New Product Spotlight: BLING IT & OPALINES!   (1 comment, 441 views) Monday, 08 June 2009

Hello, everyone!

In our blog post today we wanted to put the spotlight on two of our favorite new products – BLING IT™ and OPALINES™! We love these products so much that we came up with a list of our ten most favorite ways to use them. So without further ado, presenting:

The Top TEN ways WE like to use BLING IT™ or OPALINES™:

10. Use them on alphabet stickers!



9. Use them on rub-ons!

(The above samples by BasicGrey staff designer Kelly Goree featuring Lemonade™ - a new line coming SOON to Scrapbook.com! Be watching!)


8. Use them on chipboard!



7. Use them as flower centers - either a single stone/pearl or clustered together for another fun look!

The above sample is by Kelly Goree, featuring Opalines (in the flower centers) and Wisteria™.



6. Use them as accents to your journaling between words, at the end of sentences or to “quote” a phrase!



5. Use them as a border!



4. Use them in a line as a “leader” to direct the viewer's line of site to something you want to focus on!

Check out this gorgeous example by Moon Ko featuring Offbeat™.  Here Moon used brads to create a wonderful visual line across her page, but you could create your own fantastic look with Bling It™ or Opalines™!



3. Use them as bullet points!



2. Use them on stamped images!



1. Use them to create journaling lines!

 


And we love them so much, we had to give you just one more:


Bonus: Use them in a shape to accent a title or other element!

Here, Kelly Goree used multi-colored brads (and lots of them!) in her fun Lime Rickey™ layout to accent her title with a circle, but again, using Bling It™ or Opalines™ would create another amazing look!


And we saved the best for last – these awesome products are available right here at the Scrapbook.com Superstore and for only $1.80 an item, you can buy colors and designs to your heart’s content! So go forth and BLING IT up and decorate with OPALINES – we can’t wait to see what you do!


Happy Scrappin’,


BasicGrey
