Hey their Peeps! It’s time again for another fun linky party with Crafty Secrets. It’s summertime! It’s the time of year kick back, relax and enjoy life. Maybe you pile in the car and take a trip to the beach, you might go for a hike in the mountains, go camping under the stars, play in the pool, or sit in the shade and sip lemonade. Your challenge this month is to celebrate summer in a layout, a mini album, a tag, a card or altered art project.
I created a card and had loads of fun mixing and matching the patterned papers and a few vintage images and digital stamps.
Quick Crafty Tutorial……make your own embellishment by wrapping a ribbon or buralp trim that coordinates with your project around a paper clip…hot glue to secure and layer on a button tied with string. These are fairly addictive to make and you can mix and match your ribbons and button to match your project.
Crafty Secrets Supplies….99 cent papers Blue Paisley Stripe,, CD 3 Typography, Bathing Beauties Digital Art Stamps, CD2 Creating with Digital Illustrations.
Other Supplies…Petaloo flowers, Really Reasonable Ribbon –Canvas Color Band with Stitched Edge Sage.
Please enjoy the projects created by the teamies…

Hi Ginny.
Love your card today. How did you make the blue pearls on the chain? Is it one piece that you buy like that or did you put it together? Very interesting — never seen something like that on a card and I really like it.
Thanks! Mara

Great tip on the paperclip embellishment! Love that teal flower 🙂
Beautiful, and love the flower….you always have the best details and I am thinking the inside is just as beautiful as the out….another masterpiece!
Oh Ginny this is just fabulous! Love all the black & white with the ocean blue! AMAZING detail work and of course that paper clip embellishment is an awesome idea! You never cease to inspire me! Well done!
