Here are the embellishments I made~

There are SO fun and simple to make! Just grab some scraps of patterned paper (I used patterned paper from The Stamps of Life), cardstock (The Stamps of Life and Stampin' Up!), and glitter paper (?). I added some rhinestones from Want 2 Scrap and liquid pearls by Ranger onto my creations. The punches are from Stampin' Up! and EK Success. You could also use dies!

I really adore these! I love the bright colors and how they POP off the neutral/soft tones! What do you think? I would love to hear your thoughts in the comments below!
