Using Embellishments

March 27, 2008 (posted by admin)

These pages were done using various embellishments to create dimension. The embellishments include:

  • felt
  • buttons
  • flowers
  • stitching – real and faux

 Layout One Celebrate Making Memories Garden paper and 5th Avenue paper mixed together.  Embellishments are buttons and flowers with felt brads.

Layout Two 8 My Tongue Bazzill cardstock, with a couple of different patterned papers including fancy pants.  Embellishments are felt bits and making memories buttons with Karen Foster Floss with buttons and stitching.  I also used Prima say it crystals to add bling.

First attempt at Flocking

February 14, 2008 (posted by admin)

Ok so I have given Flocking a go to create my own embellishments this week.

Its a bit messy and a little bit fiddly but I got there in the end.

I tried a number of different glue products, and I found coloured 3M Scotch glue sticks work best for Flocking.

Check out the Techniques page for detailed instructions on how to make your own embellishments with Flocking.
