Christmas in July!

Hi, AJ here with a head start to your Christmas card making today!

Since there was so much brand new holiday product at the CHA show, I felt a Christmas card in July was totally acceptable!  And what better product to add that sparkle and bling to your project than Want2Scrap!

The holidays are all about sparkle and bling when it comes to decorations, cards, and gifts- so for my card, I used the Labels Twenty-Five Nestabling in silver to outline my card stock cut using the Spellbinders Labels Twenty-Five die to cover my Labels Twenty-Five Nestaboard. 

The fabulous thing about the nestaboard, is you can cover is with paper, paint, or any other medium of your choosing, and then you have a fabulous little ornament to hang on your tree when you are done using it on the card.  ;)

I finished off the card with a few Baby Bling in Turquoise, some of my favorite Want2Scrap bling!  I add them to everything! :)

enjoy!

The Key to my Heart

Have you been enjoying the new product releases from Want2Scrap?!  Well, that's a silly question huh?  I was sure to snap up the Card Size Antique Keys w/hardware - Chipboard and put it to use right away on this card.  I love that Want2Scrap has great designs in dimensions for card makers and scrapbookers alike!  They think of everything!

This fun card evolved after a desk top cleaning session.  The background collage of papers originated as this.....

Oh my!  that pile of trimmings to the right of my cutter is always under development!  So I cleared away the recycleables and salvaged the pretty pieces and got busy making this card.

Another technique I want to share is alcohol inking multiple colors at one time on bling.  Here I am using a piece from Sleek Strips Silver Rhinestones- Self Adhesive.  The multi colored gem effect is made by tapping random dots of coordinating alcohol inks onto a felt inking pad and lightly tapping it over the bling.  I love the cool look to this custom colored bling.

Once the ink was dry, I was able to adhere the strips, all three at once by attaching to one side of the card and carefully peeling back the liner plastic for perfectly aligned strips.

Thanks for coming by and checking out my card today!

 Hello, friends!  Keely here to share my latest layout featuring fabulous Want2Scrap products. I couldn't resist designing with this adorable photo of my niece and her best friend.  I love the texture W2S products give my layouts--chipboard, bling, denim!

The chipboard diecut titles are one of my favorite new products.  I also used one of the 7x7" denim squares and self-adhesive pearls to create my flower.

The rhinestone Nestabling and swirls are a perfect finishing touch. 

Thank so much for visiting the blog today.

Hail Collectors

We don't get much hail here, which is a fact I am thankful for!  But a few weeks ago we did get a small amount of hail.  As soon as it stopped falling, the kids were out collecting it.  The collection didn't last long, of course, as it was still 90 degrees outside!  For this layout I piled on the gorgeous new products from the summer CHA release.  I LOVE the new silhouettes!

Once Upon A Bling Time!!!



So I am sure that everyone has been enjoying all of the new releases that Want2Scrap has designed for this new CHA release. I thought I would share one of their new amazing chipboard album, one of my personal favorites…..Lattice Chipboard Album!

This album was created using so many different types and styles of amazing BLING and guess what you can find them all right here at Want2Scrap…isn’t that so perfect.

For the cover of the album and my favorite part of the entire album, tulle was woven in between each of the Lattice slats and to make it pop even more, a Want2Scrap 72 Count White Pearls was placed in the middle of the Lattice X’s.

So grab a cup of coffee or tea because you are going to want to sit a while and take in each and every page, there is so much to look at, and you won’t want to rush.

Here is a close up of how the tulle was woven in between the lattice slats and then embellished with the Want2Scrap 72 Count White Pearls and Want2Scrap 72 Count Black Pearls

Page Number One, adorned with the Classy Corners Class and Want2Scrap Chipboard Embellishment Style A

Page Number Two, embellished with Flowers White Pearls Small and Flowers Rhinestone Brown

Page Number Three, Flowers White Pearls Small, Flowers Rhinestone Brown and
