Some Favorite Charms...


Hi, it's Diane today with some soft and pretty cards to share with you. I thought I'd highlight a few of my favorite items for you today.


Some of the first Creative Charms items that I ever used were these 3D Sparkly Garden Brads with the tiny butterfly brads and floral gems.  They are a "go to" item when I need a bit of sparkle or whimsy on a project.


The Flared Flowers are another favorite - the iridescent centers add so much sparkle and always make me smile!  This card is a "just because" card and would be nice to send to a crafting friend.


Did you know that the Vintage Poppies come in fourteen different colors?  


They arrive with a pearl brad in the center but I often switch these out and substitute a Vintage Jewel Brad or a Gradient Gem Brad if I want to add more color and sparkle. 


The Gradient Gem Stickers are always useful as accents or to replace the missing dots for your "i"s if you use a small die cut sentiment - I don't know about you but those dots seem to have a way of escaping from me!

If you'd like any more details about these cards, you can find them on my personal blog, Capadia Designs.
