Tis The Season

Happy Friday, everyone! Today I'm over on the SVG Attic Blog sharing my first Christmas Project. It's been two years since I've used the Mourner's Hat from the JGW Raven Quest Kit to create a Christmas Top Hat. 

I originally made this hat for my Mother and she used it for two years. And then I said "Mom, it's time to let it go", it was becoming a little worn. She insisted that I make another one to replace it, I agreed and here we are.  I used DCWV Merry Memories Stack and the embellishments are repurposed from an old "designer" tree she had. 

And here's the original hat from two years ago and a link to that post, The Magic of Christmas. 

Here's to a wonderful Holiday Season! 

As always, thanks for joining us today!

Peas and Thank You

Hi, everyone and welcome! Today I'm over on the Victorine Originals Blog sharing a card featuring the Pea Pod Stamp from Victorine Originals and another punny sentiment. I refuse to drag Y'all down with me and the puns, so I'll just jump into the card and the how-to.

It seems most everything I make is quick and simple, this one is no different. I used DCWV The Basics 6x6 Paper Pad and DCWV DIY Project Stack Favor Boxes 12 x 12 Paper Pad. The sentiment, like most I do, is printed onto the color cardstock using my printer. I stamped the Pea Pods Stamp several times, no rhyme or reason, just do it. Color two peas in each pod with a green alcohol marker or watercolor pen then color the rest of the images with a light gray. The rest is die-cutting, I used stitched rectangle dies so I create layers. I die-cut the printed sentiment using a banner die. I added a little fun foam to create dimension between the second and third layers. I finished the card off with three enamel dots.

As always, thanks for joining us here on the Victorine Original Challenge Blog.

Set Sail with SVG Attic

Hi and welcome, everyone! With Mother's Day and Summer upon us, I wanted to share a fun take on the JGW Fashionably French High Heel Shoe and Purse Gift Card Holder.  Every girl needs a great pair of shoes and handbag to set sail, right?

DCWV Seaside Yacht 12 x 12 Paper Pad 

I just love the navy and cream floral pattern for this high heel, so couture!

 

Using the blue and cream polka dot paper in the shoe and purse pulls this set together.

So using DCWV Seaside Yacht 12 x 12 Paper Pad, Cream Cardstock, adhesive, and silver brads these items are super easy to make. And the great thing about them you can use any papers you have to create your very own Couture Fashion Line. 

You can find all the details on my blog, In The Crafting Cave.

As always, thanks for joining us and

have a great weekend!

Here is what I created for the hop:

SVG Attic Round Traveling Case, SVG Attic Mourner's Hat, DCWV Hand-Painted Christmas, DCWV Merry Memories Stack

For my first project I created a Round Traveling Case from the JGW Fabulously French Collection using 12 x 12 papers from the DCWV Hand-Painted Christmas Stack. This case will make a perfect Hostess Gift when attending those Holiday Parties. You could fill with candy, cookies, handmade holiday cards, ornaments, and so much more!

What a great way to gift ornaments!

I embossed all the straps, covered brackets with gold embossing powder and secured with gold brads.

Always remember the backside of projects. 

I used square brads on the back to dress it up a bit and I think it's just as pretty as the front. 

Loving the gold heat embossed brackets and gold brads. 

I adorned it with the Pine Cones, from the SVG Attic JGW Santa's Repose, covered in Frantage tied with ribbon, a few mini ornaments and the tag is from the DCWV Hand-Painted Christmas Stack. I picked that tag specifically to gift ornaments in this travel case.

For my second project I used the Mourner's Hat from the JGW Raven's Request  from SVG Attic and DCWV Merry Memories Stack to create a Carolers Hat. I love this hat because you can use it for anything! You can see a Spring Version I made here.

Frantage, Glitter and Flower Soft add loads of texture.

I used Frantage and Flower Soft to had snow and texture to the leaves. 

Makes a beautiful tree topper!

I also used the Jingle Bells, Sprigs of Spruce and Holly Leaves from the JGW Santa's Repose Collection to dress this hat up. Filling in with a few snowed covered twigs and berry clusters covered in red glitter. This makes a beautiful tree topper, just be careful to keep lights away from it.
