Painted Face

My daughter loves having her face painted!  This particular flower didn’t last long, though.  She smeared it just after I took this photo.  Oh, well, there will be more flowers. 

To give the Want2Scrap™ letters the watercolored look, I coated them first with gesso, then acrylic paint.  Once they were dry, I dripped some Shimmerz Spritz on them and blew it around with my heat gun until it dried.  Lovely!

Thanks for taking a peek.  You can see all the fabulous Want2Scrap™ Products HERE.

Exciting News!

I’m thrilled to share today that I am the new DT Coordinator for The Curtsey Boutique!  My friend CarrieAnne DeLoach owns this shop.  She opened it a year ago and has done very well, and it’s easy to see why!  There is so much to love in this shop, for papercrafters, altered artists, and crafters of other sorts too.

You can see the shop blog HERE and the Etsy shop HERE.

Go take a look!  You’ll be in love.

Swing!

One day at the park, I told my daughter to do anything she liked and I would take a photo.  This is what happened.

I used the November kit from Little Black Dress for this page.  It’s great for nearly any kind of layout!  Take a peek HERE.

I Altered A Notebook

I feel like this post should have a much more exciting title!  I’ve not been very good about posting recently, but again with good reason.  I’ve been working on my Little Black Dress November Kit projects, which I can now begin to post.  I’ve also been gearing up for a new blog, a new DT, and some holiday projects.  So much fun stuff coming up!

The new kit from Little Black Dress is called “The Handsome Pretty.”  It’s available HERE.  Isn’t it fun?

Here’s my first project, an altered notebook.  I make several of these each year for gifts, including for my daughter, who fills up two per year with her drawings and doodles.  I know we’re going to love looking back on these in a few years time!

This kit has a lot of awesomeness!  More projects to come.
