This is a picture of my cousin and her husband. I really wanted the page to have shimmer to it to match her head piece!!

My base is a piece of Basic Black 12 x12. I cut a piece of Whisper White card stock to fit the Basic Black. I took the stamp from Always Stamp Set; inked in Basic Black and stamped around the sides and across the top. I took the stamp from Always Stamp Set; inked in Basic Gray and stamped the saying in the bottom right hand corner. I took the 2-Way Glue Pen added glue to the images and then poured Dazzling Diamonds over the glue. I sponged the edges of the Whisper White card stock with Shimmer Paint Platinum.

Tip~ Creating a wedding or prom page consider adding glitter, shimmer paint or smooch spritz to the card stock to make it more shimmery.

I cut a piece of Presto Patterns DSP, using the Brayer I brayed Basic Black ink over it. I love this DSP!!! It is a lot of fun to work with and adds so much to your project!!!

Tip~ When braying with Basic Black ink it may take many covers to achieve how dark you want it. With the Presto Patterns DSP it will take many coats of ink to get the image to pop.

I cut some Brushed Silver card stock. I ran it through the Big Shot with the Vintage Wallpaper Embossing Folder. I then rounded the bottom corner on each side with the 3/16 Small Corner Punch.  I then wrapped a piece of 5/8 Organza Whisper White Ribbon above the top of the Brushed Silver card stock. I cut a piece of Basic Black card stock to go behind the photo. I then glued it to the center of the page. My photo was a Black and White one already.

Tip~ For an elegant looking page consider printing one or more photos out in Black and White.

I took some Jewels Basic Rhinestones and created a pattern with them in the upper right hand corner. I took the stamp "everything" from Always Stamp Set; inked in Basic Black and stamped onto a piece of Whisper White card stock. I rounded just the two corners with the 3/16 Corner Small Punch. I then sponged some Shimmer Paint Platinum to the tag and placed it on the left side of the picture. I folded a piece of 5/8 Organza Whisper White Ribbon and attached it behind the page. I then added some Jewels Basic Rhinestones to ribbon and tag. I took the "bird" stamp from Always Stamp Set; inked in Basic Black and stamped onto a piece of Whisper White card stock. I cut the bird image out and then I added some Dazzling Diamonds to the image with the 2-way glue pen. I also added some Jewels Basic Rhinestones to the bird and popped it up on a Stampin' Dimensional. I then added a bow on the right side made from 5/8 Organza Whisper White Ribbon. Then last I did my journaling onto a piece of White Vellum Paper.

Tip~ To create your own swirls with the Jewels Basic Rhinestones, draw your design onto a piece of Vellum Paper then place on your project and lightly pierce tiny holes through the Vellum Paper with the Paper-Piercing Tool. Then cover the holes with Jewels Basic Rhinestones.
