BOO!

Hi Again!

This is my second post for today.  Are you
getting in the mood to make Halloween projects?
I know that I am!  I got out some fun Martha
Stewart Halloween paper and came up with
this card last night.  I fussy cut those little
owls and added tiny gems for their eyes.  Some
gray floss was added from the web for the spider.
Ribbon and button added to finish off the card.
It was just a quick Halloween card made.  I need
to make some September bday cards.  So, off I
go to my craft table!  Take care and enjoy
your weekend!  Hugs!!

Supplies:

Paper:  Martha Stewart
Ribbon, Spider, Floss, Button:  Jo-Ann Fabric
Gems:  Recollections
Chipboard Letters:  American Crafts

So Sweet of You...

Hi Friends!

Happy Friday to you!  I hope all is well in your
world!  It's time again for another Shabby Tea Room
challenge!  Oh, and how sweet it is to be inspired
by this fun inspiration photo with fab color and even
a banner!

Here is the inspiration photo we were to follow...

I did make one attempt to make a rosette.  Nope
I won't show you how I fumbled at that wrinkled
little mess...lol!  Anyways, I need more practice
at it.  So, I looked through my stash and found a
sweet K&Company one already made up...voila!
Just a couple of additions with heart, felt and pearls
and it was done.  It was then placed over a distressed
wooden star.  Also, the background was embossed
and painted lightly with white paint.  A canvas banner
made with felt and pearls.  Beautiful ribbon and
sentiment from Paper Sweeties.  Canvas trim, felt
hearts, and pins added to finish off the card.

Go on over and join in on the fun at The Shabby Tea Room!
Thanks so much for dropping by today!  Take care, hugs!

Hi Again!

I had some fun craft time with this shabby card
last night!  I just love adding little details here
and there with shabby goodies!  This card is for
the challenge over at The Shabby Tea Room.
And, here is the gorgeous inspiration photo...

I made this card for a niece who has a birthday in
October.  Whew, that is next month.  I can't believe
that it's September already!  Anyways, I got out
a Melissa Frances vintage frame for the focal point.
I applied gold embossing powder around the frame, die,
and chair.  The little chair is in the lower right corner.
I love crocheted doilies, so I placed one behind the die.
A piece of it behind the frame, also.  Liquid pearls
were placed on the die and a tiny dot for the bird's eye.
Some beautiful ribbon from Paper Sweeties.  Little
felt hearts, pearls, and gems to "pretty" up my shabby
card.  I finished by distressing the edges of the card
with tea dye ink.

Ok, I must run for now since the first Ohio State
football game of the season is on.  My husband has
been counting the days for this day to come!  I'll go
and watch a little with him.  I might sneak off to my
craft room again during half time!:-)  Thanks for
visiting here today!  Take care, hugs!

Hi there!

How are things with you?  I hope you are
having a fantastic weekend!  I have a little
Halloween craft project to share with you today.
Can you believe this is a little recycled dobie
box?  My husband was ready to throw it away.
I said, "Wait, I think I might have an idea for
that little box!"  I have boxes I save from
working at the hospital, which are bandaid and
gauze boxes, etc.  And, I really don't have the
room to save all these things, lol.  Are you that
way, too?  Anyways, most of the products used
on this project are Martha Stewart.  The stamp
is from Studio G.  The border punch is Fiskars.
The rest of the items were in my stash.  Here is
a photo of the dobie box before I altered it....

 

 

Ok, that's it for now.  Please stay tuned for I

have a girly frilly card to share that I made last night.

Thanks for dropping by!  Take care, hugs!
