Cathy Parlitsis created this tag card. Tags are trendy right now and not only are they being used for gifts but even in cards. It’s so fun to see how crafters are taking products that were designed for one purpose and using them in completely different ways.
As you can see, everything you can do with card stock and everyday crafting you can do with Add a Little Dazzle Craft Metal Sheets. The difference is that the metal sheets add some dazzle to your projects. Then, accompanied with a fun die such as the Gift Tag Ellements you have a perfect pair. In this card, Cathy used Wondrous White and Pucker Me Pink Craft Metal Sheet and accompanied with the black it really makes the card pop out beautifully. In addition, Cathy added some of Avery Elle’s Raspberry Grosgrain Ribbon to bring it altogehter.

Martha Lucia created a beautiful Clean and Simple card. She kept the card simple and then drew your eye to the center medallion part which is made out of Add a Little Dazzle Craft Metal Sheets. When attaching metal pieces such as the one shown here, we recommend a different kind of adhesive.

Martha used the Ikat Additions Stamp Set for her card. Then, she created the center piece by die cutting it from Baby Blue Craft Metal Sheet. As you can see, you can go simple and still add a lot of dazzle to a card. This card is simple, yet that small piece of Add a Little Dazzle Metal Sheet just beautifully pops out from the card.
Please make sure to stop by Martha’s blog and show her some love with a comment. This will be your entry for a chance to win a special prize pack.
Vicki Dutcher loves creating holiday cards in non-traditional colors. She does an amazing job of it and knows how to turn them into masterpieces. She loves to think outside-of-the-box.
To create this card Vicki used the Modern Leaves Ellements Die and found a way to use them for a Christmas card. Vicki die cut some leaves from Golden Glimmer Craft Metal Sheet. These leaves added the perfect touch of elegance to this Pucker Me Pink Poinsettia. It is so much fun to see how you can take a die such as this one and use it in such different ways.

Lee Ann Barrett loves adding dimension and interest to her cards. The color combination and textures in her card adds lots of interest to them. She always has the perfect balance.
To create this card Lee Ann used the Simply Said Happy Die in Golden Glimmer Craft Metal Sheets. She added interest to the background with Embossing Paste and Stencils and even added color to the embossing paste. To bring it altogether, Lee Ann used Avery Elle’s Thankful Clear Stamp Set. The colors, textures, and everything about this card just radiates fall and it is perfect for the season.
