girls with glasses

Hi! I love girls with glasses. Whenever I see a stamp of a girl with glasses, I usually want it because they remind me of daughter who wears glasses. But I haven't seen many stamps like that. I wish The Greeting Farm would make an Anya with glasses. Wouldn't that be cute? So when I saw Saturated Canary's Ivy, I immediately picked it up. I made a card with Ivy for Saturated Canary's Challenge #12 -- doilies and used the deconstructed sketch #42.

I think I printed Ivy out a bit too small or I made my card a bit too big. Somehow she seems to be drowning a little in this layout. The colors were inspired by the outfit my daughter was wearing the other day, red leggings, pink skirt & a gray shirt with a bright Hello Kitty on it.

I used a couple of different doilies, flowers and made a chain of red felt hearts with PTI's heart border die.

Thanks so much for reading!

TGF 3rd Annual Customer Blog Hop

Hi! After finishing up these 2 projects for TGF's Blog Hop , I've come to realize that I am kind of addicted to stamps, especially TGF stamps. Hehe. Okay, I will not babble on too much since there are lots of other blogs to check out as well. I made something for both categories, Holiday and General. First up is my Holiday card. I recently acquired Hippie Anya! She inspired me to make a "peace" card for the holidays. But then I had to add Fleur Anya for "love" ... and 80s Anya for "joy." So great that these stamps could be turned into something Christmas-y. My General project has been swimming in my mind ever since I made that counting book a while back with TGF stamps as well. I thought I could make an ABC book too. But I didn't make this into a book. More like flashcards, I suppose. My youngest has a hard time recognizing lower case letters so I thought this would be fun for him. All stamps are TGF. I ...

upcycling Pokemon wrappers

Hello everyone! I am back with my latest sewing creations. I have been playing around with plastic wrappers! I've seen those upcycled plastic wrap bags and purses (usually made from Capri Sun package juice) but never really paid attention to them or how they were made until I saw this tutorial using the wrappers from Pokemon cards. My boys love Pokemon cards and were just throwing the wrappers away but I started saving them and collected enough from their recent birthdays to make a couple of items. Here is a little coin pouch (didn't want to call it a purse since it's for my youngest boy and he'd probably not like that). This little pouch was made with 4 wrappers, 2 in front and 2 in back. It is a bit tough to turn right side out because the wrappers and contact paper get stiff. But it's possible and looks really neat! I made it so he could hang it from the inside of his backpack and also carry around a little bit of emergency...
