What’s your word for 2015?

Published on January 21, 2015 by Taniesa10 Comments

Hi Crafty Friends,

Designer, Treasa, is up on the blog today sharing how she is incorporating her one little word into her project life album. Take a look!

Hi there, today I wanted to share my word that I had chosen for this new year. This year I chose the word simplify. I chose this word for numerous reasons but most of all to just make my life easier. I always like to document my word for the year in my first page in my PL album. This year I wanted to really have my word stand out and make it special, so I added some custom flair badges from The Crafty Pickle. I even designed the simplify badge and Taniesa was awesome to create it for me. And I have to say I love how it turned out. Below are the two cards I created to spotlight my word Simplify for the year 2015. With the first card I added the Simplify flair badge and wanted that to be the focal point of the card. In the second card I added the 2015 flair badge to emphasize the year, then I added my journaling on why I chose my word.

So whats your word for the year 2015? I would love to hear how you came to choose your word and how you plan on documenting it. How would you like to win your own word flair badge along with a 2015 flair badge. All you need to do is leave me a comment on my blog HERE by Saturday Jan 25th at 10:00 pm. I will then draw a winner on Sunday Jan 26th. Also during this time, Taniesa is offering 15% off purchase of $10 or more using coupon code TCP2015 now through Sunday! Good luck and I can’t wait to hear your 2015 word.

Until next time,

Thank you Treasa, I love your PL cards!!

Happy Crafting!

Hi Crafty Friends.

Today we have an adorable layout from designer, Cathy Martin! She shows how you can take a seasonal flair piece and make it work for everyday embellishing. Take a look!

It’s time for my first layout for the new year for The Crafty Pickle! Taniesa has been working overtime getting lots of new fun flairs and other items ready for her shop. I am loving the sequins that she’s offering now! Be sure to pop on over to her Etsy shop and take a look!

For my layout today I used two flair badges from her Autumn collection. I love the versatility of these badges, and how cute is that fox!

And here is my layout! I was inspired from a layout by Martha Bonneau at Cocoa Daisy

Thanks so much for stopping by today, have a crafty day!

Adorable! Love all of the detail. Thank you so much for sharing, Cathy!

Have you seen the new sequins in our shop?? We have an adorable Valentine mix as well as two other must have limited edition mixes! Check them out HERE.

Snow…. in California?

Published on January 5, 2015January 5, 2015 by Taniesa2 Comments

Hi Crafty Friends!

Happy New Year! I hope the holidays treated you well and that you’re off to a great 2015! Today, designer Carrie has a great first layout of 2015 showing her home in california covered in snow! It doesn’t happen often so this was a nice surprise! Check it out!

Happy New Year. I can hardly believe it’s 2015.

Today I am sharing my first winter layout. This page will actually be at the end of my 2014 family album. We had a rare snow fall where I live in Murrieta California. It has not snowed here in ten years, and even then it was just a dusting. We actually got about a foot of snow that lasted several days.

For this page I used a ton of beautiful shiny sequins from TheCraftyPicklethey came in the Winter Mix pack. Can I just tell you that I am a bit obsessed with sequins right now. They are such an easy embellishment and very reasonably priced. Easy to apply with a bit of liquid glue or mini glue dots.


Here is a closer look at some cards I created by embossing some snowflakes onto vellum and then adding a bit of shimmer watercolors. I of course added some sequins to embellish these cards too.

When you order flair from Taniesa your flair is packaged with sequins/confetti in a glassine bag.

Its like a little party when you open the cute little package. I use these sequins all the time, they are the perfect accent to any project.

This glitter flair is perfect on my pages, adds that special touch I like to set the feeling I want to document.

Of course I had to add one of my new blue color pop flairs to this card. It matches my sequins too.

Thanks for stopping by today.
Happy Scrappin in the New Year

Carrie

Thanks Carrie! I LOVE your layout and I am a wee bit Jealous of your snow (we didn’t get any snow in my part of California).

A big thank you to all of my readers. You have made my journey with my blog and the growth of my business(s) so fun and so worthwhile for me. I appreciate each and every one of you!

Happy Crafting!

Sketches and Sequins with Stephanie!

