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

2012-05-31T01:00:00.000-04:00

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!

72 Count - Silver Rhinestones - Self Adhesive and 72 Count - Pink Pearls - Self Adhesive are highlighted in this rosette.

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

2012-05-30T01:00:00.000-04:00

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.

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.

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.

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.

Have a great day!

Princess Layout with Alyssa

2012-05-29T01:00:00.000-04:00

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!

Wonderful Wings

2012-05-28T01:00:00.000-04:00

Hello, friends! It's a rare occasion when I can get both of my boys to pose for a photo. I took this photo recently on a family trip. It amazes me how fast they have grown. I wanted to create a beautiful layout featuring my guys that I could frame and hang in my home office to see everyday. Who says a masculine layout can't include bling and butterflies?

I chose patterned papers in brown, blue, and green for an outdoor, masculine feel. The Want2Scrap Chipboard Alphabet-Stylish are one of my favorite products. I love the font. I shaded them with teal and brown ink for a wonderful accent. I added K&H for my boys initials.

The newsprint patterned paper is Classified by The Dove's Nest. I inked, tore, and curled the paper for dimension.|

I wanted dimension and texture to ground my photo. The Want2Scrap 6x6" Chipboard Backing was perfect for my 4x6" photo.

My favorite accents on this layout are the Want2Scrap Wonderful Wings Bling butterflies. I placed them on patterned paper, cut them out, and adhered them to the layout with dimensional adhesive. The trailing bling following the butterflies was created with Want2Scrap BYOB--Build Your Own Bling.

Hi, Nina here on the blog today. I have a fancy butterfly card to show you. I use the Want2Scrap Swirls Silver Rhinestones for the flight path.

These swirls really add a special touch to any card. I finished the card with sticker and paper scraps, half a doily and pompom ribbon.

Here's a close up of the butterfly from The Craft's Meow's Beautiful Spring. It's colored with Copic markers. I adhered the body using Glue Arts Adhesive Squares™ Brand Adhesives-ExtremeTac Minis.

Have a great day!

Pretty floral and bling tags

2012-05-19T01:00:00.000-04:00

Hello friends! Dana here with some quick gift tags that are quick and easy with a great vintage feel.

I began by misting four medium Manilla Tags from Want2Scrap with mists by Tattered Angels and Clearsnap Smooch Spritz. Leave them to dry or speed the process by drying with a heat gun.

Next, a touch of bling from Beautiful Bling Borders-Fancy That! by Nina Brackett. Use scissors to cut the bling strip into four sections and then each again to provide a top and bottom "bracket" like I assembled them above.

Adding a stamped oval frame, stamped,die cut and glittered butterfly, paper flower, trims and 72 Count - Coral Pearls - Self Adhesive is a snap! And before you know it....

....you've got a whole collection ready for gift giving! Thanks for stopping by.

My Inspiration Album...

2012-05-17T09:24:00.000-04:00

Every girl needs an inspiration album, full of wonderful things and colors to draw from when you need a little kick start to get creating. I am going to share mine with you. I used this fantastic Assorted Rectangles Chipboard Album by Want2Scrap as a fun starting place.

On each page I focused on a different thing that inspires me. Both technology and of course my wonderful family!

Who is not inspired by fun fabrics and textures? My love of photography and cameras is always a great place to start to get my creative juices flowing.

The beauty of nature and art are always inspiring to me.

When all else fails food and my love of color works every time!

As always just getting my hands a little messy is enough in itself to get me inspired to create.

Of course we need to get some detail shots to give you a feel of how inspiring all these things really can be.

Now it is your turn, create your own inspiration album. It will be fun making it...and drawing from it whenever you need a little push.

A Blinged Out Mother's Day Card For My Daughter-in-law.

2012-05-13T07:30:00.000-04:00

Hello everyone!
True here, and today I am sharing a triple duty card with you.

