Sparkly Sweet Craft Notions Grand-Opening Hop!



Welcome to the Sparkly Sweet Craft Notions Grand-Opening Hop!
As you hop along each stop will be showcasing items that can be found in the NEW Sparkly Sweet Craft Notions online store.
The Sparkly Sweet Craft Notions store focuses mainly on brads and eyelets. However, it does have a few other crafty notions that you can't live without, along with being very proud to carry May Arts ribbon.

If you are arriving here from the Wonderful Pam's Blog @ http://alljazzed2create.blogspot.com
then you are right on track!

 Here is my wonderful array of Sparkly Sweet Craft Notions goodies that I got to play with for the Blog Hop!
Don't you just love that large paper clip!  SQUEAL!

I decided it was time to alter another Composition Book since school is right around the corner.  My kids start back next week.

I gathered a whole lot of crafty goodness to use with that gorgeous May Arts Ribbon and the fun brads and jute string.

Lots of Fancy Pants designs paper, stickers, chipboard and other embellishments.

My Unity Stamp Co. Stamps.
"smarty pants" by Simple Stories

 I also used some solid card stock and a variety of Tim Holtz Distress Inks.

 First, let me show you the finished Paper Clip that I altered into a Book Mark.  
I just love that Eyeglass Brad!!!

 I used some punched scalloped rectangles as my Bookmark Topper and filled it with a few stickers, chipboard pieces, and some buttons.  
I tied a small bow under the apple using the jute string from Sparkly Sweet.

Here is the finished Notebook and some of the inside pages, too.

 The large green flower is an Elegant Floral - Pleated Petal in Goblin Green from the Pinque Peacock Shop

I used the darling black chevron May Arts Ribbon to accent the bind.  The bow is tied at the top and the remaining tail is used as another page marker.

 I divided the book into 5 sections for each day of the week.  I placed a coordinating color of card stock at the front of each daily section and used some of the Fancy Pants chipboard pennants as page tabs.

3 Girl JAM *NEW Color Bundles Blog Hop*!

Happy Wednesday Blends!
It is with lots of excitement that I say
Welcome to the
3 Girl JAM *NEW Color Bundles
Blog Hop*!
If you just stopped in from Abby- http://scrappin-abby.blogspot.com/, then you are right on track.  If you are just arriving here and would like to Hop Along, head to the 3 Girl JAM Blog to start hopping

Today, as you hop, you are sure to LOVE  the 3 new color bundles you will be introduced to, and you will be delighted as you see the projects shared by the talented Design Team.

We don't want to keep you in suspense any longer . . .

First up is
The Coffee Bundle:
Latte and Cream

Next we have
The Royal Bundle:
Purple Passion and Gold Crown

And finally,
The Navy Bundle:
Navy Blue and Dress White


I chose to work with the the Navy Bundle (Navy Blue and Dress White) for my card today. 
I wanted to keep to the Navy theme, not only in color, but with all the elements I could on my card.

I started with Kraft cardstock as my base.  I paper pieced the sail boat (itty bitty stamp by Unity), created a 1.5" Fabric Covered Button (by Pinque Peacock) with a cute tugboat image , and designed a scene of waves by pleating a few rows of the gorgeous, crisp new colors of Crinkle Ribbon.  The papers I used were all from the 6x6 stack Every day Moments (by Teresa Collins).  The sentiment was matted several times for a nice focal "flare" and comes from the same itty bitty I mentioned above.

Now, please do take a moment to familiarize yourself with some amazing deals being offered to you at 3 Girl JAM!

....................................................................
We also have some fun new things in our store at www.3girljam.com

This "Peacock Color Challenge" linky party sponsor is Pinque Peacock

Pinque Peacock is sponsoring a ...


Pinque Peacock has just released a wonderful array of items for the "Peacock Beauty" New Release.  Dazzling Stick Pins and Luscious Fabric Covered Buttons.
Hop on over to the Pinque Peacock Shop and see all the beautiful items.


~ ~ ~ ~ NOW ONTO MY PROJECT ~ ~ ~ ~
For my project today, I am delighted to share my finished Altered Cotton Tote Bag (another New Item COMING SOON to the  Pinque Peacock Shop

I used a lot of supplies and techniques, so I will explain as I go along and share the images along the way, too.


I first started by stamping the Peacock (by Inkadinkadoo) using clear embossing ink, Blue Glitter embossing powder, and my heating tool.
The center flower image was stamped from the Unity KOM - 12/12 Everyday Fairytale using TH Distress Ink - Vintage Photo.  I then painted the leaves and flower petals with my Creative Inspirations Paints.  I love the sparkle and shine their paints have and they are so easy to work with.  I have tried them on several projects, and have been pleased with the result on ALL of them.

The Butterfly image was stamped from the Unity KOM - 1/12 HEART and SOUL and heat embossed with a lavendar embossing powder.

Although it is hard to tell, there is another stamp used behind the Layered Garden Beauties (larger fabric flowers available at Pinque Peacock).  It is the Circle Journaling Image with leaves.  It is from the Unity KOM - 8/09 Following my Heart.  I simply painted the leaves with some light green glitter glue. 
I hot glued the peacock feather ribbon around the top of the bag opening on both the front and back side of the Cotton Tote Bag.
 To add a little pizazz around each of the circles, I affixed gorgeous Flat Back Pearls, in an array of colors, that are from Miriam's Crafting Supplies.  I love the vibrant and rich colors of all her pearls and adore her unbeatable prices.

The small cluster of flowers near the bottom of the Cotton Tote are all Handmade Flowers from the Pinque Peacock Shop.  A few small and medium Felt Poppers and a few small Splendid Swirls.  I added more of Miriam's Pearls to the centers. The larger flowers pictured below are the Layered Garden Beauties.
The swirl of rhinestones near the butterfly is from Want2Scrap.  I really love the effect this gives to entire design.  The small sun in the upper corner is an off brand and the round circles of rhinestones under the Splendid Swirls are by Recollections (I think).
The peacock feathers are also handmade using a few supplies (Coordinations Cardstock, Stickles, Gold Dew Drop ink, Markers, Acrylic Paint, Perfect Pearls mist, and a black jelly roll pen).

I am so glad I got the idea to add the rows of 3 Girl JAM Crinkle Ribbon under the ribbon border on the top of the bag.  I love how it brings the color palette together.  I pleated the ribbon in rows of Sunflower Yellow, Goblin Green, Ice Blue, and Witches Brew Purple.  


I added a few droplets of Perfect Pearls, here and there, for added effect.

I am eager to make these Custom Decorated Cotton Tote Bags be available at the
Pinque Peacock Shop
VERY SOON

Make sure you hop over to the Craftin' Desert Divas Blog and peek in at the gorgeous Inspiration on display.  Then Link up for your Chance to Win an Amazing Prize!!!
