Design Team Projects for June for KS4U and Flossie Scrapper!

Hi everyone! I'm totally late in posting up my last projects as a guest designer for KS4U and my June project for Flossie Scrapper! I finished them up last week before heading out to Denver on a mini vacation for my grandsons 2nd Birthday! So here they are! I love how they each came out, I first did the paper mache book box which I painted with black acrylic paint then added a coat of modge podge kinda as a sealant, then I papered it with Graphic45 "Curtain Call" I love that paper line. I then added some trims, I used my "sewing room" sizzix die for the dress form. Added some trim from Kraft supplies 4U, along with some metals and braided trim from Julie's shop as well. I made this project as a gift as well for my daughters step mother in law, she really liked it! I hope u all like what I did with it as well! 

As for my 2nd project, it was a combination project for Flossie Scrapper and KS4U! I had a tin I had saved to alter. I had the Authentique "Classique Beauty" paper which was very adorable, this was sent to me by Vicki, the owner of Flossie Scrapper, I also used some Prima embellishements from her shop, I also used some Petaloo flowers (yellow) from Flossie Scrapper as well. 

As for the embellishments that I used from KS4U, I used the adorable mini masks (black), they come in a variety of colors, I used some flowers from there as well (black) and a doily , along with a wishing well charm I painted it black, and some black/white organza trim from Kraft Supplies 4U! I love how this turned out, as I will be using it to store some small embellishments! I hope u all like my projects, I didn't think I did too bad for being I was losing my crafting mojo lol! I'll be back with some great news!!

My very 1st Pocket Letter!! Guest Design Team Project for Kraft Supplies 4U!

Hi! Today I am very excited to share with you my guest design team project for  Kraft Supplies 4 U ! I FINALLY made a pocket letter using the beautiful paper from one of the Gorjuss Girl collections! Anyhow, I wanted it to make it my style but not too much "vintage" so I hope I was able to accomplish that! I used some of the newest trims that I got from Julies shop, I cut them up and sprayed them with some sprays from Tattered Angels and one with my homemade spray. This letter is going to someone but I didn't want to show what I was REALLY sending in the letter so I put in some temporary goodies!

Paper Bag mini album for KraftSupplies4U!

Hi all, as previously posted that I am just catching up with posting my last two projects, this one was the last project for the month of May for www.ks4u.net . I had been pretty sick and just alot going on. I have been wanting to make one of these paper bag mini albums, I did enjoy making it, I was just a tad bummed that I could not go crazy embellishing it! But no worries I just love how it came out and how the saying goes "Less is More" , in this case it def. was just that! I hope u enjoy my project! ~Hugs~ 















Authenttique "Classique Beauty" Easel card with drawer

HI crafty friends! I am very late in posting my project for May for FlossieScrapper , I had been very sick almost all month dealing with bad back issues then caughty a pretty bad cold which led me to lose my voice for several days!

Just so much going on. I have been wanting to make a card for sometime now but I really love the easel cards, so I decided to make this one and add a drawer! I followed a great tutorial from "gettinginspired" on youtube. I was able to make it fairly fast! I hope u like my project as much as I liked making this!

My Mini Dresser

Hi again crafty friends! I wanted to share with you all my project for the 2nd week of May for Kraft Supplies 4 U , this time I altered this mini dresser that I had received as part of a destash haul I purchased. This is a dresser from Daiso I believe, I applied gesso, painted it pink, then papered it using one of my favorite paper stacks The Paper Studio's "Kellerkurtz & Company" I distressed the edges of the paper with Victorian Velvet Distress Ink from Tim Holtz/Ranger. I then just embellished it using lace trim, beaded trim from Kraft Supplies 4 U! Added some Wild Orchid Craft flowers as well. I hope u all like it, there is also a video I made, here is the link if you would like to take a look at it! Thanks ! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iHr6duJKUQ0

Mother's Day gift/ Design Project for KS4U for May 2015

Hi crafty friends! So I finished up my first Design Team project for the month of May for Kraft Supplies 4 U, I had these embroidery hoops in different shapes, 3 that were oval and I have 1 round one. I thought I would alter them because I knew it would for one be something different than I've ever done and also something my mom would like as a gift because she used embroidery hoops in the past.  I hope u enjoy my project as much as I enjoyed making it! ~hugs~
