My Happy Place (Prima Marketing)

Dear crafty friends,

I'm here again today to share with you a layout I created with a product I recently discovered: Art Alchemy waxes!

I must admit I was skeptical at first: I've had waxes in the past and I didn't like how they looked when put on, they were thick so they didn't went on smoothly. But as soon as I tried the Prima ones, I fell in love! They are the perfect product to add a finishing touch to about everything, they smell so good and they are so smooth: they go on like butter. 


On my layout, I used two color (Art Alchemy - Metallique Wax - Bronze Age and Art Alchemy - Antique Brillance - Amethyst Magic) to alter raw chipboard and to add a bit of contrast to my paper edges. 




I also used the Amethyst Magic to color my leaves (cut with the Forest Leaves Dies in regular white cardstock) and Art Pebbles previously covered with a coat of clear gesso, to make sure the wax will stay on the pebble. 






I love how everything you touch with those waxes catches light and pops!

  2. Beautiful page! I bought the waxes but still haven't tried them. You've inspired me to try them now. I love how you changed the color of the art stones too - didn't know you could do that. TFS
