Day 1 Glitter and Bling Blog Hop January 21 and 22!!!


Welcome to the Glitter and Bling Blog Hop being sponsored by our great hostess Gill McCall!! If you are just stopping by to see what I'm up to this weekend please go back to Gill's Blog and see what fabulous project she has blinged up for you!! If you arrived from Lisa G then you are in the right spot and I hope you have been inspired!

For those that know me know that I'm not a glittery person or blingy...lol. Maybe it has something to do with having four boys but I thought I would try something different for a change. My friend did my makeup for me last July when my high school class had our 30th class reunion and I thought I would bling those pictures up.




Layout Recipe:
Basic Grey
Bazzill 
ColorBox Chalk
EK Success clear gem stickers 
Recollections Pearl Stickers
Home made glimmer mist
Viva Pearl Pen

Do you like those flowers? They are from a cut file designed by the great artist Penny Duncan!! She has tutorials and free cut files for many different flowers. This is the spiral rose file. It's really hard to see all the bling that I used on this layout. I used my Viva Pen and made swirls down the side of the pages then added rhinestones here and there. The flowers were all made with Bazzill card stock and then more bling added to them. I used my Make the Cut and cut my letters and then added more rhinestones to each letter. 


Well I hope you liked my attempt to Glitter and Bling!! Come back tomorrow and see what else I try to bling up!! Now keep on hopping to the talented Jacki and see what she has in store for you. I'm also offering Blog Candy so don't forget to leave me a comment and if you aren't a follower yet please become one!! Hope you've enjoyed yourself!!

I like what you did. I've seen the double picture in layouts in magazine but have not seen anyone use it before on a hop. I like what I see. TFS Jearise in Lorby's World.
