Cute As A Button November Inspiration



Hello everyone!
Today's my day to share a little inspiration on the

I've been having a lot of fun playing with
altered letters, so I decided to use
to create one that would be fitting for any little girl!


I started by coloring the image with pencils
and fussy cutting. Then I painted the backside
of the 9 1/2 inch wood letter.


Next I covered the front side of the letter
with a coordinating DP from Hot Off the Press
with decoupage medium.
I also chose a set of 3-D paper tole from Hot off the Press
to use as embellishments.

To finish I added some gems to Cinderella's crown
and added some punched butterflies
that were embellished with some rub-ons.


Be sure a visit the
and check out all the products available.

Don't forget to join in on our monthly

Cute As A Button projects on the 

Until next time
Happy Crafting!

November inspiration at MHKDesigns



Hi there!
Today's my day to share my inspiration post at

I've been working on making items to sell
at craft shows and decided to do some
quick and easy gift card holders

&

I started by printing the stocking image 4 times,
colored with pencils and fussy cut.
Then I added some stickles for a little sparkle!

Cut a 3 1/2 x 8 1/2 inch piece of solid
card stock and a 2/1/4 & 3 1/4 inch piece of 
printed paper for each holder.

Take one piece of 3 /12 x 8 1/2 inch paper and score
2 inches from one end and 2 1/2 inches from the other.
Attach the printed papers to each end.
Glue the 2 1/2 inch scored end on each end 
to form the pocket to place the gift card in.
Decorate the outside as desired.

I die cut some ovals to pop my fussy cut stockings on and
glued to the top flap ( 2 1/2 inch end).
As the last step glue velcro to the inside of the top
flap and top of the bottom piece.




And, there you have it!
Quick and easy!

Until next time,
Happy Crafting!
