Embellishments made easy with Tania

Hi again lovely Scrappingclearly Community. I had a bit of fun with the moodboard for this post. In all honesty, this week, I have been struggling for craft time due to family visiting from down South, it's kind of hard to get the mojo flowing too when there's a house full of people.

The moodboard this month is so bright and happy and I found the perfect solution to my time poor, mojo poor problem. In my stash from Scrappingclearly, I have a few ephemera packs with bits left over from other projects. The Dear Lizzy, HAPPY PLACE, die cut pack had the perfect colours.

Here's the moodboard:

I started with some scraps from some Maggie Holmes - BLOOM papers and made a few small tags.

Then with my Dear Lizzy, Happy Place, die cut pack, I picked a few matching die cuts and layered them up on my tags! I used mounting tape to add some of the layers for extra dimension!

They were finished off with a few different colours of twine from my stash and a cute little peg from American Crafts!

So now I  have some quick and easy embellishments for my next layout, or they would even make great card toppers!! Be sure to stay tuned to the blog and see how I use these embellishments on my next project!!!
Happy crafting!

Fun with Marquee Love by Tania

Happy Saturday everyone, hope the weekend is full of fun, love and laughter for you all! 

I just had me some fun, playing with the Marquee Love letter kit which was in my DT kit this month. I have to admit to having to think about this one for awhile, but after surfing Pinterest, and gaining some inspiration, my Letter 'B' was transformed!

Here's a shot of my desk, which shows you some of the products I used to decorate my light!

I used some Heidi Swapp Colorshine in Mint, Georgia Peach and Pink. The yellow was Dylusions ink. You can see my colour swatches where I tested a few different colours first. I was trying to match up the colour's of my daughter's bed covers in her room, as this is a pretty little gift for her!

The gorgeous Prima flowers are from my new DT kit and I've just pinned them on the letter with some Heidi Swapp lace ribbon and an American Crafts, clothespin. (That way, she can take them off if she doesn't like the flowers!) 

I also wanted to use the Marquee Love tape to decorate the edges, which I used in Gold. It was a little bit tricky putting the tape in the middle of the  letter, but thankfully, the tape is forgiving and I was able to peel it back up a few times and re-do!

Overall, this was a really quick and simple project!! They make great gifts and you can personalise them in many ways!! Possibilities are endless, just requires a little imagination and some inspiration!!!

There are so many gorgeous accessories in the Marquee Love range, take a look in the Scrappingclearly store!

See you next time,

Tania
