Easter Wreath 2019




Supplies:

1. 14 inch wreath form from Dollar Tree
2. Sign and flowers from Dollar Tree
3. Mesh ribbon from Hobby Lobby.
Used 5.5 x 10 yard rolls. Some colors I used 2 rolls, some 1 1/2 rolls.
4. Pipe cleaners. I used 1 pipe cleaner for each bundle.  HL mesh is thicker than DT's.
5. Glue sticks and hot glue gun. 

I used the bundle method by Amber "This Southern Girl Can" on YouTube.

Pipe cleaners are hot glued to back of sign.

Happy Crafting!

Altered Coffee Sleeve Mini Album Swap

This mini album was for my partner in a vintage/shabby/Victorian garden themed swap using coffee sleeves you get from Starbucks or DD.

The primary paper collection used was Graphic 45's Secret Garden and Photo Play's Things to Remember.

The cover page is from the Photo Play, along with a sticker from the collection.  I used some trim from Walmart and a butterfly from my stash.


The next two pages are from the Secret Garden collection.  I used the stamps as small photo mats and cut out a piece of the collection to make a journaling spot.


The next two pages are from the Secret Garden collection.  I made a belly band and a small photo mat one page and another journaling spot on the other. 

The journaling spot pages are hot glued together to make pockets.

The next two pages are also from the Secret Garden collection.  I made a small pocket and stuck some tags in it.


The back cover page is a combo of both paper collections.



Used my Crop-O-Dile to punch the hole and a medium size ring to bind the album.  Decided not to use any fibers on the side since the album is a mini.

Had fun making this.  Hope my partner likes it.

Make it a crafty day.

Altered Paper Clips for Year Round Christmas Swap Group

I belong to a swap group that swaps Christmas projects year round.

These are altered paper clips.

I used rosettes for the bases and dug through my stash for the bits and bobs used for the embellishments.  I thought they needed a little more so I stamped some Christmas phrases from a stamp set from a UK stamping magazine and Tattered Lace stamps.

I hot glued everything down to make sure the clips stay secured.




Thanks for stopping by.

Make it a crafty day!
