Default Embellishment Ideas

I spent a little bit of time making a list of embellishments that I might use on my cards. I would look at a card knowing it needs something more...then start poking around in my room or head to the internet to find an idea of something to use, which sometimes took quite awhile so I thought a reference list my help out. Then, I thought I would share it with you all in case you have the same problem as me. It is in PDF so you can edit it for your own use. I just did alphabetical for ease. I wanted it to fit on one page so left some things out like Washi tape which I don't use.

Hope it helps someone out there.
Happy Card Making!

Barb

Is it possible to get your wonderful file in Word or Excel so I can edit it? PDF is not an editable file. You have lots of embellishments that I don't have. This is a great tool! Thanks for sharing.

Thanks, Barb! This worked great! Now I can add or subtract items as I see I have them or not. This will be a great resource. I have so many embellishments on hand and never think to use anything except pearls or stones.

Thank you Sylvia! I was getting into a rut using the same stuff a lot too.
I was hoping someone else could make use of it. I didn't include things I might use on Christmas, Easter, wedding, baby, shower cards etc. as I don't do those very often and I wanted one page for now. I plan on making another page for those and other events. I stuck it in a plastic page protector and hung it where I work so I can grab it quick. It is proving useful.
If anyone thinks of something interesting I missed please share it with us.

Bensarmom, thank you for converting it for me. I didn't even know what Excel was. I use an old Mac and know very limited computer stuff. I'm always asking my husband to help me. I have a bell I use to summon him when I need tech help, and he comes running....talk about Pavlov's Dog! LOL! He's a sweetie!
