Sequins Galore!

Confession: I cannot stop creating with sequins. As you saw in yesterday’s post, I gave into the sequins trend and now I can’t put them down! I literally spent at least twenty minutes playing with different color combinations and sketching out some ideas I had to incorporate sequins into. However, before I show you any of those ones, I have a few more cards showcasing them inside this jar.

I recently received the Summertime Charm stamp set and matching dies {links below} and they work PERFECTLY with the sequins! Honestly, could you pass up a jar filled with pretty, sparkly sequins? I know that I couldn’t!

With the sunshine that peeked through over the weekend, I actually got my toenails painted and wore sandals. Granted, it was only around 50*, but in Seattle, we’ll take it! I think I was inspired by my freshly painted toes- I couldn’t stop pulling out my pink items!

I really love this sentiment- it works well for so many of my crafty friends! I have a dear, sweet friend who I’m planning on sending this card to, but I had to share it with you all before it went out the door. This friend truly does brighten my day and has blessed me in so many ways. I still get baffled at how blogging has brought so many amazing people in my life, all around the world. I love our crafty community!

That’s going to wrap up this post. I’ll be back tomorrow with a more personal post and I hope you all will weigh in. I thoroughly enjoy hearing from you all and this is a topic pretty much everyone can relate to. Intrigued? I hope so!

  1. This is adorable!! I love sequins! I found some great deals at Michael’s – they have a pack with 9 different colors, and Hobby Lobby. I have been putting them on everything.

  2. I have not gotten any sequins yet! I love what everyone is doing with them though and I know it won’t be long before I get some in my hot little hands. :) Love your jar with the sparkly sequins!

  16. This card is gorgeous with the sequins. Are the sequin simply glued on the front of the jar die?
