A Card for Freshly Made Sketches #738

Hey Crafty Friends!! Happy Sunday! 

I am just popping in today with a card I created today for Freshly Made Sketches #738 and Simon Says Stamp! Wednesday Challenge-Anything Goes.

I used the Tweet Friend stamp and die set by Simon Says Stamp! for my stamped images. I did a bit of sewing with platinum thread behind my image.

I added some sequins around the images to give it some shine. Below is the Freshly Made Sketch #738 that inspired my card.

I had fun stamping and coloring the bird with Copic markers for this card. 

That is all from me today. I want to thank you for taking the time to stop by. Have a FABULOUS day!!

A Pillow and some Scrapbook Pages

Happy Friday!! I cannot believe it is August and my summer is almost over. I still haven't done everything I planned for this summer but here are a few projects that I created the last few weeks.

My first project is a sewing project. I made a 16" pillow and created this without a pattern. I am NOT a sewer and though this looks like a piece of cake, it took me a long time to make. I wasn't sure how to much extra to cut out to make the seams and the envelope pocket was not in the middle on the back. I have a larger pillow to make and will doing it a bit different when I sew that one.

Here is the pillow with my bedding. The lighting in my bedroom is horrific so please forgive me.

This is a more accurate photo of the colors.

I had so much fun scrapping this photo of Charlotte and my friend Jil's son Noah. It was taken last year at our annual get together in Wickham park. I used Nostalgia die cuts by My Mind's Eye and used spray mist on the background paper. 

I LOVE these photos of Charlotte. Don't they just shout Pre-Teen? A very simple page using die cuts and spray mist.

Have a great weekend!! I hope you all get some time to do something creative!!
