Altered Acrylic Fall Sign...

I have finally made an acrylic sign for each of the seasons. Fall was the last one on my checklist so I can now mark that off...it will no longer go from summer to winter in this house, lol!


I love the 12x12 Acrylic sheets so much! I have tried each of them and love everyone more than the next!


I used the new Maxxi Girl Rhinestone Swirls in brown to create the smoke coming out of the chimney...to cute! The Coral and Sage Green Pearls were the perfect accents to go with this design.


The 72 Count Baby Blue Rhinestone also matched these awesome papers perfectly! I love that Want2Scrap™ has every color rhinestones and pearls and I can always find the perfect compliment to whatever I am creating!

Now in case you have not yet heard the store is now full of all the new CHA releases, so check out all the new Nestaboard and other new products in the store before they go.

Blingy Swirls - I'd Rather be in Paris!

Good morning! Today, I have a mini creative page to share with you using some of the NEW Want2Scrap™ products. I created this fun--I'd rather be in Paris--creative page using Nestabling™ Fancy Tags Two Black Rhinestones, NEW Nestaboard™ Fancy Tags Two, NEW Nestaboard™ Labels Twenty-Three, Baby Bling Pink Rhinestones and NEW Swirls, Maxxi Girl Rhinestones Silver from Want2Scrap™. To start I created the tag using the NEW Nestaboard™ Fancy Tags Two. I left the Nestaboard™ raw and then added part of the matching Nestabling™ Fancy Tags Two Black Rhinestones.Next I added the image using Crafty Secrets Mini Vintage Creative Scraps and 1'' Clear Epoxy Stickers. I added the image to the tag using 3D Foam Squares from Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L. Then I edged the image with diamond glitter.Next I used the Grand Calibur™ and LF-002 Creative Book Pages Two and S4-347 Labels Twenty-Three to create the die cuts. I used Soot and Simply Smooth White cardstock from Discount Cardstock and then I inked the edges with Antique Linen Distress Ink.Then on the black I added Gold ink to the edges and on the white I added Rich Cocoa ink to the edges.I used 3-in-1 Advanced Craft Glue from Beacon to adhere the die cut to the Nestaboard™. What a perfect match!!I started to assemble the creative page once I had all the pieces done. I added NEW Swirls, Maxxi Girl Rhinestones. I Love these large swirls!Look at all the gorgeous bling! I love the larger rhinestones in the center of the swirls.Here is a close up of the tag.I love this sentiment! The sentiment is also from the Mini Vintage Creative Scraps from Crafty Secrets.

----------------------------------

Good morning to everyone I hope you are all having a wonderful July morning. I know I am. I am thrilled to be here today not as a guest designer….but to my delight, as a new member of the Want2Scrap™ family and I could not be more happy.

When I was ask to be a guest designer I was so happy because I knew their products were great…but I have had such a blast making these projects and the Want2Scrap™ products give my pages that something special that makes them a real family heirloom.

My layout today is one of my mother and father in law. I love this cute photo of them and just how much in love after all these years you can see that they are.
