Shine Brightly {like a diamond}

I’ll admit it, the name of this post is a little ridiculous. When I first created this card, it was based solely around my new Summertime Charm jar and matching die. After the main elements were stamped out, I felt like it needed some sequins and a sentiment. I wanted to do something that reflected the blinged out card and well, I came up with this. I won’t pretend that I didn’t have a popular RiRi song going through my head while I stamped this out.

I recently created THIS CARD , THIS CARD and THIS CARD that featured sequins, but wanted to go the pastel route for this one. After all, with the flowers blooming and Easter right around the corner, it’s hard not to think about these pretty colors!

Confession time: within a month or so, my collection of sequin colors has gone from ZERO to over TWENTY. I think I need an intervention. On the plus side of things- they are fairly inexpensive, pretty and I use them. On the other side- they are addictive and I neglect some other accessories because of them. Oh the trade offs of crafting….

Since this card features lots of Lawn Fawn goodies, I wanted to remind you all that they are sponsoring the current 10 Minute Craft Dash. Join the fun and you just might win a LF set of your choice, along with a 6 x 6 paper pack!

In closing, I’m curious, any specific colors of sequins you want to see used on an upcoming project? I plan on crafting sometime this weekend, so hopefully I can work in a few requests! :)
