'Ello all :)
Today is another Purplies DT day for Purplefuntastick Creations. Do you remember the flower we made for the last posting (see here). Well, we were given the challenge to take the flower and use it on an altered notebook. I stressed over this as I am not good at making altered notebooks. I looked at the notebook quite awhile before I decided what to do. I took my DCWV Garden Party stack that I received for my birthday. I love the brown and pink color combination and the paper borders that come in the pack are awesome. The sentiment is a sticker from the same pack. I used my Sticky Tape to piece it all together. Here is my journal:
I have to admit that it came out better than I expected. I hope that you will stop by Purplefuntastick Creations to see the other amazing journals. Until next time.....
Happy President's Day everyone. As you can see I have been a busy beaver lately; 3 projects in one day. Of course this one I had a little glitch. The challenge was to make a flower. Well I made a flower and it looked very lonely. So I mounted it on a card. Well, I was just supposed to make the flower and not put anything on it. So I have two things to share. One is my flower I made for the challenge:
I used my Mother's Day bouquet cartridge to make this rose. I am fascinated by roses (or any flowers) that have the colored edges. I wonder if they put them in food colored water??
I love roses but the flower that had the most impact for me was a Hawaiian hibiscus. I went to Hawaii for the first time when I was 19 and left my heart there. I would live there if I could. Here is the flower mounted on a card. This will be a birthday card for my best friend.
Two flowers made with the same cut but different. Thanks for stopping by and I hope you will stop by Purplefuntastick Creations to see what the other Purplies have done. Until next time...
Greetings all :)
I had so much fun thinking outside the box for this project. We were challenged to use canvas and I had a 5" x 7" flat canvas. I took Apple Barrel paints and sponged in two different shades of pink (we all know that I love pink and purple). I then turned to my Cricut and tried to find a vase. Well none of them had a vase so I got creative. I used my Cherry Limeade cartridge and used the lemonade cup shadow (I used the gypsy to hide the lemon slice). The flower stalks also were cut using the lower case "l". The flowers were cut from the Mother's Day Bouquet cartridge. Here is the finished product:
Doesn't the background remind you of fabric? Well, I have to say that I am quite happy with the result. I have to decide whether or not to add a sentiment at the top but for now I will leave it. Thanks for coming by and please stop by Kari's blog to see what my fellow DT team members made. Until next time...
