To make this page I applied clear gesso to 49 and Market paper.

I put the layers under the photo together,starting with taping on watercolor paper under the image to make it stronger and to lie flat. Below that is a watercolor paper mat, and at the bottom is corrugated cardboard. I tore off most of the paper from the top of the cardboard, and painted it with gesso. I poured on Ultra Thick Embossing Enamel, and heated it until it was just melted.

I put the layers with the photo onto the page.

I applied Prima Platinum crackle paste with a stencil and a spatula.I arranged the flowers around the page, and added the beads and fussy cut images.I added Shimmerz Paints, more beads, and mica powder.

To add visual interest I added micro beads, seed beads,glass glitter,sequins,iridescent wrapping paper,sisal, pressed flowers,Shimmerz Paint,Swarovski and other brands of crystals, glass beads, pearls,lace,tulle,metal from Reneabouquets,Tim Holtz, and Vintaj,flowers from Reneabouquets and Prima,and bling and metal from my stash. Most of the things are glued on individually with Glossy Accents.I used double sided foam tape for the flowers and some other things,and to put the cardboard layers together.I used fussy cut images from The Botanist's Sticker Anthology, and Graphic 45 papers.
