Thanks for visiting!


Welcome! This is the place where I share the cards and other crafty projects that I make in my little studio. When I was small, my mother taught me how to make paper dolls from pictures in the Sears catalog, and furniture from cardboard. I am now in my 60's and still playing with paper!

While you are here I hope you will find inspiration and ideas for making your own projects, however any cards or images you find here are my personal property and should not be used for your own contests or challenges. Thank You!

Tuesday Morning Sketches and Die Cuts R Us Challenges

Once again I am 'piggy backing' challenges here, but they just fit so well I couldn't resist it!  Die Cuts R Us' challenge this week is a color challenge based on My Minds Eye 'Lush' line, and we were asked to create a project using any one color from that line (black, blue, brown, pink and red) plus white.  The Tuesday Morning Sketches challenge is to make any project other than the usual card.  It could be an altered project, 3-D project - basically anything BUT a card.  Here is my take on both challenges . . .


 





And here is all the info . . .

Product List:
  • Patterned paper for purse is My Minds Eye Ooh La La "All Dressed Up"
  • Patterned paper for flower tag is My Minds Eye Ooh La La "Lah Dee Dah"
  • Crocheted flower is from My Minds Eye "Laundry Line"
  • White ribbon and pom-pom trim is from Dollar Tree
  • Half pearls are from Basic Grey 'opaline'
  • Rhinestone and jump rings are from my stash
  • Flap of purse is held with a velcro dot
Cricut Info:
  • All cuts were made using Tags, Bags, Boxes and More cartridge
  • Purse is purse2

Wouldn't this be a lovely gift for Mother's Day???  Thanks for visiting, Becky
