Dazzling Diamonds...and other dew drops...


Dew drops from The Robin's Nest are fun embellishments for your cards.
You can add color and texture and dimension!



First, I chose a simple shape and cut it out using a Sizzix die.  
Using Scraperfect's Best Glue Ever, I glued on different dew drop shapes 
in order to create a mosaic look for the front of my card!

Classified paper from The Robin's Nest makes a nice mat for the plain white card stock.

This month, the RN designers have linked up with Timeless Twine.


There are so many interesting ways to use twine. 
Wrap it around a panel...
or create a tail for a star!

Timeless Twine has yards of great colors to choose from!


Here I used Sorbet papers that have streaks of glitter.  
After adding my diamond dew drops, I stickle-fied the rest of the white card stock.
Not only does this help promote the "glitter look" of the card, it also covers up any glue smears. 
(Shhhhh! Secret!!)

Remember...Diamond Shaped Dew Drops are 20% off during the month of June.
Be sure to pick up a variety of shapes and colors!

Thanks for checking out diamond dew drops today!
