Ways to use Chevron Cardstock for your Storybook Page

Have you seen the glitter-ful chevron cardstock? ever thought of how you can incorporate those pretty, bling filled cardstocks into your project life or storybook pages? Well, I love those cardstocks to bits cause they not only come in a myriad of lovely shades but also cause they are so versatile (psstt...I'll let you in on a little secret too..I hoard them..I swear I use every single inch of these pretty things..right to the little-est bit lol)

I love using these cardstocks to create my own embellishments..and with storybook / projject life pages, these are really awesome to use..So without further ado..here's my storybook page..

Some of the uses of the glitter cardstock for my page are as follows:

1) To create my own embellishments from die cuts (the onesie, giraffe, flowers)

2) Background of the cards

* For those of you who don't own a die cut machine, you can use shape punches (but make sure your punches can support the thickness of the cardstock)

Here are some closeups
