Madge's Scrappin Lounge July Kit Reveal

We had a lot of fun embellishments in our kit this month.  Here's a picture of the July Embellishment Kit from Madge's Scrappin Lounge.

Here's a card I made, using the "scrunch ribbon" from 3 Girl Jam.  

I also created this card for the weekly Eureka Stamps challenge.  You can read all of the details on my post here.

Here's a close-up photograph of the ribbon.

Here's another close-up.

I also made four tags, using the adorable little chipboard "library tags".

On this tag, I used two of the little orange letters (from Crate Paper) and one of the tags from Elle's Studio and some of the twine (from Jillibean Soup).

I just love the little wooden "for you" flags (by Jillibean Soup).  I glued this one onto the chipboard tag so that the holes were lined up and threaded some of the twine through both of them and added a small bow.  I used two more of the orange letters and the number 9 from the sheet of sticker numbers (from CTMH).  This will make a cute birthday tag for Alyssa, who's turning 9.

I wound some twine around this tag several times and put "luv u" on the top.  I used two of the little hearts from the Studio Calico sticker sheet and added them with pop dots.  I used some more twine to make a hanger.

I used an arrow and a heart sticker (from Studio Calico) and added "luv u" and twine.

The best part is that I have LOTS of these goodies left to create with!  The kit is very generous and I know I'll use all of it eventually ~ these are some of my favorite embellishment manufacturers.

Thanks for stopping by and have a great week.

Eureka Challenge #100

It's a new week and time for a brand new challenge at Eureka Stamps.

This week's challenge, #100, is "Swimming".  Here's the card I created for today's reveal.

I used this cute stamp as a birthday card sentiment.  It's from the Eureka store and you can find it right here.

I used a piece of patterned paper from the BG Highline collection on the front of my card.  The bows are made with crinkle ribbon from 3 Girl Jam.  They are part of Madge's Scrappin Lounge July Embellishment Kit.  

Here's a close-up.

Here's one more.

Cute ribbon, huh?   I have a LITTLE trouble tying it, but love the "crinkled look".

If you'd like to play along and you have something that would fit in the swimming theme, link up over at the blog.

Thanks for stopping by and have a wonderful week.

More from Madge's Scrappin Lounge

I've used some more of the goodies from the June Embellishment Kit from Madge's Scrappin Lounge.  Here's a picture of the goodies ~ although I got some little wooden figures, a bicycle and a car instead of the cameras.

I decided to create an ATC to really showcase the little wooden figures I received.

The first thing I did was to lay the mask on top of the corrugated piece of 2 1/2 x 3 1/2 piece of paper.  I used some spray mist (several coats) to achieve this effect.  

Here's a side view ~ I hope you can see the "lattice effect".

I cut two pieces of green paper and cut "grass" on the top and made little hills.  I put the wooden pieces on tiny pop dots.  The sun and cloud are fussy cut from some patterned paper.  I used one of the sequins and one of the rhinestone pieces in the middle of the sun.

Aren't these little wooden figures cute?

I also made this tag with the kit.

I tied a big bow with some of the lace and added two more rows of it.  I added this tiny wooden bicycle and the bird as my "simple things".  The buttons are from my stash.

How cute are the little bike and bird?

Here's one more picture of the big bow.

Thanks for stopping by and I hope you have a great week.

Madge's Scrappin Lounge Embellishments Kits

Hello and happy Thursday!

I'm currently subscribing to Madge's Scrappin Lounge Embellishments Kits.  Here's the June kit that she sent us.  Mine isn't identical but it's real close.  Instead of the little wooden cameras, I got some people and a car.  I'm planning on making an ATC with them.

Due to the fact that I've been on vacation, I have only used the gold sequins so far.  I used them on this Eureka Stamps DT card.

Here's a close-up of the card and it shows off the sequins a bit better.

I added a tiny black bead to the center of each sequin to tie it in with the black mat on my card.

I got home late last night and have been pooped today.  I HOPE to get a couple more projects done tonight and I will get them posted as soon as possible.

Thanks for stopping by!
