On to the artwork! Wow! Laura’s colorful creation started with the Midnight Masquerade papers (from the Beauty and the Beast Kit) and the Taj Mahal Triptych!
The scene depicts costumed masked ladies reveling the night away; who wouldn’t want to go to this party!
I think my favorites are the metal masks which are decorated with paint, (new!) rhinestones, glass glitter and feathers and the colorful steamers made from a high quality double sided dual color heavy weight crepe paper that can be stretched (not the thin kind you buy in rolls for parties).
(See close-ups of 2 of the decorated metal masks above right and below.)
Laura also created a new Bejeweled Moons Collage Sheet that she used in this project!
More info in Laura’s blog and/or see her supply list.

I love the colors and art of the midnight masquerade paper to use with the triptych as a backdrop to my dancing miniatures. Great offer.
I’d use the Taj Mahal triptych and the bejeweled moons to make a moon triptych with some of those beautiful beads for stars and other items in the skies.
Gonna use it ALL!
There is so much to love here. I would definitely recreate the masterpieces in the blog, but I also see great possibilities with the happy figure in the middle…she would be great for “Kicking Cancer” projects, “embracing life” etc. the masks and the mask charms shown on another page are perfect for my Tonner Queen of Hearts Doll, who I am always looking to add accessories to for display.
I would love to use the silver mask charms in my jewelry making.
Wooo Weee. Love the masks, Everything is so pretty. Want to make an album from the Midnight Masquerade paper set highlighting the masks.
I see would use the masks first. I would try them on a prima and do a masquerade themed tag.
The MASKS! I love them and can’t wait to use them in a project!
Oh those tiny masks! Would love to decorate a bunch of them and put them on sticks. Would make great cupcake decorations!
The masks are beautiful. I’d decorate them first and then go nuts with the tryptic
Love Laura’s designs so much…would have to use all of it and follow along with her project!
I Love all these Masquerade goodies! What Incognito FUN! Alpha you have all the perfect accessories to go with G45 papers! Can’t wait to get my hands on some! 🙂
Love the mask’s and rhinestone chain! Maybe a Mardi Gras theme!
Gorgeous project. I would embellish the masks.
This is my favorite one yet. I would use the Taj Mahal frames first to create an exotic getaway scene.
I can’t decide between the tryptic or the masks! I think I love them equally, so I would have to use them together somehow. Maybe a Halloween party theme with some glam from the masks!
