Something New at Craft Us Crazy!

A new theme goes up today at Craft Us Crazy:  Something New/Favorite Embellishment! 
We have two sponsors for this challenge.  One is Digital Delights.  The prize is 3 digital images!
About Digitial Delights:  Welcome to Digital Delights, a magical place filled with little digi creations from all walks of life. We have a wide range of digital stamps which are delivered straight to your email 24/7! In addition we also have a growing range of "Delightful Piecings" which are paper pieced files designed to be used with your cutting machines or for hand cutting. Fancy a new blog makeover, header or new watermark, then stop by our sister site Delightful Custom blogs.

Our second sponsor is The Pixie Cottage.  The prize is a $10 certificate!


There are several new things on my card.  The silhouette itself is new (from Made by Janet). I just got the Spellbinders die behind her and the Tattered Angels stencil I used for the background shape is also new.   Of course, some of my favorite embellishments are on here, too:  button, seam binding ribbon, twine.  The papers are all from Glitz Design and the little tag is a die from Papertrey Ink.  There is also something OLD on this card and that's the crocheted flower.  I came across six of these when I cleaned out by jewelry cabinet.   They are actually button covers from a dress I had in the 80's!  I just removed them from the button cover and voila! - a pretty embellishment!  Be sure to check out Craft Us Crazy for more inspiration and for all the details on this challenge and the prizes!

  3. I almost broke out in a cold sweat thinking about having to go through my jewelry drawer. Horrors!

    I'm going to have to get you to keep an eye out for some buttons for a cardigan I just finished knitting. I found some I liked, but they were $4.98 a piece! Yikes!
