Advent Poll : Embellishments

[Theresa]

What sort of embellishments do you like ?

[AJH]

Love brads of all sizes , my favourites are Bazzill , closely followed by American Crafts. Also loved Dooglebug sugared and crushed velvet ones - yum !
LARGE book rings , well any book rings are always really useful . Have lots of chipboard but do really like it .
Stickers - not into cutesy stuff but LOVE alphabet stickers , especially Doodlebug and American Crafts. Talking of alphas I am a big Thickers addict !
Like to use fabric on my projects but dont do it enough ...
Always happy to use a big of bling particularly Papermania / Doodlebug type gems.
Flowers - LOVE Primas Essentials range of flowers , especially the ones with images or text included . Also love the old waffle detail Prima flowers... all Primas actually ... !

[Syl]

I also use shrink plastic to make things with as we are a good hour or more away from a decent craft shop.
Bling, border peel offs, embossing powder, my sizzix and dies, stamps to make embellishments, not a fan of ribbon but I do use it, and fllowers

[CarolynUK]

brads bling blossoms - anything metal really
hate stickers with the exception of alphas.

[chalestorm]

i love little nic-nacs an odd brad, button, little metal charm.
I love pretty much all kinds but i dont really use eyelets (although i do have an eyelet setter so never say never!)

[{ Emma }]

I love chipboard.
I love Prima Flowers and those that are similar to Prima.
I love fabric embellishments and love fat quarters as well actually as I like to make things with fabric.
I like bling but no loose glitter please.
I also like buttons, those pins that are fashionable at the moment, clips (like funky paperclips or mini bull dog clips).

I don't like stickers (unless they are something like doodlebug cardstock alpha stickers) and please don't send me brads or eyelets (I like them but have more than I know what to do with!).

[leeann21]

i adore brads and eyelets :) love naked chipboard and fabric embellies :)

bloosoms and bling are yummy lol

didnt click stickers but i like them as alphas :)

[kimmie_35]

Love Brads, blossoms, bling, alphabet stickers, rub ons... chipboard can be fun! I actually love embellies!!!!
Don't use eyelets much.

[Hollydot]

I love alphabet stickers and have a weakness for Thickers especially glitter ones. Love brads but have loads already, not into eyelets.
Don't really 'do' stickers except for alphas!

[danyaz]

brads, chipboard, any blossoms, eyelets,bling, alphabet stickers.
i ticked stickers but only alphabets, any sort really

[leigh11]

no brads or eyelets--have them coming out of my ears :lol:

love chipboard, bling, blooms, beads, diecuts :D

[biskit]

I voted for Naked chipboard.

Brads or eyelets - I have tons of those. No more needed.
Fibres - I've just RAK'd a load as as much as I like looking at them - I never use them.
Bling - I have a bejeweller and am in need of some 4mm rhinestones - any colour, just building a nice collection.
Stickers - only if they are thickers, or those mini alphabet ones I keep seeing.

[~natasha~]

I chosse brads and beads. I adore beads, seed beads being my fave :wub:

[westiegirl]

love all kinds of embellishments would like more decorative brads got lots of plain colour ones

No eyelets or fibres tho please have too many i dont use much of lol

[new2this]

Like things you can alter .. hence the "other metal" vote ... make my own fabric embellies ... don't need brads or eyelets for digi scrapping but things that can be used in mini books are welcome.

[Anita A]

i like most things although i'm not really into stickers (unless it's an alphabet)

[stillcrafting]

I love:

Brads, eyelets, metal embellies, chipboard of nearly every description, fibres, ribbon, blossoms - not a huge fan of wire stemmed flowers though.

If I had to choose just one embellie, it would be blooms I think as I can't resist them. Spent a fortune on the Green Tara blossoms recently - definately my weakness!

I don't use a lot of bling and the only glitter I use is Stickles.

[Perdita]

Anything goes as far as I'm concerned - apart from flowers / blooms / blossoms - can't bear them, actually same goes for stickers and don't use beads.
I love naked chipboard, quirky alpha rub ons and swirls, like texture - so metals, brad and eyelets are all fun

[kazc]

I use loads of mini-brads in all sorts of colours so they are always useful.

Ribbon, naked chipboard, plain round buttons are handy too.

I've not bought any blossoms for ages :( because I bought a load of Primas when they first came out that I've not used, but they are looking a bit tired and sad now so perhaps some new blossoms would be good.

I've started putting bling on my LOs quite often so something sparkly would be lovely.

[Galadriel*]

I love brads, eyelets and unusual metal embellishments. I'm a bit fussy about stickers but alphabet stickers are always welcome. I don't use much chipboard and hardly ever use fibres or beads. Despite mainly scrapping photos of my boys, I love blossoms (sometimes use them on cards) and bling.

