Creating with Embellies: Puzzle banner


Hello!  Today I am here with a fun banner project.  I'm especially excited to be trying out the Designer Embellies - Puzzle (2-Pack) chipboard puzzle pieces from Want2Scrap® and Donna Salazar for my very first time.  I also am loving the Wonderful Wings Bling!


Each piece of my banner has a different letter to spell out "create"...you can bet this baby is going on the wall in my craft room!




Bits of trim and silver glitter for the letter "e".


A scrap of Sleek Strips Silver Rhinestones- Self Adhesive does the trick on letter "a".


Sugar shimmer from Clearsnap makes the tails on this rosette sparkle!


And one more strip of Sleek Strips Silver Rhinestones- Self Adhesive to finish the puzzle edge of letter "e"!


A pretty banner as easy as one, two, three!

While I was making this, lots of fun ways to use the puzzle pieces were popping to mind...I can't wait to use them again!  Thanks so much for stopping by today.

Elegant and Cheery Cards

Hello, bling-lovin' friends! I have two cards for you today where I did a little bit of "surgery" to make the bling fit my needs. :) My first card uses the Want2Scrap Beautiful Bling Endless Waves as the flight trails for the stamped bees. These swirls are just perfect for that.
W2S-May
I stamped and colored with Copics The Craft's Meow Celebrating You stamps. I mounted them with foam dots and added a double bow for more dimension to my card.
W2S-May-details
My second one is a bright cheery flower card that uses the Want2Scrap Classy Corners Bling. I removed the side swirls to fit on the corner of my card. What do you think? I will use the swirls on a later project. I just love how the bling add elegance to the card.
W2S-May3-details
I die cut the bottom of the red paper with Spellbinders Classic Edges 2 and Classic Decorative Inserts 4. I stitched some pleated twill ribbon and layered the stamped flowers and leaves on top. I added rhinestones on the decorative border and butterfly using Want2Scrap 72-count Silver Rhinestones.The sentiments (from The Craft's Meow's Timeless Tags set) was heat embossed with white on the bottom right side of the aqua panel.
W2S-May3
Have a great day!

Princess Layout with Alyssa

Hello, everyone!  I'm back today with a fun layout today that I created to make the most of Charlie's Birdcage, one of my new favorite Want2Scrap™ products!
To give the birdcage is gilded look, I started with Gesso, then painted on a layer of Shimmerz Pearls in This Spudz for You.  A spritz with a similar color of Glimmer Mist finished it off.  I LOVE how it looks a little aged, yet still fits in well with a fresh color palette.

Thanks for coming by and taking a peek!  I hope you all have a wonderfully craft day!

Wonderful Wings


 Hello, friends!  It's a rare occasion when I can get both of my boys to pose for a photo.  I took this photo recently on a family trip.  It amazes me how fast they have grown.  I wanted to create a beautiful layout featuring my guys that I could frame and hang in my home office to see everyday. Who says a masculine layout can't include bling and butterflies?

 I chose patterned papers in brown, blue, and green for an outdoor, masculine feel.  The Want2Scrap Chipboard Alphabet-Stylish are one of my favorite products.  I love the font.  I shaded them with teal and brown ink for a wonderful accent.  I added K&H for my boys initials.

The newsprint patterned paper is Classified by The Dove's Nest.  I inked, tore, and curled the paper for dimension.|

I wanted dimension and texture to ground my photo.  The Want2Scrap 6x6" Chipboard Backing was perfect for my 4x6" photo. 

My favorite accents on this layout are the Want2Scrap Wonderful Wings Bling butterflies.  I placed them on patterned paper, cut them out, and adhered them to the layout with dimensional adhesive.  The trailing bling following the butterflies was created with Want2Scrap BYOB--Build Your Own Bling.

Butterfly Thanks

Hi, Nina here on the blog today. I have a fancy butterfly card to show you. I use the Want2Scrap Swirls Silver Rhinestones for the flight path.
W2S-May-2
These swirls really add a special touch to any card. I finished the card with sticker and paper scraps, half a doily and pompom ribbon.
W2S-May2details
Here's a close up of the butterfly from The Craft's Meow's Beautiful Spring. It's colored with Copic markers. I adhered the body using Glue Arts Adhesive Squares™ Brand Adhesives-ExtremeTac Minis.
