And if you follow my blog regularly then you will know exactly what I mean.
Just the tiniest bit of a pearl or gemstone really can make all the difference to a finished card.
I always use the self adhesive gems from Want2Scrap and I have added some into this months Give Away ... so click the link to add your name for the chance to win.
It can be cut up to be placed strategically on the design ... and the pearls in the photo use just a very small amount from one piece.
But what happens if you can only buy pearls/gems, in your part of the world, that need to be stuck on by yourself.
And what happens if you can't get the swirly pattern to look good.
The simple answer is to buy a template.... and read about ... Adding Gemstones
That way you will get a really even distribution of the pearls over your design, and it will look beautiful when you have finished.
This weekend has a Craft Show for us to visit. It takes place at the Event City in Manchester and guess who will be there with money in her hot little hand ready to buy some goodies..... yep ME !!!
I have my list already made out, and my pennies all saved, and I will be prowling around with my "Film Crew" on Saturday 9th Feb ( Sorry "Film Crew" just changed it to Friday 8th February)
So if you are there look for the man with the "Card Making Magic Film Crew" hat on and please say Hello... It will be lovely to meet you and ... I may have some goodies for you if you do.
