Here is the lo that I came up with. For me, I used the negative space of the bike's handlebars to form a deer. The stars are the deer's antlers.

Christmas canvas!

Hi everyone! Today I'd like to share a canvas that I made, for Christmas decoration, using My Favorite Things 'Scallops'  stencil. Love MFT stencils to bits! When I first saw this 'lovely' I thought It would make a wonderful accent in order to make my tree look real....love how the stencil gave it life!

 

 

 

Here's the "Scallops" stencil that I used:

 

 

Yup, I flipped the stencil and voila I had a lovely tree look!

 

Here are some close-ups:

 

 

For the background, I used some vintage book paper and a sewing pattern cover.

 

 

For my tree, I used old ledger paper, which I tinted and then then added the stencil work and more color.

 

 

I topped off the tree with a star made from up-cycled packaging material.

Christmas is around the corner...oh my!

Hi everyone! Today I'd like to share a Christmas card that I made for the upcoming Holiday. It's coming fast, so I figured I better get started now! I had the pleasure of my sister's company, this weekend, to make Christmas cards and this is what I came up with. I  used some Tim Holtz die cuts for the trees and dear. Now I just need about 30 more....lol!

Hi everyone! Today I'd like to share a lo that I did for the Paperdvizhnik  'hide and seek' challenge. For this challenge, I used a precious moment where our sweet dog was hiding in his blanket and peeked out, just as I took the picture. We challenge you to show us a project that represents the idea  of the game hide and seek.

The red cup!

Hi everyone! Today I'd like to share a lo that I made using My Favorite Things "winged beauties" stencil. I thought it was perfect for a happy, upward, steam effect for the yummy pumpkin spice latte that I had, in the first red cup of the Season.

 

 

Here's the stencil:

 

 

Here's a close-up: of the beauties:

 

 

I used modeling paste on one, and twinkling H2O's on the other and then outlined them with a marker.
