(7 layers) Most recent Layouts.. 7 in one weekend

I am so exited about the fact that I was able to do 7 layouts this weekend.  I have never done so many before in such a short amount of time, considering that I had to cook, clean and do our grocery shopping on weekend He he he!!!  I am so happy, I even played with cold porcelain.  I will show bellow what I did.  It's some sort of porcelain with a twist.  Because I incorporated stamps.    

Here...these are some of my "7 layers" I did..not finished yet because I am adding some porcelain embellishments to them...so this is just a quick glimpse. 

On a couple ribbons I sew, I add a strip of purple pearls.  One of the corner with feathers and a cameo.

The complete Lo: Mi madrina de bodas!!! Iris.  Some of these flowers have been embossed using UTEE.

 The bottom corner

 Sister and hubby.  I saw the opportunity to play and use these flowers I made looong ago,the flowers centers are all different, some are paper, others pearls, others a stick pin and crepe paper. 

  A nice cameo in top right corner. 

My hubby and son getting in the mood for Iron Maiden 2011

 I sew a piece of fabric, and lace and a strip of pearls.

Instead of covering the doily heart shape with lace, I cover only half of it and paint it in aqua.

Playing with Porcelain

These are the porcelain figures I did.  I made the dough and then cut small pieces depending on what I needed it.  Then I stamped over the piece, cut the excess and ta da!! for two days in the porch and then I will paint them in different colors.  Perfect for my Greek alike layouts.

 More of those flowers I recently did.

Seashells for my Christmas decorations!!

I've been thinking what can I do...how can I decorate my bathroom for the season, without loosing the Floridian, beachee style I love so much and that also is the accent of my apartment.  Well I came with this idea.  I painted this seashells using craft paint and glitter glue.  I can now fill my mini baskets with the painted shells in the season colors and still keep the tropical ambiance.

After I clean them I add a coat of clear glue and let it dry, to prepare the surface for color.  Then I applied these colors and others I don't show here.

I applied two different techniques here for two different finished.  With the paint still fresh on the shell, I applied the glitter glue for a more creamy finished.  For the other one I waited until It dried and then applied the glimmer mist for a more "sparkling" effect.   

And this is what I got . In the second image the creamiest ones are in the left low corner.  Do you see the difference?
