Paper Mache House

Hello friends!  I had some time today to play with one of my favorite Simple Stories paper lines...the 25 Days Of Christmas.  The colors of the house are the colors I use to decorate in my living room. I can keep the little house out year around.

Together We Are A Family Album

Hello friends!  It feels so good to have all 25 CHA projects done  !  If you’re going to CHA, let me know if you eye spy any of my projects.  There will be several in Basically Bare and WOW Embossing Booth, as well as Amazing Mold Putty and Robin’s Nest.  This Tabs Album is one of the projects you may see in Basically Bare Booth.

Playing Dress-Up: Vintage Style

Hello friends!  I've been busy with CHA projects and have all 25 shipped and ready to go for CHA!  After CHA, I'll share some of the projects :)  Basically Bare has so many new products being released and one of the designs is my very own!  SO EXCITING!  WOW! Embossing Powders will also debut at CHA and there are many beautiful powders as well as clear stamps.  I have a very large project for Amazing Mold Putty and look forward  to sharing it with you..soon!  CHA is always so exciting with all the anticipation of new products and beautiful projects!
Playing Dress-Up was so much fun to make!  I have been looking for the perfect fabric for my dress, but haven't found the perfect print.  SO, I decided to use Simple Stories, 25 Days Of Christmas line.  This is one of my favorite lines..it's right up there with Year-O-Graphy collection.  The mini hanger is Crafty Secrets and the White String Jute, White Lace and Black crocheted lace are Really Reasonable Ribbon.  The pattern is by McCalls and is an American Doll pattern.

Here's a closer look.

Altered Monster Energy Drink Can: Vintage Style Challenge

Hello friends :)  You know me, if an object sits still long enough, I will alter it!  Our boy's like Monster Energy Drinks and I asked them to keep a couple of their cans.  After looking at them, I decided to start with a coat of Gesso. The butterfly is by WOW and is called  Build-a-Butterfly.  I've stamped on the can with WOW Brocade Stamp Set 4, and then heat embossed with Earthtone Nutmeg (Suzy West Collection).  The chipboard dress form is Basically Bare.  Lace is from Really Reasonable Ribbon.  Patterned Paper is Simple Stories.

While snooping around and hopping to blogs, I spotted this challenge and decided to give it a whirl.
Berry71bleu has this fun challenge through January.  Look at this awesome Prize!
