AWESOME challenge, woodysbetty! I resisted the sequin craze for a long time, but I have now started to collect them. And even with my tiny collection I know I will need help using them up: there are a LOT of sequins in one of those little bottles or bags! |

I have no sequins. However if I find one that fell off a shirt or something I will put it in the center of a flower or something.

I resisted sequins for a long time. Even when I bought a multipack.
But I am totally in love with them now!

There ARE a LOT of sequins in a pack- I only have some of the 'craft-type' ones from Michael's, and unless I 'accidentally' spill at least 75% of them into the wastebasket, I will NEVER use them up.

Well I spoke too soon! My scrapbook.com box arrived today and I bought a Prima embellishment pack. Low and behold, a packet of sequins! I shall use them in some decorative manner, lol!

Loving all that sequin happiness! Thanks for the idea, woodysbetty, to group them rather than spread them out. I did that on a couple of these cards:  winter window by Gramma Dee, on Flickr |

I used sequins on the card I shared in the Christmas in June thread. They make perfect Christmas tree decorations on a card!

However if I find one that fell off a shirt or something I will put it in the center of a flower or something. no sequins here either - not in my scrapbooking stash, not in my sewing stash, not even in the Girl Scout craft stash...pretty sure we don't even have clothes with sequins on them. |

I got an idea for this LO but I know I saw something somewhere that sparked the idea. I feel like I may be scraplifting someone and I'm not crediting them properly if you know what I mean? I feel like I definitely got the idea from a LO somewhere so I can't take credit for this design, it belongs to someone else. I used Maggi Holmes Flourish cause I wanted flowers to poke under the picture and I knew that bag of stash had lots of flowers in it! Then I bunged some sequins on it too Also claiming for Construction (photo turns), Random Icons (deer), Nuvos, Word Up. 7 points for this one.  |

Sweet LO, indeed! I really need to look for my photo turns. I don't remember mine being this pretty--just kind of a dull metal--but since I haven't really looked at them as a design item, I could be mistaken... |

I wonder how her husband and son feel like being in a girlie layout. She must not have any daughters but loves the girl themed scrapbooking anyway.

grammadee I think those photo turns are dull! I have a few left from American Crafts, they did packets of single bright colours, cool turns and matching brads. They were the best turns. Mum bought me a load she got in NZ and those two are from that bunch, they're quite dull compared to the AC ones. I actually painted some for a recent LO! justjac I am so impressed by your cards! They are amazing, the trees are gorgeous! People will be super lucky to receive one of those!
