Hello!  All That Scraps is previewing Lil Lads and Lolitas, Mashi and Drozy's Darlings stamps today.  We're continuing with the love and marriage theme.

My card features Bride Lilith and the sentiment is from Wedding Labels.  I wanted to give her dress an antique-y look.  Have you seen that show, Something Borrowed, Something New where a bride has to decide between a new wedding dress or a remade dress passed down from her grand/mother?  It's such a neat show to see how the designer can rethink that old dress into something new.  I don't know if my daughter would want to wear my old wedding dress.  I'd probably want her to get something a bit more modern.  The dresses these days seem so much nicer!  And more expensive too.

Please head over to the All That Scraps blog to see more of the preview!  We'll be back tomorrow for a Sweet November preview.

Thanks for stopping by!

Pretty card! Love the antique-y vibe with the doily, ribbon and embellies, and of course your coloring!

Sorry to comment here. I came by for the Perfect Paper and Faber-Castell Blog Hop but you do not have a comment link on that post. Hopefully, you can update your page to fix that, but just in case I wanted to let you know how beautiful and elegant your first two samples were and how cute and fun your early Halloween card was.

I agree with Jean. I apologize for commenting here, but you didn't leave a link for comments on your post for the Perfect Paper and Faber-Castell Blog Hop. I hope you get it fixed soon, and I hope our posts here still count. I truly like how you created your cards using the tools. They're beautiful!

TGF 3rd Annual Customer Blog Hop

By
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

By
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...
