The Easter Blossoms tutorial is finally finish. Here it is!
Happy Wednesday, everyone! Here is a masculine card I made using the Winds Of Grace stamp set which is retired. I love light houses and try to get every light house set that Stampin'Up! sells. There was one set I really like and never got it. I felt really bad I couldn't get that set and now I can't remember what it is called anymore.
Happy Monday! What a beautiful sunny day here in Vancouver. Spring is so pretty with all the blossoms growing everywhere. God is so good to bless us with this wonderful day.
Happy Friday! Gloomy but a good day for me. I get to be by myself today and get to craft all day if I want. Kids are at my sisters' and the are so happy they get to sleep over at their cousins' house.
Happy Monday everyone! Today is a very wet day. I'm glad I'm a SAHM. Don't have to go out to work in this rainy day. All cozy inside and do some crafting.
Hello, everyone! Here are some tins that I altered using the Sweet Stitches Designer Series Paper and Sew Suite stamp set. I got these tins from my brother a few years ago and kept them to be use someday. They were filled with gum and they tasted awful and sticks to your teeth. Well, I finally altered them. They are so cute! These are perfect as gifts to people who likes to sew. They can carry it around in their purse to use when needed.
I was able to fit a pair of folded scissors, two rolls of threads, some buttons, two needles, and some snaps. I punched a piece of Rose Red card stock with a Modern Label punch and put two needles on it. After I did the Modern Label piece I realized that I should have made the needle holder in felt. Felt lasts longer than paper.
Hello, everyone! Good day!
Here is a card I made using the Bliss SAB stamp set. Love this set and it is FREE with every $60 you spend. Don't you just love FREE stuff? I sure do! Let me know if you need a SAB brochure and I'll send one to you or you can visit here to see it.
Here is a composition book I altered for a friend. Now I just have to mail it to her. She reads my blog so I'm not going to say who it is for.
I don't know her favourite colour so I hope she likes pink.
I put a rosette flower in the middle of the chocolate chip ribbon. The rest of the flowers I added half pearls to them. Love those half pearls.
You'll need a needle, thread and 7" length of ribbon of your choice. I used 5/8"wide satin ribbon.
Make a knot at the end of the thread and sew in from 1/4" of the end of the ribbon as shown above.
Make a running stitch along the edge of the ribbon. I did about 1/8" apart but you can make a wider stitches.
When you stitch to the end of the ribbon, pull the thread and gather the ribbon as shown above. The ribbon will curl when you gather the ribbon.
Put the 2 ends of the ribbon together as shown above.
Stitch the ends together as shown above. Tie a knot to finish the ribbon flower.
Here are different ribbon flowers I made using different kinds of ribbon. I used the Crumb Cake taffeta ribbon, the Pretty in Pink satin ribbon and the Chocolate Chip grosgrain ribbon. The satin ribbon is the hardest to work with cause it is slippery.
Hello everyone! Hope you are having a good start to the week. Here is another project from the Vancouver Regional make n' take using the Nature Walk stamp set. We got this set for being at the event.
Good day everyone! Here is another project from the Vancouver Regional make n' take that uses the Nature Walk stamp set. This card took me awhile to make because I couldn't get the crimple (I don't think there is such word) or ripple look to the Old Olive cardstock. I had to borrow the Crimper from another demonstrator. I guess mine is broken. I tried to crimp the cardstock so many times it made a funny look to the bottom of the cardstock so I cut it off. I like how it turned out. You can't tell that there was something wrong with the card.
A little note card holder. This is a great gift to give to your hostess.
Here is the inside of the holder.
