Well my favorite SU! isn't just one... it's the embellishments! I love creating 3D projects and the flexibility that the new line of embellishments in the Spring 2013 Catalog provide are phenomenal!! My daughter and I are enjoying crafting together lately and she is really into peace signs and bottlecap necklaces. So...as you could imagine I was soooo excited to see the Soda Pop Tops (129388) offered in the Spring Catalog. These and some jewelry cord or chain make some great little necklaces that are oh so popular right now. We chose a magnetic charm to add on our cording so my daughter can interchange different soda tops that we create.
I also used the Itty Bitties (128939) stamp set for the peace sign and the small circle punch from the Itty Bitty Shapes Punch Pack (118309) to punch out the little peace sign image. The Soda Pop Tops are awesome! You can fill them with so many wonderful little items. Punch stamp sets, use rhinestone or pearl embellishments or even the Vintage Faceted Designer Buttons (127555) as shown on my "Flower" Soda Top with a 1 and 3/4" Scallop Circle Punch (119854).
Another wonderful discovery was that not only did the Soda Pop Tops work as pendants for our necklace, so did the Designer Builder Brads (129329)! Again, I stamped the peace sign image using the In Color Markers Assortment (126856) in the colors Midnight Muse, Raspberry Ripple, and Summer Starfruit. Also notice that I used the the epoxy bubble on the brad AND on the mini Soda Pop Top... another great discovery and something that is used very frequently in pop top caps.
I could go on and on about these great little embellies from the Spring Catalog...in fact...I do have more, but you'll have to wait until tomorrow to see the rest. As you can see, I'm all for the versatility that the embellishments, Itty Bitties stamps, and the punches provide! So fun!!
