NOEL

Earlier in the month, I shared a project using Nestabling Pennants.

I didn't use all the sizes, so I had leftovers,

so I thought I'd trim those up and use them to

decorate this adorable cube.

I started by covering the cube with papers from Authentique.

I left the edges exposed, I thought the white was sparkly 

and reminded me of snow.

Have you seen any of that elusive stuff yet this season?

I saw a flake or too here in Minnesota. Not much though!

I colored and "dusted" Stylish Chipboard Alpha with Sugar Shimmer glitter

from ClearSnap [Donna Salazar]. This sparkly stuff is so cute, it comes in a salt shaker!

This little tree is from the train section at a hobby store.

I added some gesso "paint" and then

I decorated it with some buttons from Buttons Galore.

More buttons, held in place with some pins from Maya Road.

These sparkly poinsettias from Prima really finished off the piece.

The letters are super sparkly, but I still added some Baby Bling

to make sure they could really Bling in the SEASON right.

Thanks for making us a part of your day. I hope your season is "Blinging" along nicely!

Nestabling Christmas tree

Hi all- AJ here with a fun holiday card to share using Want2Scraps Nestabling.

My card today uses the Nested Pennants in Lemon to create the tree top, and the
Lattice Rectangles Nestabling in Mocha Pearl to create the tree trunk.   Yellow wasn't quite the color I wanted for my tree, so I went another route to make it work!   I finished off the adorable reindeer with a small rhinestone from the 72 Count Red Rhinestones.

to color your Nestabling pearls, leave them right on the plastic backing, and use your favorite Alcohol based marker.  (You can also color on your clear rhinestones)

Want2Scrap Products used:
Nested Pennants in Lemon
Lattice Rectangles Nestabling in Mocha Pearl
72 Count Red Rhinestones

Stamps- Hero Arts
Adhesive- Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

enjoy!

Bring in the Bling

I hope your Thanksgiving was great!

Do you participate in the madness that is Black Friday? Not me, I like to recuperate from Thanksgiving. I cannot however, resist a great opportunity to add a little bling to my craft room. Check out this amazing sale - Everything is 50% OFF. This Momma wants a blingy new iPhone Case.

How about some inspiration?

Do you have any birthdays this time of year?

We do in our house, and if they look even remotely "Christmasey" - well,

let's just say...

THAT WON'T DO!

In the birthday girl's mind,

it's akin to cheating!

So, how about Black and Yellow?

and BUTTERFLIES?

and B L I N G!

I'm starting with some die cut circles, and some distress ink.

There's a hint of blue, just a little extra color.

I added sentiments.

I added butterflies. I sprayed these with some

sparkly goodness from Color Box, and added some Baby Bling ... B L I N G!

I put on Pennant Nestabling, created to perfectly

match Spellbinders Pennants!

I connected the pennants together with some 

buttons [Buttons Galore & More] and twine,

and some crepe ribbon.

I added some baubles to the bottoms,

because ...

you can never have TOO much B L I N G!

Am I right?

I want this to last, maybe use again, or hold up for display.

So, I'm thankful for NESTABOARD - I backed all

my pennants with matching board.

Enjoy BLACK FRIDAY.

Please, don't forget to stock up on some BLING!

Thanks for making us a part of your day,

Allie.
