Glitter Crackle with Graphic 45

Hi all! For this week’s Friday card, I went back to hit my scrap pile. I chose some Glitter Crackle from The Robin's Nest and paired it with leftover graphic images from Graphic 45's Place in Time collection.

Enjoy!

Fabulous Fragments - Using More Scraps

I've been on a mission to get rid of my scraps. Here is another card using all scraps. Speaking of scraps - don't forget to follow the new Scraps-to-Treasures Blog - a new blog to celebrate scraps. Follow the blog - tell them I sent you - and we both could win a prize! They will also be hosting their first Scraps-to-Treasures blog hop for the year - so come back next Saturday to see some inspirational New Year's projects using, of course, scraps!

Lacey Punched Borders

Instead of tossing those scraps, use border punches to make make your cards a bit more special!

Bits of Scrap Card

Cash is too short not to use every scrap of cardstock in your craft room. That's my theory, anyway. There is an entire scrappin' group that seems to agree (Scraps to Treasures). Look what I did with a few scraps of Glitter Crackle cardstock from The Robin's Nest!

Angel Fish Doodle

Hi Everyone,

Today'post features Angel Fish Doodle - all glitzed up. Seriously, this is one amazing digi! With beautiful flowing fins and tail, this digi will pop off your projects.

Here is a closeup of the Angel Fish in all her glitz and glamor.

Digi stamps are a great value for those looking to get their money's worth. They are more versatile than rubber stamps as they can be resized to fit your project. You can get this digi right here.

Scraps to Treasures - Happy Birthday Blog Hop

Hi Everyone,

It's great to be back with all of you this Saturday for another Scraps to Treasures Blog Hop. Today's hop features many more timeless projects using scraps with one major theme - birthdays! And make sure you hit all the blogs, because Robin has a giveaway! One lucky follower will receive a Scrappy Goodie Mix! It will have several different scrappy items with a value of about $20!!! To be entered for this awesome Blog Candy you MUST leave a comment on EACH blog in the hop. If you become a new follower you will earn an added entry. Please leave a comment that you became a follower.

If you are passionate about stamping or scrapbooking, and love the play with scraps, Click here to join us for next month's hop - the hop on September 21 will feature altered items.

It has been my mission for months now to use only scraps in my projects. And I'm proud to say, I've been fairly successful. Made one group of cards with a new paper pack - but everything else is coming from scraps - with my pile FINALLY, albeit slowly, dwindling down. All the images in my cards today are left over from Graphic 45 Place in Time projects. Since I had lots left over with birthday images, I made more than one card.

Have a great weekend, and we'll see you right back here next month for the Altered-Items Blog Hop.

Your next stop is Paula. Here is the entire line up in case you become lost.

Everything That Glitters - Glitter Blog Hop

Hi Everyone!

Welcome to the Glitter Blog Hop hosted by Lorby's World. These talented crafters believe a little or a lot of glitter can make any project sparkle, and today they are going to prove it with their creations. Please visit each participant and leave a little bit of love on their blogs.

Jearise from Lorby's World has a special drawing to go along with today's hop. One lucky winner will win a $10 gift card from Michael's. Just leave a comment on her blog so we know you joined us today. The winner will be announced on Sunday, July 28, so make sure you visit that day to see if you are the lucky winner.I am delighted to present simple cards (you know me these days - quick & easy!). However, beauty is added to these cards with glitter. Glitter adds a quiet delicacy to every card. The first three cards use Glitter Ritz to jazz up die-cut flowers. For the last card, I used beautiful Glitter Crackle cardstock (The Robin's Nest) for the flower.

As long as we're talking glitter - I am also finishing up 100 wedding invitations for my niece's wedding. All posies were hand cut and glittered! No two invitations alike! :D Here are just a few.

And for more glitter...I purchased a new eClips last week and am enjoying finally being able to cut more intricate embellishments that my Cricut just could not handle. So I am now working on a gift pack of cards with some glittered embellishments.

Yes, I'm pretty much addicted to glitter....with stories to tell. I did once e-mail my kids to warn them that when I die, do not get all excited about the shiny gold that covers my craft room floor - but then I thought about how much I spend for glitter! All that glitters in my craft room might as well be gold!

Make sure you visit Lorby's World today. Leave a comment on her blog, and you will be eligible to win a $10 Michael's Gift Card.

Thank you for stopping by today and your next stop is Jamie. Enjoy the Glitter Hop projects. Here is the entire lineup in case you get lost.
