July Progressive Challenge Step 4

[traveler]

This is the final step of the progressive challenge. You must have completed step 3 before proceeding to this step. 

For this step, you will add exactly 15 embellishments to your page according to the following rules:

• At least 2 of your embellishments must be home-made
  
• You must use at least 5 different types of embellishments 
  

Types of embellishments are things like stickers, die-cuts, ephemera, enamel dots, chipboard, etc.
For example, 3 enamel dots will count as 3 of your 15 embellishments, but only 1 of your 5 types
I'm flexible as to what you consider a home-made embellishment
Your 2 home-made embellishments can be the same as each other or different

For my example, I used the following 15 embellishments:

1. wineglass in lower left (home-made die-cut)
   
2. other wineglass in lower-left (home-made die-cut)
   
3. word sticker ("life is good")
   
4. orange flower (laser cut)
   
5. yellow flower (laser cut)
   
6. pink flower (laser cut)
   
7. chipboard circle (with heart in the middle)
   
8. puffy sticker green heart on corner of journaling
   
9. purple chipboard heart (lower right)
   
10. lavender acetate leaves (upper left)
    
11. lavender acetate leaves (under journaling)
    
12. grapes (home-made die-cut)
    
13. Halloween droplet (brown drops that look like enamel dots)
    
14. Halloween droplet
    
15. Halloween droplet
    

Types of embellishments: die-cuts, sticker, laser cut ephemera, chipboard, puffy sticker, acetate, droplets (I have 7, the minimum is 5)


Rules:

• Add 15 embellishments to your layout according to the rules above
  
• Do not add anything else
  
• Upload an image of your layout to the gallery here at ACOT and post the image in this post
  
• List the 15 embellishments like I did in the example, specifying which are home-made
  
• list your types of embellishments which must be at least 5
  
• If you have any questions, ask
  
• You may combine the completed layout from this step with one other challenge that allows it plus all of the ongoing challenges such as the team and bi-monthly.
  
• This is due July 31 at midnight EDT
  
• You must complete step 4 to be eligible for a prize
  

If you made it this far, thanks for playing along and I hope you're having fun!

Question; May we do splatters as a finishing touch, and would it count as an embellishment?

No. Splatters could have been done in step 1, but not now

Question: is fussy cutting for example, a flower from patterned paper, considered homemade or an embellishment not homemade since it was printed?

I LOVE your layout - your examples of embellishments are fantastic!

Question:  on my die cut birds, I put rhinestones or black gems in their eyes.  I don't know if it counts as two embellishments, or if they are part of my handmade embellishments?

Louise, I made banner.

It's 3 different categories,- brads, twine and ribbon. For embellishments I would count it as 3 items, 2 brads and 1 banner. Is it correct?
