TGIF Everyone! Hope wherever you are you are having a joyous April spring Friday. I am going shabby chic tonight using the colors from CR84FN and the Sweet Sunday Sketch #156 at The Sweetest Thing.
I also tried a new flower tutorial, the Tattered Flower at The Artsiders. I must say, Paul's on the tutorial looks better than mine. I used patterned paper for mine and scrunched it up a bit more than he did. I also sprayed Pearl Glimmer Mist on it. Maybe I need to learn to tear paper better! LOL
I loved this silhouette stamp from Jenni Bowlin Studio. It's just so whimsical! And this birthday sentiment from Fiskars went perfect with it. All the patterned paper I used is Lost & Found from My Mind's Eye. Such adorable shabby chic patterns. I had a hard time deciding which ones to put together. I 'holed' the banner strips too for a more shabby look. I was too impatient and/or lazy to thread my sewing machine today.
SPIES:
Stamp: Silhouette (Jenni Bowlin); sentiment (Fiskars).
Paper: Tan and cream cardstock; DP - Lost & Found (My Mind's Eye).
Ink: Staz On Jet Black
Extras: Damask emboss folder (Cuttlebug); fancy label die(Sizzix Framelits); scallop border punch (Taylored Expressions); leaf die (Taylored Expressions); hole maker; clear gems; cream floss, cream satin ribbon.
CHALLENGES:
The hubs is working the next five days and so hopefully I will get to craft and post more cards and some other crafts I am working on. Until then...
Happy Weekend!
