Exciting news to share!

Hi, Friends!

I am so excited to share a new adventure I'm starting - I have decided to join Paparazzi Accessories as an Independent Consultant! 

For those of you who have never heard of Paparazzi here's the scoop.  They are a company based in UT that makes jewelry (necklaces, bracelets, earrings) and hair accessories (clips and headbands) that are ALL $5 +tax!  A friend of my from high school became a consultant and I bought a few items from her, which turned into a few more and a few more.  At that point I figured that I should probably sell it!  :)

I will be having FB parties every week and doing local home parties.  FB parties are so easy - all you do is add your friends to the party group and earn free pieces! If anyone is interested in hosting a party, you can email me for more info - Fabulousfivedollarjewelry@gmail.com. 

You can also shop my online Paparazzi store ANYTIME and have it shipped directly to you.  Here is the store link - https://paparazziaccessories.com/50706/.  Shipping is a flat rate of $5.95, unless you by $100 or more, then it's FREE.  :)

Paparazzi changes their inventory quickly so there is always new pieces to see - but that also means your favorites might sell out, so if you LOVE it - buy it now.  I learned the hard way - there are at least 4-5 pieces that I went back to buy and they were gone. :(

Here are a few of my favorite current pieces -

 

 

Did I mention that all the necklaces come with matching earrings?  See the circle inserts in the necklace photos above! 

If you would like to see my current inventory (I do have a few pieces that are no longer available on-line) I am having a FB Launch party today (7/16) through tomorrow afternoon - like my FB page - Melanie's Fabulous Five Dollar Jewelry -  and ask to be added to the Party group and I will add you in.

Please let me know if you have any questions.  Have a wonderful day!

Sparkly Birthday Wishes!

Happy Sunday everyone! :)

I made a new birthday card for my super cute 6 year old niece this weekend and I was absolutely thrilled with how it turned out! 

Isn't it the cutest?!  Since Scrappy Moms is winding down I have had a little more time to play with different mediums and I re-visited colored pencils blended with baby oil.  I did a quick tutorial on this technique a while ago - if you would like to see it click HERE. 

 

I found this adorable coloring page on the internet and resized it in Photoshop.  I colored her lightly for an ethereal look and then cut her out.  I used 2 of my favorite cloud punches and pop-doted my little unicorn.  The rainbow was printed directly onto the card base.  A cute stamp from SMS Tiny Treasures stamp set (retired) and a few gems complete the look.  

As it turned out it was perfect - her cake was a rainbow with My Little Pony Unicorn figurines on it!  :)

I hope you enjoyed my card and that you will stop by to see my other projects.

Miss Kate Cuttable DT Day!

Hi, everyone!  Thank you for stopping by to see my project for the Miss Kate Cuttables DT!

I made this card for my nephew's 10th birthday...

I use the Surboards file to create my card. 

 

I stretched the sand piece so that it would cover the entire top layer.  I also used pop-dots on the sand layer to give it some dimension.  I really love how it turned out and I hope he will too!

Thank you for stopping by - please come back and visit soon.  :)
