Saying it with Love and Want2Scrap

Hello it is Linda here with a card for you using one of the beautiful Want2Scrap Bling Borders - how pretty they are and can add so much to a card.  Combine this with some beautiful rhinestones and it does not get much better than this!

I have created this card based on a digital image, I am not sure where it is from but will come back and add the link when I find it.  Imagine Craft 'featuring' Tsukineko Memento Markers have been used to colour the image, which has been layered into the Spellbinders Labels One Nestabilities using Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L 3D Foam Squares.  The Corners and Accents One flourishes has been added to the top and  bottom of the Labels One to create a frame.  This has then been adhered to the Green Labels One using double sided tape.

The layers have been adhered to a precut card base, with patterned paper cut slightly smaller.  Beautiful Bling Borders - Fancy Waves by Nina Brackett has been added along the top of the patterned paper.

Pink crochet lace is added along the lower edge and 72 Count -Silver/Clear Rhinestones - Self Adhesive have been added along the lace.  Bling on lace, whether it is rhinestones or pearls is always such a pretty additions - making the lace eye catching.

Saying I LOVE You with Want2Scrap

Hello it is Linda here with a card for you - with Valentines just around the corner what better time to share a card that is all about LOVE and of course I am using Want2Scrap pearls.

I always love the elegance that pearls bring and my inspiration for this card came from the beautiful necklace in front of it - this belonged to my beautiful Nana and is something I treasure.  As long as I can remember she wore pearls, particularly on special occasions...this could explain my passion for pearls - or it's beginning at least!

The Heartfelt Creations image has been stamped using VersaMark, I love the 'colour on colour' effect it has with the sentiment - I have added nothing more to this.  White Baby bling pearls have been added around the Grate Effects pattern, adding a simple elegance.  The card case has been created using the Romantic Rectangles Nestabilities.  My card is held together by Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L.

The White Roses have been added to the bottom left hand corner, along with Swirls Finesses popping out on each side.  The Swirls are so versatile - they can be used whole or trimmed to suit the project you are working on.  Simple elegance - so easy and definitely a WOW factor!!

Shabby Chic Altered Chest by Trudy Sjolander

Hi everyone!

True :D here :)

I'm a card artist at heart, but every now and then I like to mix it up a bit!

I saw this ugly chest at the dollar store and just had to buy it! 

I knew with some pretty paper, flowers, and bling, that it could be a beautiful accent for one of our guest rooms. 

First I gesso-ed the trim to start with a clean slate (sort of... I left some brown showing on purpose), then used lots of acrylic paints, mists, and my fingers to get an aged "painted and re-painted over the years" look.

Looks old to me...what do you think?

  

I added some paper, flowers, some White Finesse Swirls and White Pearls from Want2Scrap and viola!

The lighting in the guest room isn't prime for photos so the color is off, but can you see how well it matches the decor?

Thanks so much fro dropping by today!

I would love it if you left me a little ♥♥♥ before you go! :)

Hugs!
