Graduation

I volunteered to make a graduation card for our book club to present to one of the young men in our neighborhood who is graduating from high school.  He will be attending a university come fall.

Designing Divas - April

For April, Lynn hosted the project and we all made matchbox art.  We all love tiny trinkets and altered match boxes are perfect for them.  Below is the one I created with the help of Lynn's supplies and ideas.

Lynn is always inspirational and I, of course, had to make some more.  I finally finished them.  I had to take them apart because I made the fatal error of attaching papers to the inside of the box.  That is a definite "no no" because you won't be able to slide open the drawer.  I also found a necklace with glass leaves that worked out well for the box pulls.  Taking the boxes apart ended up as a big plus and now the drawers can be opened.

Butterfly Fairy

I created this for the weekly "fairy" challenge at Digital Whisper.  You can view the resources used here.

HAPPY SPRING

 

 

For those of you who celebrate Easter, may it be a lovely day filled with family and friends and joy and love abound.

March Project - Designing Divas

Ada presented a greeting card project to be completed 3-D style. We stamped the house image on a folded white card to be colored for the base to the card.  After coloring mine, I decided it was too pretty to cover with additional layers.  Ada gave each of us a sheet of three additional images to use for layering  and I used one for my new base card.  I colored the others and cut away sections to be layered for the 3-D effect.  Ada, I like both of my cards.  Thank you for your terrific project. 

My final 3D card is much more attractive than the scan shows.  I have three layers and added glitter glue to the flowers in the window box and the flowers in the pot on the porch.  I scattered some green glitter glue across the tops and within the foilage of the trees and bushes.  I also added a layer to the flag and put some glitter for the stars in the flag.  THUS, from my house to yours, have a happy weekend.

Easter Cards

I started early but only have a few cards finished.  I need to get busy and complete the remainder.
