    My go to embellishments are enamel dots but I also use gems, pearls and sequins. I have a few bottles of Nuvo drops but I hardly ever use them because I don’t like waiting for them to dry! And I always forget about my Stickles. Happy holidays to you and your family from Alberta! 🎄

  • @olivia8979
    @olivia8979 Рік тому

    My humble opinon on the rule of 3s or odd numbers... I think if you want it to look random and/or scattered that makes sense. but if you are doing a more symmetrical card, it can sometimes look better with even numbers.
    I have quite a lot of embellishments in my craftroom, but the don;t actually get out all that much. I am not sure why. Maybe it is because everytime I go to use them I feel like I am reinventing the wheel on the placement. So I'll work on having some go-to placements for them.

    • @ardyth
      @ardyth  Рік тому

      Haha! I was just thinking that exact thing about symmetry and how I missed saying anything about it. Thanks for the tip. And yes, I definitely find my 3-below-2-above works in many situations! Thanks for watching!

    @olivemaycards Рік тому +4

    I often don’t embellish because I create cards that are bold or busy enough that I can’t find any space! But sometimes I’m just afraid of ruining the card or I forget until I take a photo and notice the card looks unfinished. Taking a photo of different placement seems to help. I find buying embellishments overwhelming, and many are too big or thick for cards. I have tried making my own tiny dots with Nuvo drops though - you can make them on waxed paper or silicone in advance so they are more like enamel dots.
