Bracelet Bling (The Buckle Boutique)

Today I am featured at The Buckle Boutique!  I made a pretty cuff bracelet using rhinestone sticker sheets!!
I purchased this Fashion Cuff Sizzix die from Modern Surrealist (Marisa Pawelko).  This makes a great cuff bracelet!  You can find this die HERE.

I used the die in my Cuttlebug.  You can use this in a Sizzix Big Shot or other die cut machines that have openings for big dies. 
Cut a piece of rhinestone sticker sheet just a bit larger than the die.  Place the sticker sheet rhinestone side up for easier cutting. 
Crank the handle of the Cuttlebug to cut through the rhinestone sticker sheet.  Repeat with a strip of felt. 
You are going to stick the rhinestone sticker sheet to the felt - this is much more comfortable on the skin!! 
I peeled the clear backing off the rhinestone sticker sheet and carefully attached it to the felt. 
Here you can see the felt backing. 
I laced some skinny ribbon through the holes. 
Here is the back. 
I tied the ribbons into a bow. 
I tried another cuff using Stretch Magic elastic bead cording.  I had to glue the knot so it would not come undone.  I used Beacons 527 Multi-Use Glue. 
Here is my lovely model wearing a leopard print cuff! 
The other side shows the knot.  I retied the knot and glued it after this picture as it was a little loose for her! 
I had so much fun with these cuffs and can't wait to explore other options for this die cut.

Thanks for joining me today!!!
