Dazzling Diamonds and other Dew Drops...

Dew drops from The Robin's Nest are fun embellishments for your cards.

You can add color and texture and dimension!

First, I chose a simple shape and cut it out using a Sizzix die.  

Using Scraperfect's Best Glue Ever, I glued on different dew drop shapes 

in order to create a mosaic look for the front of my card!

Classified paper from The Robin's Nest makes a nice mat for the plain white card stock.

This month, the RN designers have linked up with Timeless Twine.

There are so many interesting ways to use twine. 

Wrap it around a panel...

or create a tail for a star!

Timeless Twine has yards of great colors to choose from!

Here I used Sorbet papers that have streaks of glitter.  

After adding my diamond dew drops, I stickle-fied the rest of the white card stock.

Not only does this help promote the "glitter look" of the card, it also covers up any glue smears. 

(Shhhhh! Secret!!)

Remember...Diamond Shaped Dew Drops are 20% off during the month of June.

Be sure to pick up a variety of shapes and colors!

Stamps used: Gel-a-tins

Just sailing by ...

to wish you Happy Tidings!!

This sentiment comes from Joy's Life: Pun in the Sun. 

And you'll have fun making paper boats with your kids this summer. 

Just use  pretty papers and stick them on your card endeavors!

Some twine accents help string along the nautical feel of this outdoorsy card!

Thanks for boarding this ship, er blog, today!

Not your average Knot!

This month, Robin's Nest Designers are tying the knot with Designers from Timeless Twine.

Timeless Twine

We are going to show you some fun ideas how to create

using papers and twine!

If you are into the mixed media look, you've come to the right place!

A bit of Classified Robin's Nest paper, ribbon, Timeless Twine in various colors...

And you have a funky cool card for any reason!

I used a 1" Glue Dot © to create this sun. 

 My trick:  Start with a knot in the end of your Timeless Twine and start off in the middle of the circle.  

I used Sakura 3D Lacquer to edge and line my panel in blue/white Timeless Twine.

Remember...this month, Diamond Dew Drops are 20% off!  

Hurray!!

Thanks for stopping by today.  Don't get tangled up in the same old twine ideas.
