Just for fun

I usually make things for specific occasions or for people than request me something . This time I just wanted to create something just for fun, and that's what I did. I had nobody in mind nor a specific idea, I just follow my creativity and I try to create something in a mixed media style.

Valentine's cards

This week I was blogging and I came across this amazing blog http://www.thevintagemoth.blogspot.com/ . This wonderful lady post on her blog images free to download and use for art project. So I decided to use some of her images, the ledge paper, as a background for this two Valentine's card. Than I added some Prima flowers and a glittered heart.

Paper sacks album

This week end I felt crafty with paper. I created this mini album with paper sacks that I bought at Michaels. I used 5 sacks and I left it open to the end part so I could put more thing in it( like tags). The paper and the butterfly are from k&company, and I also used copy of vintage french images. I was trying to stay away from my sewing machine for the week end, but in the end I had to put a few stitches in this project too. I hope the person will recive this album will enjoi it.

My sewing book

This is My Sewing Book. I love books and since I am not able to write one, I wanted to make one.
I called it "My Sewing Book" so I can store some of my sewing supplies in it, such as scissors, pins, safety pins, lace, etc. It is all made out of scrap fabrics I had left over from other projects. I added pockets for all the supplies, a paper pad to write my ideas, and spaces for all the things I have. It came out so pretty that the next time I travel I will have to take it with me.

Canvas

I felt in love with canvas project. I saw them in a lot of magazine and I found it fascinating. So I decided to make two for my in-laws for Christmas. I designed a scrapbook page and put in a canvas so it can be display in a wall and not only inside an album. It took a day to have the project done from start to finish, it was ready just in time for us to leave.
I will definitely make few for myself in the near future.

Cuff

I felt in love with cuffs recently and I wanted to make my own. I always save small pieces of fabrics and lace left from my big project and put them in a small basket in my desk, you never know when you need it. So I was finally able to dip in the basket and create this cute cuff.
