Christine Adolph's Foils / Luminarte video

Christine_adolph_foils

Hello Mixed Media Artists,

I love things that shine and shimmer! Christine Adolph has this great new range of sticky rub ons with foils to create stunning pieces. This video shows how easy they are to use!

I see that Christine mists up her H2Os before painting - what a great idea!

Happy creating!
Michelle
