Tag Shadow Box

Hello. Hope everyone is having a fantastic weekend! I was inspired to make this from a project by Melissa Phillips. If you love Shabby Chic, then you must check out her blog. The challenge this week over at Simon Says Stamp and Show is tags so I decided to finally make my own version. I placed them in a shadow box to display on the wall.

The papers, resin embellishment, word rub ons, white lace trim and chandelier drop are all from the Melissa Frances 5th Avenue line.

The butterflies wer cut out from some scraps of Prima's Recollections line. The lace and heart button on Tag 1 are from Joann Fabrics. The flowers are from Wild Orchid Crafts.I used a fram die from Sizzix, Martha Stewart punch and a brad from My Mind's Eye for Tag 2.

Some Maya Road black organza rose ribbon, white flower ribbon, Melissa Frances pearls and 7 Gypsies tape on Tag 3.

Canvas Layout

Quick post tonight. I made this a couple week's ago for my daughter and am just getting around to posting it. This was my first time working with canvas. The 12x12 canvas was part of the July Kit from The Flying Unicorn Store, along with the Tattered Angels screen. The kit also included some glimmer mist. I will definitely have to work on my technique with the glimmer mist. My first attempt with the canvas did not go well and I thought the canvas was most likely going in the trash. I used the pink ink that also came in the kit and went over the screen and then used some Tim Holtz to add some black. Overall, I thought it came out okay. I got to use some of my new Sizzix dies. I added some Webster's Bloomers and Maya Road Zipper Trim for the flowers.

Thanks for stopping by. Enjoy the rest of the weekend!

You Hold the Key

Happy Wednesday everyone! We're half way through the week. I have an easel card to share today. The challenge over at Magnolia Stamp Lovers is "Graduation or Congratulations". This is for a friend's daughter who is graduationg high school.

I used some of the digital papers from Webster's Pages on the front of the card and on the tag. The beautifu organza rose ribbon on the tag and inside the card is from Maya Road. The flowers are from Wild Orchid Crafts. Tilda was colored with Copics and the script background is a stamp from Glitz. Throw in some Tim Holtz film strip ribbon and adage ticket and...Voila.

Here's a close up of the tag using a corner cut from some of the Webster's Pages. I also used the "I believe I can fly" stamp from Magnolia and added some lace and twine (Hope it's enough lace for the Just Magnolia and Bunny Zoe's challenges).

Magnolia Stamp Lovers - Graduation/Congratulations
