...anyone else not really love the look of these? I find that I like how some people use them on pages but they aren't really my thing. |

The only ones that I have liked are the stars. Not a fan of any of the others... |

I love them on my altered art canvases but have yet to put them on my pages.
I do like how others have used them - cool textures! I also like a soft fabric or lacy background, like an embellishment or ribbon with the wood veneer contrasted on top. | |

I like the look, but I haven't purchased any. I don't need another thing to get addicted to! Prima makes some cool ones that are printed, not just plain wood. | |

Oooh, I LOVE them! You can see them on a layout I posted today. There is a close-up photo too. Scroll down below the card.

I'm not a fan yet either.
That is very much how I feel. I saw some at M's yesterday, but I just couldn't picture them on any layouts I have planned.
I did, however, punch out some stars from woodgrain paper recently to fake it. So, if M's would have had stars, I might have felt differently. |

I didn't think I would ever use them but there are some (cameras and houses/buildings)included in an order of scrap goodies I'm hoping will be delivered in few days. I caved, I guess. I just wish there wasn't so many of the same thing in one package. Not sure how often I'll use a camera or house even though there are different styles in a package. |

I recent got the arrows and birds. I like that they go such a long way though a mixed box would be good | |

I like them as something to add a bit of dimension. I struggle with ribbon, I feel like flowers are too girly for my boy pages and though I like buttons I never seem to have the color I want.
The veneers are a nice neutral and they are also so easy to recolor with a variety of mediums.
I get that they aren't for everyone though. | |

I really like them, the stars are my favorite. I think they make a really different type of embellishment.
Identicaltriplets love how you used them, beautiful, I have not seen that brand before.

Can't help you with this one / I don't jump on a ton of trends but apparently I'll buy anything made into a tiny veneer they are my crack and I can't get enough |

I LOVE them! Just wish they would portion out a bigger variety of designs in each pack. In a lifetime I'll never use all the potty people I've acquired! |

Thanks sassyscrapper and Diane. And Diane, the brand (Blue Fern Studios) is not for the wood veneers but for the chipboard. It is beautiful to work with!  |

I was just curious...thanks for the replies! I had been out of the scrapping loop for a few years and am seeing these everywhere. I like to see how others use supplies that I either don't have or am uncertain about. |

I love them. Used one on a layout this morning. arrow
It doesn't show well in the photo, because I colored it the dark blue of the jute to tie it all together, but in person it really shows well, and was just that little touch I wanted.
I got some from Kaisercraft in a kit a few years ago, and loved them then, but couldn't find any more. So glad to see them back! |
