Good morning!

is

"Anything But A Card"!

Our sponsors for this challenge are:

Polkadoodles


Prize: $15 Gift Certificate

Kitty Bee Designs

So, I'm mostly a card maker, but as of recent

have been trying to do some other types

of paper crafts! And, I'm rather enjoying it!

My DT project  for this challenge is an altered letter

using Cow Barely Over the Moon from

Kitty Bee Designs.

By taking some DP, decoupage medium, an image.

 a few die cuts and some enamel dots,

this is what I ended up with!

What about you?

What kind of projects do you like to do other than cards?

We'd love to see them this week at

Cute As A Button Inspiration

Hey all!

It's my day to share an inspiration project at

Cute As A Button Inspiration Showcase!

I chose to do an altered wooden letter projecting

Circus Parade.

I started with a 9 1/2 inch wooden letter

and printed the digi.

I chose a cute printed paper I thought would work well.

I turned letter face down on the backside of the paper and traced

and then cut out.

I used acrylic paint to cover the backside and edges of the letter.

Once this was dry I applied the cut out paper to the front

of the letter with decoupage medium. The next step was

to use the medium as a sealer over the paper.

While this dried I fussy cut the image which was colored

to match the paper.

Next I decided where to place the image and a banner

I put together with die cuts, glittered sticker letters

and baker's twine.

Once these pieces were adhered I punched and layered some flowers

and pulled out some buttons.

Once I had everything placed and attached I decided

to add some die cut leaves as the last touch.

I think this would make such a cute piece of nursery decor and hope that 

perhaps, I've inspired you to try a project like this.
