A card and... a paper clip idea!

Hello everyone. Here is a card I made with butterfly stencil. I traced the butterfly on foam and felt sheet and I cut it out with scissors. I used glitter glue around edges of butterfly:) and added chenille stem for middle of butterfly body and antenna.The solid paper used is Recollections and pattern paper is from the Yearbook paper pad. Felt, foam sheets, chenille stem , paperclips, puff ribbon and stencils was purchased at Dollar Tree store. Sparkle glitter glue is from Micheal's. Click any photo to enlarge it!

I used my hot glue gun and adhered a 50mm paperclip to back of butterflies. These can be used to clip to cards and as book page markers:) These can be made in butterflies, hearts, flowers etc. This is a great idea and it decorates your paper clips:) These are awesome! I hope, I inspired you to make some decorated paper clip. These are fun to make!


This card is for these challenges
Paper Playtime Challenge #42 anything goes.

Basket of flowers!

Hello friends! I hope you week is starting off good and you are well. Here is a recycled project. The box I used for this project was a box filled with chocolate candy. This was a Christmas present from my friend. I keep the box after all the chocolate was gone and I adhered some pretty pattern paper to it:). This box was too nice to trash it. Don't you think so too? I used Mod Podge Gloss -Lustre to adhered paper to box and I painted the Mod Podge all over the pattern paper to give the paper a glossy shine:) I used gems, gold crafts wire, brass finished fasteners and puffy paint to embellish flowers and basket. I used pop dots to give the flowers and basket some dimension.


The pattern paper is from the Yearbook Paper pad. This paper is so pretty! The solid paper is Recollections card stock. I used Doodlecharms flower on page#91 and the basket is on page #116. flowers cut @ 2 inch and basket @ 2 7/8 inch. I used Design Studio so I could cut them to fit the box.


Here is the box before I decorated it and the top is after:) I love the outcome of this project! I just love it:)

Rose stamped ... gate fold card!

Hello out there! Happy Sunday to you all. I hope you are well and having a wonderful day. The card is A2 size. I embossed the card with Cuttlebug folder (Distressed Stripes). Thank you stamp is a Inkadinkado #17 clear stamp and paper is Recollections card stock. I stamped the roses on white cardstock with black ink and I cut it out with scissors and used Ek Success (Pastel Colors) Memory pencils to color roses and I added Raspberry Sparkle Glitter Glue to roses to give them some sparkle :)


This rose stamp I bought at Dollar Tree Store for $1.00! I used the corner rounder on the pink and blue card stock to round the corners. I won this green corner rounder from a blog friend. Mollie is so generous and always having a giveaway:) Here is Mollie's blog if you want to check it out. Cricket's Cricut Creations
