Hi guys, so I got a new boy’s collection from Carta Bella and it’s called Boy Oh Boy and of course it comes with no embellishments except one sheet of stickers. So I sat down this morning and made my own. I used my dies, punches, buttons, stamps, enamel dots and wood veneer.
This first photo shows speech bubble wood veneer, all I did was get some of my stamps out and some black staz-on ink and stamp sayings onto them. I stamped both sides so that I could use them on either side of the page/photo. This was so simple…I’m going to do the same thing with my wood veneer banners when I get some more colors of staz-on.
This next photo is of the paper embellishments I made. If you would like to see a step by step tutorial on how to make any of these, let me know. I can do a blog post and/or video showing how I make them if you’d like.
I hope you are all having a good week. Things here are okay, just missing my best friend, Elisha so much I can’t stand it. I’ll be back soon with more projects, I’m crafting like it’s therapy lately!

Great embellishments! Did you make those tiny folded paper rosettes yourself? I’ve made ones that small before and they are pretty tricky!!
Kat says
Hi Ashley, I actually used this die to make the rosettes.

You did a fantastic job creating all these embellies. They will be so fun to use too. Awesome!
