Dress It Up With Sequins

 Hello, friends!  I love working with sequins.  
In fact, when I was *much* younger
I collected those cute felt applique kits and spent hours stitching sequins onto
Santa's beard or Frosty's hat.  I like that you can really glam something up or just
add a subtle sparkle with a lot or a few sequins!
So today I have two card variations using a little and a lot of Doodlebug sequins.

I think that my most favorite way to add sequins is to hand-stitch them.
For this card I first started with a set of thin dies, felt and a scratch piece of paper


The thing that I love most about Doodlebug's sequins is that you get a nice 
mix of flat, opaque, clear and shiny pieces in each jar.  I also used some 
clear sead beads that I had on hand, which is a necessary component when
stitching sequins...plus it looks pretty too!

You could also make the stitched motif removable (from the card) and 
add a pin back or piece of magnet so that it can be displayed in other ways.

Doodlebug Products are from the Sugar Shoppe Collection and Cupcake Sequins

 This next card goes with the less timely approach to adding sequins...mini adhesive dots!
I've used the 3/16" High Tack Adhesive Dots by Xyron;  a great size for sequins.

I simply followed the dot design on the patterned paper in attaching the sequins.

Doodlebug Products are from the Sugar Shoppe Collection and Lily White Sequins.

I hope that you find some fun ways to add Doodlebug Sequins to your projects too!

Sugar Shoppe, Birthday Girl!

Hello, friends!  Are you ready for a party?!?
Whether you're an 'older' girl or a young 'un, there's
nothing more fun than the new 
SUGAR SHOPPE COLLECTION
by Doodlebug Design

As you can see, I have gathered together some fun party goods
that would surely bring delight to a little (or big) birthday girl!

First up, we have the birthday girl's crown!  
 I found this cute tiara template online at Picklebums.com 
The template shows using the tiara as a front piece only, but for mine
I chose to combine two of them together so that it fits more like a crown.
The front was embellished with some handmade crepe paper ruffle,
some of the Sugar Shoppe stickers and of course, some jewels!

Above, you can see that I also covered the inside but only after
I adhered a pom pom trim around the top edge.

After punching two small holes (at each side), I inserted medium-sized brads
to hold together.  You will want to make adjustments according to the size crown that's needed.

 And every party needs party favors!  With a few paper punches, die-cut shapes and sequins
you can send your guests home with a very original treat.

Ice cream soda?  Fill a glass jar with colorful straws and then embellish the outside
with bands of fun washi tapes!  I love that the tape can be removed and then the jar
can be used again for a different theme.

Finally, here's a look at my Sugar Shoppe party scene...now all I need are the guests!
