Mama LoveBug up first today with a perpetual birthday/any special days calendar. I used DCWV Sunglasses paper and fussy cut some darling beach bears and a Bahama Mama bear from Paper Piecings by Nikki - 3 different collections that go together. I also gold-embossed some beach props and added Stickles and gel-pens for accent. Here's a perpetual calendar to share One Fine Day with someone as a sunny treat!
Hi there!!!
Wasn't Mama's project ADORABLE??? So cute and creative!! :)
For my project I made a shadow box! It started off black so I painted it blue...then added some crackle medium and repainted it green! LOVE THE EFFECT (however not sure you can really see it in the picture!
For the outside I used the Tim Holts "Tattered Florals" die for the flowers as well as Stampin' UP! Brights Collection Paper. I added some twine that I actually got out of the packaging from a toy!
For the inside I used an Imaginisce Stamp and the SU!Brights Collection Ink to make my background. I computer generated the Wood Sign and Lettering. I popped them up on pop dots to make it stick out a little more! I hope you enjoy my shadow box!!!
Now don't forget to leave us some love & check out all the other Paper Hoarder DT Members! :)
Bug hugs,
Kimi
