Howdy. Yeah, busy crafting. {smile} I have to admit it, I really love it! I enjoy the whole creative process. But, I did want to take a break and share with you what I made. It's small, and very sweet. It is a magnetic wallet-size photo holder. Before you say anything, let me explain. You know those very unique and memorable school photos you have of your children? You probably have a hundred. You order enough for grandparents, neighbors, friends, and your children's friends. But some how you always have extras. Right? Well, why not display them with pizzazz! Either on your locker at work, or your frig, or how about providing a way for your child to 'frame' her BBF's pic?
And look! I made a few. And the others I made, aren't so shabby chic, feminine, girly. But, I really love this one {smile}.
I used Camilla pattern paper by Anna Griffin. I just love how beautiful and elegant this paper collection is. I cut a scallop trim piece from Silver glitter paper. (Love the sparkles.) And I took some pale pink scrunched seam binding and machine stitched them together (seam binding and glitter paper). I also made a multi-loop bow from the seam binding.
I made a blossom out of white sparkle clay, and distressed it with white paint and dazzling diamond glitter. I also did the same distressing on the two white pearl vintage buttons.
I added a little hand-stamped sentiment piece. I stamped the sentiment onto a scrap piece of digital pattern paper in basic black classic ink. Matted the sentiment circle with the same pale pink cardstock as the photo matt. The sentiment is sweet, and fancy {smile} 'Absolutely Fabulous'. Basically to 'match' the design and feel of the pattern paper.
Oh, I almost forgot. The finished size of these little gems is 4" x 4". Small and very sweet.
Thank you for looking. Just a heads up, tomorrow I will post a few photos of a few crafts I created using red and green. Yep, no kidding. Traditional Christmas colors. Real red and garden green. See you tomorrow.
