Default WT204 - Embellishment Pile-up

I love embellishments! I love combining them! They always look fabulous layered instead of sprinkled all over the page, a single wonderful focal point. Today I thought it would be a fun challenge to find Ways to Layer Your Embellishments. Some ideas? Layer paint and rub-ons onto chipboard, layer charms over flowers and ribbon, layer rhinestones onto acrylic pieces. Let your imagination soar and get creative. Have fun with it! And yes...I know some of you have a hard time parting with those goodies! Trust me...they aren't doing you any good locked away! I know! I'm finally using some of my treasured pretties and I'm wondering why I hoarded for so long.

Please remember to put WT204 in your keywords section and post a link back here. We all want to see what you've created! Please create NEW designs for this challenge.

My Sample: Faith

WT204 Gallery Submissions

Happy creating and have a fabulous day!

Julia

Layering embellishments? It will be challenging to let go of the beauties, but I'm game.

Thanks for posting early so that I could play before work. Loved this challenge because it forced me to give up some of my embellishments that are stockpiled in a nearby drawer. Here's my card:

Not at all what I was planning.
I really liked your idea of using rub-ons on chipboard. I've only done it once before.
But somehow it turned into this, not a rub-on in sight.
