Time to Wish Father's Day card (Nina)

It's Nina here on the blog again. Today, I have a Father's card to show you that uses some of my favorite "feminine" elements. I don't know about you, but I don't make enough Masculine cards. I seem to be drawn to pinks and other girly colors, and bling :). Father's day is one occasion when I force myself to get creative with manly cards. And why not use my favorite "pinkish" color and bling even on them?

I followed the color scheme of some Prima papers that are vintage-inspired with a hint of melon (or pinkish orange). The main panel is a Want2Scrap Manilla tag, which I stamped with a woodgrain pattern stamp. The sentiment, frame and pocket watch are from The Craft's Meow's For My Dad set. I also stamped a strip of paper with cancelled postage image from TCM's Telegram set.

The bling on my card is subtle, but I thought they were necessary. :) I adhered a row of three Want2Scrap Baby Bling Rhinestones Brown - 100 Count - 2.5 mm. on the bottom right of the tag. Buttons and burlap twine finish the card.
Time-det
What do you think? Did I pull off a masculine card with pink (ish) and bling? I hope so, but I don't think the recipient will even notice :). Have a great day!

Be You (tiful)


 Hello, friends!  Keely here to share with you my latest Want2Scrap layout.  I recently saw the caption, "Be You (tiful)".  How wonderful!  Be yourself...define your own kind of beauty.  I love it!  Want2Scrap and Graphic 45 are the perfect combination.

My inspiration for this layout about beauty was this Want2Scrap Dress Form and Silhouette measuring 11" tall.  So elegant and lovely.  I added Nestabling white pearls to accent my layout.

I love to incorporate lots of inking, layering and distressing into my projects.  My favorite all purpose adhesive is Beacon's 3 in 1 Advanced Craft Glue.

The Want2Scrap Chipboard Alphabet-Stylish was inked to match my project and decorated with mini pearls.

Thank so much for visiting the Want2Scrap blog today.  I hope you enjoyed viewing my project.

You are amazing


Hi all, AJ here to share another blinged out card using Want2Scrap Bling!



For my card, I used the Spellbinders S4-192 Blossom to create my card shape.  The butterfly is from the LF-006 Wonderful Wings die set, which coordinates perfectly with the Want2Scrap Wonderful Wings Bling!  The smaller bling beneath the sentiment is a left over piece from the Small Fancy Brackets bling in silver.

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!