Karen gave me the OK to create a card for my post here and for a blog hop that is gong on over at my blog.
I wanted to share some pretty bling with my hoppers too!

I also needed to create a Mother's Day card for a very special lady in my life. My daughter-in-law Kristin. She is expecting our very first grandchild in October!

I am a firm believer that from the very second of conception, a baby is a baby, so that makes Kristin a mom even though the little one is still in her tummy. :)

Kristin, like her mother-in-law, LOVES BLING so I really did it up on this one!
The pretty vertical piece to the left of the image is Beautiful Bling-Black Wave Rhinestone/Silver.
I also used some Hot Pink Pearls and a super brilliant Heart Ribbon Slide.

I broke out with my Copic markers for a change on this one. :)

Preferred Partner Products Used:
Beacon - Fabri-tac

Other Products Used:
Digital stamp by Mo Manning
Ribbon Club assortment from Really Reasonable Ribbon
Bazzill Pepper Dotted Swiss from Discount Card Stock.

Fancy Pants designer paper from StopAndScrap.

If you would like to see the inside of the card or get more info on other products used, please visit my blog...after you leave me some ♥LOVE♥ here of course! :)

Everyone here at Want2Scrap would like to wish all of the mothers out there a VERY HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY! :)

Thanks for dropping by!

Elegant Congratulations

2012-05-12T01:00:00.000-04:00

I have an elegant Congratulations card for you today that is perfect for the upcoming Graduation season. It's also appropriate for a job promo, engagement, wedding, and any other event that gives us an occasion to celebrate!

I used the Want2Scrap Fancy Tags two Nestabling and Nestaboard as a focal point to highlight the stamped sentiment, which is from The Craft's Meow's Timeless Tags set.

The patterned paper was created using stamps from The Craft's Meow's Simply Delightful set. I accented the flower pattern with Copic markers. A wide silky black ribbon is all you need to finish the card.

Hey all, AJ here with another card using Want2Scrap's Nestabling!

For my card today, I decided to use the Nestabling Labels Twenty-Four White Pearls on the card edge instead of on the focal point. I die cut my card shape from white cardstock, and then another from patterned paper. After adhering the patterned paper to the card front, I attached the largest of the Nestabling pearls to the card front.

For my flower center, I couldn't find that just right size for the middle, so I cut a pearl from the Nestabling Beaded Square White Pearl!

have a good one!

2012-05-09T01:00:00.000-04:00

Hello, friends! Today, I've had the pleasure of designing with some of my favorite Want2Scrap products by Donna Salazar Designs. I love the texture of the ATC in Canvas. I used the canvas as a base for my chipboard accents. The Designer Embellies Mixed Media Elements includes the Bird, Wings, Crown, Tag, and Leaves. I love how the chipboard accents accepted the rich ink colors I chose.

Next, I chose to cut the Nestaboard Labels 25 in half to use above and below my photos. I covered it with patterned paper by The Dove's Nest, inked the edges, and added Nestabling Labels 25 Silver Rhinestones.

Lastly, I added "Love" from the Want2Scrap Chipboard Sentiments--Words of Love to complete my title.

Have a wonderfully creative week!

A cupcake with a flower and bling twist!

2012-05-08T16:48:00.000-04:00

Cupcakes are a wonderful way to celebrate birthdays and I am forever falling in love with new ways to "build" them on cards! Today let's use Double Rose Ribbon White 1.5" and Beautiful Bling Borders-Fancy Waves! by Nina Brackett....

I tinted my rose ribbon using antique rose glimmer mist and glued a single rose strip to form the bottom layer of the "frosting" area. I then added three more roses cut into individual pieces and layered to form the rounded top. The bling border scallops are the perfect fit for the rose ribbon and provided that little something extra to the design.

A real birthday candle tops the cupcake and a hand tinted half doily gives this card an unexpected pop of lime green. I kept it simple with a kraft cardstock card base and kept the focus on the sweet details of this floral and bling confection!
