Just Give Me Stamps...

Happy Travels...

Hello again!  I'm back today to share a project I made with the new Happy Travels collection from Glitz Design! 

This project was initially intended to be a hot air balloon, but all of the flowers kind of made it difficult to attach the strings where they should go...so I guess it's more of a decorative topiary!  :-) 

I had a TON of fun making this project!  I cut out over 150 flowers, rolled them up, inked all the edges, and secured them on a foam ball using quilting pins.

Here's a close up photo of the Giant Rhinestone and epoxy word tag (all from the Happy Travels collection).

In this photo, you can better see the Layered Sticker I used.  Don't you just love the glitter??  Happy sigh...

For more projects using the Happy Travels collection, make sure to check out the Glitz Blog!

 

Well, that's all from me today.  I will be back tomorrow to share the last of my Glitz CHA projects.

I will also be back tomorrow to share some photos form my first CHA day!  :-)

 

Hugs, Laurie

Pretty in Pink...

I'm back today to share a project I made using the brand new Glitz Collection Pretty in Pink!

I altered this frame using lots of different Pretty in Pink papers, Glitzers, Cardstock Stickers, Peek-A-Boo and one of the new Giant Rhinestones!

I framed this photo of my daughter using one of the uber pretty Peek-A-Boo frames!  And those Glitzers...just LOOK at those gorgeous blingy, vintage stickers!  LOVE them!

You can see more Pretty in Pink projects over at the Glitz blog!

Thanks for stopping by!  ~Laurie

French Kiss...

Hi there!  I'm writing this from sunny foggy California!  I arrived yesterday, and am having a BLAST with Tosh!  Before heading out again, I wanted to pop in here and share one of the projects I made for Glitz's CHA booth using the brand new French Kiss collection!  I ADORE this line with all of it's burlap, vintage, creamy goodness!  Happy sigh....

I chose several of the more creamy patterned papers for my stacking boxes. 

I adorened them with some of the new Layered Stickers (do you SEE the gorgeous glitter that come on them??), trims, & buttons.

From this top view, you can better see one of the Layered Stickers and Giant Rhinestone I added to the top box. 

I really cannot wait to see Glitz Design's booth!  I will make sure to take lots of pictures and share them here with you all!  :-)

You can see more projects featuring the new French Kiss Collection over at the Glitz Blog! 

I'll be back tomorrow to share another project with you!

Hugs,
Laurie
