My Favorite Embellishments



On today's post on the CTMH National Paper Crafting Blog they are talking about clustering embellishments together for a new accent with that WOW factor!!

They have put stamped flourishes, diamond-shaped and round Sparkles, and stamped images that have been cut out  and popped up on 3-D foam tape all together resulting in a new embellishment accent with a powerful effect.


These are the examples they have shown with putting those elements together. Aren't they  beautiful??!! The entire layout can be seen by going to the link highlighted above. You don't want to miss it.
This is something I am surely going to want to try. I have done a little of this type of making my own embellishment by combining various pieces. But this gives me many more ideas.

My favorite embellishments  to use are ribbons, flowers, buttons and those Bitty Sparkles!!! LOVE them.  Also  I use stamps in a variety of ways. Just as they are, masked off  portions making a whole new stamp and cutting them out making them dimensional too. Oh and I can't live without glitter either!!!   I love so many of the embellishments and will be using this "clustering" idea for sure.

Thanks CTMH for a great tip today.