[emily13]

Love blossoms, decorated chipboard, brads and gems. Happy with most anything but would prefer not to get fibres or beads as I have plenty of those at the mo, and I don't really use naked chipboard.

[feline]

I love,love, love BIG paper blossoms, bling (Kaiser) brads the bigger the better, prefer naked chipboard, don't mind stickers as long as they are alphabets or to co-ordinate with a paper range, love rub-ons that rub-on :blink: or die-cuts to match patterned papers iykwim :D

Please, please none of the above in purple...I hate the colour in any shade :wacko: and bear in mind I have two boys....pink is not totally out of the question as I do scrap my girl cat but not mountains of pink :lol:

No eyelets or fibres please.

[Pennyk]

Fabric, chip board, and of course BLING-love it!!! Reading the post below this reminded I also love 7G's anything, swirls and flourishes too

[Hysteri-CAL]

No brads or eyelets - I too have them coming out of my ears :lol:

I like chipboard - but only unusual stuff now as I have heaps. I love rub-on swirls and flourishes, I like alphabet cardstock stickers, buttons (clear preferred), I like the 7 gypsies sticker sheets such as Boy, Friend, Husband, Inspiration etc.... they are soooo useful. Love the diamente swirls and flourishes and any bling ... also like stickles and erm erm ... will come back when i think of the name - d'oh.

[Nellyphant]

Brads - love 'em! Bit of an obsession! Love using metal embellies. Naked chipboard so I can decorate myself. As a sewer fabric embellishments are fab. Bling and blossom - can you have too much?

[clamar]

Anything apart from eyelets beads or diecuts

[Janie]

Like most things! Don't use eyelets of fibres particularly, and I only tend to use stickers if they are Christmas themed. Love making jewellery, so beads would be fab (except seed beads, of which I have a gazillion!!)

[angel_dust]

I'm not keen on fibres. I have far too many eyelets than I will ever use. Sticker wise I love alphabet stickers.

I love chipbaord and bling but DH has banned any more loose glitter in the house (do you know how hard it is to get rid of if it gets spilt by accident)

[Wisher]

love metal, fabric and bling (I like the stick on ones as well as having a bejeweller) please don't send me fibres, brads or eyelets I could keep a whole crop occupied for 10 years without the amount of those I have lol

like others I like unusual chipboard, flourishes/swirls, 7G stuff )partic rub ons

[Jay]

Oh my goodness, love 'em all. I usually put them on my desk and look at them though! I had one metal buckle for a couple of years and I couldn't use it as I then wouldn't have it any more! I had to go out and buy some more so I could use the original.

[scrapper2401]

I really like Metal embellishment, naked chipboard and bling but please don't send any eyelets and brads- I have loads :)

[clairbear101]

I love everything, but not peeloffs please, have far too many already!!

[Woozle]

Brads: Love brads & use a LOT! I especially like the slightly larger than normal ones - the ones about 5-7mm ... but even bigger are good too. I especially like dark colours and dull (not shiny) metallics. I'm not really into a lot of shaped stuff, but do use a few shaped brads :) I would love to try some of the velvet/fabric/glittery/jewel brads! I have lots of ordinary eyelets so unless it's something very very special, no more please!
I prefer naked to decorated chipboard as the decorations never suit what I want to use it for!
I have too many stickers and don't use many, but happy to get a few carefully selected ones, but no peel offs please.
No fibres or beads please - too many of those round here! and I have a Sizzix so no ordinary die cuts - may be persuaded to accept something robo'd or cricutted etc ...
I like blossoms, especially the ones 2"-3" (I have lots of very small ones) - I haven't seen the new Prima blossoms.
I'm learning to like bling, but don't use it much as it's a bit girly for most of what I do! Again, simple & subtle is best. I have glitter & don't use it much so prob wouldn't need more of that.

I like alpha stickers/chipboard alphas - pref black or white or brown & in fairly simple fonts! I have had one set of the foam thickers but not used the vinyl or any of the other materials.

[Silverstar]

LOVE Thickers and any alphabets, chipboard (naked), brads especially the funky new types out there. Just got a Big Bite so don't have many gromlets yet.

[Beautifullily]

Use quite a few journalling blocks, would like more brads, don't use eyelets. Like blossoms, but don't really use too many on my own LOs, more for handmade pressies really. Have a Cricut, so don't need die cuts. Not into metal embellishements or themed stickers. Love using texture - so fabric is good!

[Sonia2007]

voted for most things expecially
brads, eyelets,chipboard - especially like bling- anything sparkly & shiny

[lebosi]

Have voted for most but not really into stickers except small alphabets ~ not peel offs.
I don't use beads and have my own die cutting machine with lots of dies.
Fibres I have a plenty and also a mountain of loose glitters

[sweetpea555]

Well...

