H.I.M.C.R. #98 - Faux Linen


For current Challenges
over at
Hiding In My Craft Room
This week the challenge was
Faux Linen

What a fun technique this was to do.

I did the Tissue Paper technique that I found
HERE

I did it a little different as I did not use glue. I used my Creative Station by Xyron.

The larger wings were done on a piece of paper I won
last year from Diana over at DLArt.
It has the same Linen affect.

The smaller wings I used the tissue paper.

So easy and so pretty. I will be doing this again.

Mother's Day Flower Pot Coupons

For current Challenges
HIMCR #96 Name Your Colors!!


I promise this is my last post for today.

I had not planned on this post going live until tomorrow.
However, I just ran across a challenge over at
Peachy Keen and wanted to enter it and it ends today.

I loved this book the moment I saw it. It is a Print N Cut file.
I was not fond of pale blue of the pots so I changed it to a polka dot.

I duplicated one of the pots, used the knife tool and removed the top portions so I could cut it out as a separate piece and glued to the top of each pot for dimension.

I changed the text as well. Have 2 that repeat every other coupon.
One reads: good for one Kiss
the other reads: good for one Hug.




Please scroll down and check out my other 2 post from today.
