Modeling For Mommy

I have a weakness for Hambly Designs...especially transparencies...and if those transparencies happen to have some woodgrain going on...I'm in heaven!  That said, when I saw these pictures of Kessa modeling a skirt for me in a tree I knew they'd be perfect with the Hambly I'd been hoarding.




I added a few pops of Sassafras boarders, some fussy cut images and, of course, doodling.


For the finishing touch I used some Diamond Glaze on parts of some of the fussy cut flowers. 

The result, a simple LO that I really love!

Birthday Girls


We had a fun little sketch to use for the newsletter this month and this is the LO I made from it.  


My Thickers weren't quite the right color to match the rest of the LO (they were a lighter pink) so I just used some glimmer mist to tint them and make them match and then added some doodled outlines.


This totally fabulous Chandelier Garland is by Magnolia, which happens to be one of the Featured Manufactures at AWDML this month...which means everything is 25% off!  Be sure to check out all the Magnolia and Imaginisce products that are on sale this month.  

AND, if you stick around, later today (or possibly sometime tomorrow) I'll have a video of something from Imaginisce you just might want to scoop up while it's 25%!  ;)


Supplies:
Pink Paislee Parisian Anthology Beautiful Butterfly
Imaginisce Lucy Bird Flower Power
Flowers from stash
Magnolia Chandelier Garland Pink / Light Pink
American Crafts Lullaby Thickers (misted to match)
Tattered Angels Pink Bubblegum Glimmer Mist

Heart Banner + Clipboards =

Some new room decor!  lol.

I have a complete tutorial for how to make this very heart banner up on A Walk Down Memory Lane if you're interested.  ;)


I still need to add some more pictures to my clipboards...but my printer seems to be on the fritz!  Grrr...


I had an extra heart that I needed up not using on the banner so I added it to the corner of the center clipboard along with a few flowers and a ticket and I had the "love" vinyl leftover from a sign I made using the negative space as a stencil.  

And *hopefully* tomorrow I'll have some new throw pillows on the bed to show you too!  :)

I had a lot of fun playing around with some of the Let's Roll papers,

and also the Lucy Bird papers!


and if you watched my misting video you might recognize the backgrounds.  :)

Misting Tutorial

I shared a while back that I've been asked to be the tutorial member of the design team at A Walk Down Memory Lane and now I'm excited to share my first video tutorial with you!

A lot is probably just a review or reminder for some of you, it's mainly basic tips and techniques for misting, but I hope you enjoy!