Published on December 30, 2014December 30, 2014 by Taniesa5 Comments

Hi Everyone!

Ever get in a creative slump? Designer, Stephanie, took a sketch and made it her own with accents of TheCraftyPickle sequins and some flair. Check it out!

Hey y’all! I hope this day is treating you well! We are fighting off colds around here & trying to get healthy for the New Year!

I have a post to share today featuring flair & sequins from The Crafty Pickle. I made a layout using this sketch from Stuck?! Sketches:

Here is my page:

I started by stamping the circles on my cardstock. I then added strips of paper from my stash. I love, love, love using up scraps!!

The black & white striped paper is from Glitz & the multi-colored snowflake paper is from Imaginisce. The stars are from Pink Paislee & the journal card is from Pretty Little Studio.

Here is a closer look at the red & white flair button from TCP. I love how festive it is! I also love how well it matches the paper here from Elle’s Studio. You can get a good look at the Christmas sequins mix here too.

The crown is from Um Wow Studios & I misted it red then added some coarse glitter.

This arrow flair button is glittery & the perfect accent to my Christmas page!

There’s more of the yummy Christmas sequins & the ornament die cut is from Pink Paislee. My alphas are from Fancy Pants.

Thanks so much for stopping by! I hope you have a crafty day!

Thanks Stephanie! I LOVE your layout!!!

Happy Crafting!

Hey Crafty Friends!

Designer, Cathy, is up with an adorable holiday layout! Check it out

Hey everyone it’s Cathy here with another post for The Crafty Pickle. I wanted to use some of the wonderful December/Christmas flair badges and sequins and I thought what better way to use the lovely candy striped badges then to showcase them on a layout about my daughter getting candy canes stuck in her hair. I apologize that the photos aren’t at their normal quality, I ended up having to take them with my phone instead of my usual Canon camera.

I adore how she used the flair and sequins, all the clusters and layering are perfect.

Thanks Cathy!

I hope you all have a very Merry week!!!

December Days Mini Album with Carrie!

Published on December 16, 2014December 16, 2014 by Taniesa1 Comment

Hi Crafty Friends!
Today, designer Carrie Bryant, is showing off her December mini album. Totally adorable! Check it out!

Today I am going to share with you the start of my December Days album. This year I have decided to document December Weekly instead of daily. I am a bit behind…. go figure.

This is my album cover. I covered a 6×8 Snap binder from Simple Stories
with some paper from Heidi Swapp’s Believe collection. I love this
paper line, I bought a lot of it last year so I chose to use it for most
of this album. I also sprayed a Heidi wood veneer word “together” with
some gold Color Shine.

Using my custom flair from TheCraftyPickle really helps to make this a special keepsake.

Week 1 – My husband Bill and I spent a 4 day weekend in
NYC. We had a wonderful time, just the two of us. The city really was
all dressed up for Christmas. To document each Week, again I used some custom CraftyPickle flair. I also used the great Arrow set and some Holiday sequins to embellish my pages.

Week 2 – We went to Wickerd Farms to pick a fresh Christmas Tree. More pages to follow soon….

I really love that Taniesa will create any design just for You!

Thanks for stopping by today.

Merry Christmas to you and yours.

Happy Scrappin’

Carrie

I love everything about this, Carrie!!! Thanks so much for sharing with us!

Happy Crafting!

Merry and Bright by Stephanie

Published on December 15, 2014December 15, 2014 by Taniesa1 Comment

Hi Crafty Friends!

Designer, Stephanie, is on the blog today with her christmas layout using the Merry and Bright flair as well as the winter sequins mix! Too cute… and will you look at that santa photo, totally ADORABLE!

I love looking back on pictures from Christmases past and my project today shares a photo of the kids with Santa in 2009. They were just babies!! And this is my favorite picture with Santa, ever!

I have used the Winter Sequins Mix from The Crafty pickle, along with their Merry & Bright flair button from the December set. These are the perfect compliment to any layout, be it Christmas-themed or not!

I punched the snowflakes with my Martha Stewart punch & the deer head is a new punch from EK Success. The black paper & the “Enjoy every day” journal card are from 7Dots Studio.
