When we received the Pink Paislee pp I was pretty darn excited! I LOVE working with bold patterns. To me the black & white line is one you really can add any colour to to make everything POP!

I decided that I was going to make the focus the layers of different patterns using the same colour combo-black & white. I broke up the patterns by adding a hint of colour or solid black.

What makes this project so speedy is the new E-Z Runner® Refillables.  I’ve chosen to use the E-Z Runner® Permanent Strips Refilliable – the dispenser fits smoothly into my hand, I’m able to dispense as little or as much as I need and I know when it runs out I can just open it up and pop in a new refill.  No winding of tape, it just slots inside.

The papers I have selected are Simple Stories – Awesome, the colours are earthy and masculine, suited to my man bag!  Using the same adhesive I can attach some web-like ribbon.  I’ve also added some Photo Corners – Classic Style Kraft.  I attach this whole panel to the front of the lunch bag.

I selected a Bingo Card from the Awesome collection, distressed and inked the edges.  Placing Crafty Foam Tape strips to the reverse adds dimension.

Using more of the patterned paper I cut/embossed Spellbinders™ Classic Heart and Stars Five to create embellishments.  Affixing 3D Foam Squares – White to the reverse.

The finished bag.

The photo corners tone so well with the overall finish.

And, in the absence of anything girlie you cannot go wrong with hearts and stars!

Thank you for stopping by today.  Here is a list of the wonderful sticky products I used to create my man bag project.

I decided I really wanted to share this page. It has a bit of a funny story to it. I was in Winnipeg for a Crop & Create event. I was approached by a store owner at 11pm Friday asking if I want to do breakfast Sunday am. Sounds awesome. Then she said, okay so what if we do breakfast AND THEN a MINI LAYOUT CLASS! I looked at her like she was crazy because I had no extra supplies to whip up a class. So our event went to midnight both nights. Friday at 12:30 am we quickly drive to her store and I pick out product and the next day I whip up a layout and teach it to 24 people. It was one of the most awesome experiences I have ever had.  I have never created a layout for a class that fast in my life.

EVER!

so what’s a girl to do? Grab her E-Z Runner of course! The Scrapyard had Sizzix machines on hand , phew! (Click here to see the flower die, click here to see label die)So I was able to show the girls how to cut some awesome flowers & labels for their layout. To make the flowers pop, I used some 3D Foam Squares.

I did lot’s of hand doodling as well. That always makes things pop out too!

Thanks for letting me share!

Each row of medium sized 3D Foam Hearts has a different embellishment. I used craft foil, Perfect Pearls (a pigment powder) and glitter.

I lined them up on patterned paper, with silver Photo Corners on 2 of the layers.

The wood embellishment was adhered with 3D Foam Squares, the papers with E-Z Squares® Refillable.

Fast, fun and blingy!

I used these supplies:

Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L®: 3D Foam Hearts, 3D Foam Squares White Small, Photo Corners Silver, E-Z Squares® Refillable

• Jillibean Soup™: Chilled Cucumber Soup papers, Wood Flags
• WorldWin® Papers: ColorMates® Slate
• Ranger Ink: Perfect Pearls Silver
• WOW! Embossing Powder: Fab Foil Silver
• Glitter

My card today is rather simple, but sometimes adhering die cuts that are thin like this one can be tedious, unless you have the right adhesive!  The E-Z Dots® Permanent Refillable Dispenser is perfect for this job!
Simply lay your die cut down onto your work space and roll the E-Z Dots® all across it, since they aren’t attached in a strip, it only adheres to the card stock. It’s ready to adhere to your project.

Supplies:

Stamps- Lawn Fawn

Spellbinders® Paper Arts

Black ink

self adhesive pearls

enjoy!

Don’t miss today’s tutorial by Kelly Klapstein, keep scrolling down!

On her sixteenth birthday, my daughter decided to invite all her friends out for dinner. They dressed up in their party dresses and had a “Girls Night Out.”  I thought I’d design a scrapbook layout to remember this event, but also to give her some advice, which I found in the form of these Kaisercraft rub-ons that I adhered to the centre of the page.

I wanted to add some “sparkle” because every girl likes glitter, right? Especially when you are 16! So I used my Crafty Power Tape™ to create the black sparkly borders along the edges of the stamped lace.

It’s a little hard to see the glittery shine, but trust me…it looks so pretty in real life!

Here is how I made these sparkly borders:

First I used a Kaisercraft lace stamp on a 12″ long piece of paper.

Then I ran my Crafty Power Tape™ along the entire length of the edge.

I pulled off the adhesive backing.

I have a scrap piece of paper under the border while I pour on the glitter, then shake off the excess. I used Craft & Glitz Glitter.

This allows you to return the remaining glitter more easily into your container.

I made two sparkly borders with this technique.

Love this glittery effect!

The rest of my layout came together with the My-Stik™ tape runner and 3D Foam Squares™.

Plus, I used my favourite Black Photo Corners™ to showcase my daughter’s portrait.

The Kaisercraft “Remember Me” collection was perfect to create a dramatic layout with the black and red colour palette, and I also used a Kaisercraft Saturday Sketch for the design.

I hope this idea helps you add a little “sparkle” to your next project!
