Art Journal Page with Guest Designer Tamiko McCurry

Hello EVERYONE!!  Tamiko here and it is my last week as a Guest Designer for Gina's Designs Laser cuts.  It has has been super swell to be here each Wednesday!  If you haven't noticed my style by now, I love color and I loooove sparkle.  You can never have too much of either when you are playing with fairies!  Check out my latest journal page..
I love anything and everything about fairies, then again I am biased because of the color and sparkle/glitter/shimmer factor.  I am not colorful person in clothing, nor am I adorned with sparkley accessories, but my heart is.  My friend Sandee Setliff, an awesome artist, and she reminded me to..  DREAM BIG, Little fairies grant BIG WISHES!  I believe there is a little bit of fairy sprinkling kindness/fairy dust everywhere daily in many of us.
Any who, back to my project.  I covered all my fabulous chippies from Gina's Store with gesso.  You don't have to, but I do, especially when I know I am going to use Design Memory Craft's gelatos.  It allows me to literally apply color and rub with my finger.
Here I took the Dressform Hang Ups  and attached it to one of the Ornamental Birdcages Shape Set and a set wings from the Wings Assortment pack.  I colored with gelatos and let sit and dry a bit. I  then added my Design Memory Craft Glass Bead Glitter Gel, becaue it dries clear on the project and allows the intended color from chippies to shine through.  Gina's chipboard/hard board pieces are such an amazing quality and I have tried various mediums on all of them and they had stood up to EVERYTHING I have thrown at it.  Not once did the buckle/pucker/warp during the process, which is very important to me.
    Then I added fairies from the small and medium packs.  Believe me.. YOU will want several of these assortments and there is a LARGE TOO!!  Making a new wish list!!!
I love Gina's Store, I am very excited over the projects I have been able to produce over the last few weeks.  Her chippies have allowed me to create things I would not normally even attempt on my own.  With an awesome selection of chipboard pieces and her MORE than affordable prices I will always come back and refer her to friends and fellow crafters alike.  If you get a chance to check out her site! I am more than sure you will find something that tickles your fancy, personally or for a spectacular gift.  Again, it has been uberly awesome to be a guest designer for her and her company.  Please subscribe to her design team's YouTube Channel , they are a talented bunch and don't forget to LIKE her Facbook page by clicking here and join her Facebook group for even more inspiration by clicking here.

Thanks for all of your warm support!