I have a lot of eyelets and brads, but i have just brought the big bite so i have no gromlets yet which i am dying to have a go at...

I am into stitching big time so anything that is lace, or embroidary thread etc is very welcomed as i do use a lot lol..... i love alphas aswell...... i dont really like stickers as such and i dont like peel offs at all..... chipboard i welcome no matter really waht as it can all be altered in the end lol....

Leona x

[KatieM]

Love pretty much anything. Not keen on peel-offs though.

Kathryn :)

[danemi1]

I love journalling spots, thickers, brads, jumbo eyelets not the little teeny ones - I love naked chipboard - and a bit of bling although I do have a fair bit already and no glitter please as I have plenty. I dont need any fibres, die cuts or beds as I have plenty but do love flowers esp the primas variety or similar or the large silky flowers and could use some embossing powders to match my distressing inks (tim holtz) - can provide list of whick inks I have

[Wrightboysmum]

Need more eyelets and would like some fibres. Love naked chipboard. Like most embellies to be honest with stickers being my least favs but again if they are the right ones then yes.

[dawnwynne]

I love brads and have quite a few small ones so could use some bigger ones. I also love blossoms and naked chipboard. Not really into fibres or eyelets.

[iana]

i love thickers letters, and Tom Holtz things, i like ribbon, but have TONNES of it, i am a magpie, i love interesting litle things, photo turns, cogs..i like some chipboard, especially interestign shapes..


i dont like fibres, am not good with eyelets, and not keen on nailheads! i dont like stitching either

[lacemaker]

I like alphabet stickers, but not peel offs

[terri_ann87]

Almost anything but I'm not keen on peel offs. Love brads, eyelets, chipboard.

[frizzy]

Love most of these - except peels offs and have plenty of eyelets.

[annieormerod]

BLING BLING BLING :wub:

[leanie]

Brads - love them, especially oversize, tiny, or unusual shapes (letters/swirls, etc)
Eyelets - only have Fiskars spring setters, so can only do aluminium ones
Other metal embellishments - MM plaques, any words, alphabet tiles, memory wire
Naked chipboard - just getting into this and love covering it/inking it - would paint if I had some!
Bling - love self-adhesive pearls, and the square gems, would love something a little bigger - like motifs or something? Not keen on glitter though, two small kids, nuff said!
Blossoms - Only used on one LO so for but have realised that don't have to have a girl to use them - only had paper so far, but different sizes, shapes, colours and textures - wouldn't mind some chipboard ones?

Missed stickers out as not keen on lots of types, but have a couple of thickers and like those so far - like naked and white so I can colour them in xx

[dipurves]

I voted for bling (a girl can't have too much :)), blossoms, metal embellishments, brads and naked chipboard :)

I very rarely use eyelets these days and with having the cricut don't really use alphabet or other stickers :)

[puddlepants]

I love metal, wood, chipboard but hate plastic and detest stickers. I'm also an alterer and would love interesting things to do up myself.

NO fibres please I have tons.

[T_Ann]

Not brads or eyelets please I have thousands. I like anything metal, fibres, naked chipboards, blossoms, fabric shapes etc

[2Angels]

I love brads, blossoms and chipboard, I really don't like eyelets and fibres and for some reason don't much like metal embelishments:blink:. I don't like stickers that much, except for alphabets or rub ons! I have a die cutter and tend to stick mostly to alphabets so don't really like diecuts. I love anything journaling related, diecuts, spots etc:D

[jayne b]

I have voted for everything because I absolutely love any and every sort of embellishment :lol: Especially like brads, wordy/lettered rub-ons, and chipboard anything! I am trying to get into eyelets - have all the setting stuff but not many actual eyelets for some reason :blink:

[Creative Treasures]

I have voted for Bling, Blossoms of any kind, chipboard, i love all of these :)

[nip]

I'm quite into 'Bling' at the moment, but any kind of embellishmenrs are nice.

Nicola

[geckogirl]

Mmm...thought I'd posted on here already but can't see it. I love all embellishments, though not such a preference for stickers, and I don't really need any more beads. Other than that, I'd be quite happy to have all my pressies from this selection. I'd especially love a selection of new brads and/or eyelets to add to my stash. Blossoms are always nice too! Really I'm going to be delighted with all of my scrappy gifts!!!

[Blue Daisy]

Love fabric embellies but not chipboard as already have far too much

[peechy]

my choices:
Brads, Other metal, decorated chipboard, beads, bling, blossoms B)

[bridget.william]

[DebbieB]

I like brads, blossoms, chipboard naked or decorated.

[dizzy]

Um i seam to love all embellishments but have a wide range of buttons that i cnat seam to part with on a page, dont they do some lovely cat ones, so basicall y anything thisng goes apart from maybe fibers as i have three full boxes that i no longer seam to use, that said if there are lovely then thats fine
