Want2Scrap Band 6x6 Overlay

Both of our daughters were very involved in our high school marching band program, which is very competitive in our State, so for a total of eight years my husband and I also volunteered with the program.  My youngest daughter graduated from high school last year so I am starting to make a memory album using 6 x 6 Overlays in Want2Scrap's 8 x 8 Square Chipboard Album. Today I am sharing some inspiration using Want2Scrap's Band - 6 x 6 Overlay.   I adhered the design paper from Scrapbook Customs with Zip Dry.

I cut my pictures to fit and then adhered it with Art Glitter Dries Clear Adhesive.  Then also with the Dries Clear Adhesive with a fine metal tip I added some Pompeii Glitter to the instruments on the Band Overlay.

At the top of the layout I adhered the Bella Bling Brackets and added several Royal Blue Pearls.

Want2Scrap's 6 x 6 Overlays really create a quick and elegant layout in a mini album.  I look forward to sharing with you more pages and ideas using the 6 x 6 Overlays.  Have a great day!

Christmas Cards with Bulk Bling Pearls

I want to share with you how much I love to use Want2Scrap Bulk Bling Pearls on my Christmas Cards.  When I make a bunch of Christmas cards and tags I am always looking for the most economical and quickest way to create beautiful items.  I love to use Want2Scrap's Bulk Bling Pearls with  Heartfelt Creations Paper Collections which include card fronts and tags and, sometimes even images that coordinate with Heartfelt Creations dies, to quickly create cards and tags that look so elegant!

I created my Sleigh Full of Gifts A2 sized card using Heartfelt Creations Celebrate the Season Paper Collection.  I used Heartfelt Creations Ornate Sleigh and Presents Die to die cut the sleigh and present images from the paper collection and adhered them to the card base using pop dots.  I adhered the non-adhesive Bulk Bling Pearls in White, Lavender and Purple using Beacon 3-In-1 Advanced Craft Glue. Finally, I added a touch of glitter to the sleigh and present for some sparkle.

Want2Scrap's Bulk Blink Pearls can be purchased in a variety of colors to coordinate with your project.  You get 1/2 cup pearls, which is approximately 700 flat back non-adhesive 8mm pearls.

Want2Scrap Dog Chipboard

Today I want to share with you a couple techniques to create beautiful dog chipboard embellishments for your projects.  I created this adorable dog scene using Want2Scrap's Dog Chipboard Embellishment, a Doghouse Chipboard Shape, and a Fence Chipboard Embellishment.

                            

To create the the Doghouse, using a pencil I traced around the different sections of the Doghouse on the design paper and scissor cut out the sections. I adhered the design paper sections to the chipboard with Dries Clear Adhesive.  To get an even more precise edge I then used a nail file along the edges of the Chipboard Doghouse.  I sponged Old Paper Distress Ink along the edges and inside the opening of the Doghouse to create depth and shading.  I then adhered the striped beige design paper to the back of the Chipboard Doghouse to cover the opening.

                                           
I heat embossed the Chipboard Dog and Chipboard Fence.  Before I started I covered each piece with Gesso.  For the Chipboard Fence I covered it with Clear Emboss It Ink and then added Weathered White Embossing Powder.  I tapped off the excess and heat set it.  To create the Chipboard Dog I covered it in Tree Branch Wendy Vecchi Archival Ink and added the coordinating Tree Branch Embossing Powder.  I tapped of the excess and heat set it.  Embossing chipboard creates a beautifully covered surface.

                                                         

This scene I created is now ready to be added to a scrapbook page!

Have a great day!
