simply trying to play in my studio.

Project I'm showing you today was my big experiment with both texture and shine - I wanted to create the effect that brings the impression of starry night, the essence of dark elegance - and I think I succeed!

I loved playing with combination of Art Ingredients Beads, Micro Beads and Glitter - some may say it was a risky idea, but in the end everything turned out beautifully! The big shame is you can't see at the photo how amazingly sparkly it is... Looks like taking good photo of holographic glitter is real mission impossible!

"Beauty and the Beads" is one of my new class projects and it is a great way to get familiar with products from Art Basics and Art Ingredients Line - while creating inspiring and fun to do project! A lot of included techniques may be used easily in art journaling, home decor or even scrapbooking projects and - believe me - you don't need much experience to take this class!


Check out some of the products used for this project:

I hope you will enjoy this project as much as I did - see you in the classroom soon!
