Treasure









What craft supply do you treasure most?
Is it an embellishment or a specialty tool?

Love

 Oh, bold & sparkling love!

This tag was made with a mix of elements. I've always enjoyed creating a "collage" out of my embellishes. It's probably what you would call my style - eclectic collage!

I've had this gold sequin FOREVER & I keep trying to use it, but it has never worked for me until now. I made a little bow out of it.

Do you have anything in your stash that you keep trying to use, but it only turns into one of those craft fails? Have you finally succeeded or are you still trying?

A Random Collage




My mission this year is to use what I already have stashed away in my craft studio. This piece fully represents that.

A wood box lid was painted to be used as the "canvas." Then I picked random embellishments & combined them into a collage.

This piece resides happily in my living room.

Cupcake 195: Tagtastic!

Hello, everyone! Today is an exciting day for me as it's my first challenge as a guest designer for Cupcake Craft Challenges. They asked me to join them for the month of June, so every week you will see a new creation by me that will be featured as inspiration for their participants. Wonderful, right? Be sure to visit us at Cupcake Craft Challenges & join in the fun!


For this challenge, we were challenged to create a tag, but it couldn't be just any tag. It had to be tagtastic! I decided to grab a variety of my supplies that have been waiting to be used, so every detail & embellishment is probably 6 months or older. My Mission 2012: Use It is on it's way to be completed!

Adore

I only just recently learned that there is actually a term for cutting an image out - Fussy cutting. I'd heard people refer to it before, but it wasn't until this challenge by 365 Cards that I decided to find out exactly what it meant. Ha! Fussy cutting? It's just cutting - a classic method used by any crafter who collages, scrapbooks or makes anything with paper or fabric.

Anyway, I'll be in the know & start using the term :)


The big, gold flower was fussy cut - It's gorgeously coated with glitter for lots of sparkle!
