It is readily available in my favorite flavor...non-fat, sugar free, and easy on the hips and eyes....so many reasons I love glitter...it's always just the right way to top off a paper treat...it makes my mouth water in a crazy, artsy girl sort of way...I openly admit to my healthy obsession.
I won't live without it...
I'm kind of super crazy for this stamp set too...Friendship Jar and Fillers by Papertrey Ink. And...see, that bitty, tea-stained, irresistibly sweet tag...you can find some HERE for yourself. Must haves around my house.
I also used the Background Basics: Text Style stamp set, Spring Moss and Vintage Cream cardstock, the Jar and Lid die, Jar Label die, Jar Toppers die, and the Eyelet Lace Border die with Vintage Cream felt. The paper is from the Melissa Frances Vintage Posey collection....smitten.
I'm catching up here with a couple of projects for I created for the Emma's Paperie blog recently.
The theme this month at Emma's is Wedding...so I pulled many of my favorite things together to create a memory booklet.
Inside pages ready to fill with memories, photos, memorabilia, etc.
A complete supply list can be found HERE.
And, lastly....for a sweet color combo found at Emma's Paperie....
Hope your day was lovely...mine was a warm, soak in the sun, blissful kind of summer day.
Night.

P.S. Have your heard of Olivia Place? It's a new venture in conjunction with some wonderful creative souls at Maya Road...Daily deals for moms and more.
Beautiful, such beautiful cards!
Quick question: how do you affix the said glitter? I always end up with it all over my fingers and table but not much actually on the project!

I am so glad I am not the only one who loves glitter. The other day I knocked a jar of glitter off the top shelf in my studio. It made me happy to see the spilled glitter on the floor. I loved the way it sparkeled in the sunlight streaming through the window. Glitter always makes me smile...even when it is a mishap that I will have to eventually clean up. (The glitter is still on the floor and still makes me smile when I see it:)

Oh, your card with the jar is so sweet - I knew you would create lovelies with that set & accessories. Your Emma's Paperie projects are pretty, pretty, pretty. Thanks & have a wonderful weekend.

Absolutely beautiful! My son is getting married next weekend, and I would love to make this memory booklet for them. Love that glitter too. I ordered a cake for the rehearsal dinner and told her to sprinkle lots of glitter (edible) on it! She called it angel dust.
