Stampin' Up! Pretties Kit - Product Review

Just have to tell you about the Stampin' Up! pretties kit. It comes with so many products in it, perfect for embellishing cards, scrapbooks, or any craft project you make. Here's the details of the kit:

Pretties Kit, item #109114, pg 178 ..... $29.95

Use this versatile kit to embellish all of your works of art! The flowers are white so you can color them to coordinate with our exclusive colors using Stampin' Pastels, Watercolor Wonder Crayons, or Classic ink to dye the flowers. The beads, pearls, and flowers add elegance to any project, and you can create custom hat pins using any of the pieces. Approximate kit quantities: ■ White flowers: 50 (5 sizes, 10 each) ■ Halfback White pearls: 60 (30 small, 20 medium, 10 large) ■ Halfback Cream pearls: 60 (30 small, 20 medium, 10 large) ■ Round White pearls with holes: 45 (30 small, 15 large) ■ Round Cream pearls with holes: 45 (30 small, 15 large) ■ Clear beads: 40 (10 round beads with center hole, 10 round beads with side hole, 20 tear drop beads) ■ Round Rhinestone brads: 50 (20 small, 15 medium, 15 large) ■ Hat pins with clutches: 10 ■ Spacer beads: 30 ■ Packaged in a beautiful keepsake tin

I received this kit about a week ago from Stampin' Up! as a reward for my sales last quarter. I was so excited to get it as it was an item I had not purchased or tried yet. I was amazed at all the items in the kit and the storage container is an added plus as it is reusable.

I have seen the hat pins used as the body for butterflies; the flat back pearls as accents and centers to flowers; and even the white flower dyed using Stampin' Write Markers (look for a tutorial this week on how to do this technique).

This kit will definitely give your projects the WOW factor. Wouldn't the pearls and/or the rhinestone brads be elegant on a wedding card or bridal shower card!!! Any project could easily be dressed up using this.
