my crafty Wednesday

Hello Everyone,

The tote bag covers were inspired by Betz White.  She has a free tutorial on her blog. 

On the cards, I was trying to do the "Melissa Phillips" style....vintage, soft and lots of embellishments.

The second set, I used Betsy Veldmans website as inspiration.

I jazzed up my free Menards t-shirt that my husband got for me.   I used scraps of Stampin Up fabric...Twitterpated.

The last item I completed was a Transformers pillow for our son.  He loves Transformers Prime.

thanks for checking in,

Vicki

Papertrey Ink Day 4 , project #2

I made hearts for the girls for Valentine's Day, so I had to whip up something for the little guys...faux fish.  I used Terracotta Tile, Simple Chartreuse, and Aqua Mist felts.  The "hooks" are fastened with Button Twine.  

Papertrey Ink Day 4 contest

This is a stuffed heart.  I got the idea from Melissa Phillips blog several days ago.  She made several hearts and had names for them.

One thing I love about Papertrey Ink dies, is that they cut felt.  I used the "heart border" with Hibicus Burst felt.  There is also a Raspberry Fizz button on there.  By using the dies and PTI felt, I can make my own embellishments :)

Papertrey Ink's 5th year anniversary contest

Hi , These are "post-it note" holders.  I got the pattern from one of my papercrafter friends.  I used Michelle Wooderson's Friendship Summer Jar Fillers stamp set and Jar die, Tiny Tags stamp set and die,  PTI Kraft  and rustic cream paper, and  Tea Dye Duo on the edges of the jar.   The background paper is Crate Paper.  I got this idea from one of  Michelle's blog posts.  Isn't it going to be GREAT that someone is going to win ALL of those WONDERFUL PTI products !!!!

Make it Monday with Papertrey Ink

I followed Nichole's video and used the same stamp set.  I mixed up the colors a bit.  I could use some more practice on getting the "sentiment" straight.   The stamp set is "Sending You."
