After assembling my kits each month, I always have some tiny little scraps or pieces left over from my Embellishment pack. These precious pieces of fibers, little jewels, brads or buttons, find their way to a bag for safe keeping. Here I will share tips on bringing them out of storage and back onto your pages, projects and cards.
1. Choose scraps from your Picnic kit and Gelli Arts prints. Check out this blog post on how to create these unique prints.

3. Create centers for your flowers. Punch tiny daisies from dark blue Picnic paper and add self-stick gem to center. Stack with larger daisies to form flower cluster.
4. Tie bows with baker's twine and attach to the back of the flower/leaf/tendril clusters with adhesive. I work with hot glue as it dries very quickly.
5. Attach your reinvented embellishments onto your paper crafting projects!
Thanks for stopping by and hope you have a wonderful week!
Those are really pretty Julie.
ReplyDeleteThese are wonderful Julie. Since I am new to my gelli plate, I have some sheets that I don't think are good enough to be the background on a card, but punching them into flowers or other shapes could be perfect. Thanks for a great idea.
ReplyDeleteWonderful ideas, Julie! I love how they all turned out!
ReplyDeleteAs soon as I saw the first picture I knew that these wonderful ideas came from you Julie. Thank you for sharing your gift and talent with us.

Where did you get the paper punch I love it and would like to get it for my collection??????
ReplyDeleteHi there, I used several here. The large pointed daisy is from Fiskars, the 5 petal retro flower is Marvy and the tiny daisy is Recollections(Michaels brand).
DeleteJulie, these are very inspiring. Thanks for all you do to help us use our Club Scrap kits to their fullest! :)
ReplyDeleteGreat re-inventing!
ReplyDeleteWonderful little tidbits. And I have more than one bag of scraps and leftovers.
ReplyDeleteWow! Gorgeous ...i just don't know what else to say!
ReplyDeleteJulie, you are such an inspiration. I think I need to get more acrylic paint in colors that match the kit colors and play some more with my gelli plate. These flowers and panels you've created are just amazing.
ReplyDeletegreat post, Julie. I do this all the time with POPs but I never thought to create swirlies using thin strips of paper.
