These stamped images of cups and a tea pot remind me of some dishes from my Grandmother's house. Check out this picture. I used the masking technique on the cups.

Favorite Things

Time to share a few things that I am loving right now-These new smells from Bath and Body works. I bought a dozen of these little babies, and I have them everywhere-purse, kitchen, car and work. I only wish they came in a 1gallon size!

Roasted Almond Butter-It is so yummy. Most of the time I am just eating it right out of the tub, but I have put it on toast or with an apple. It is kinda expensive-but if you use it a little at a time it is so worth it.

This purse-from 31 gifts! I have lots of their stuff, but right now I am loving this bag. It's just the right size. I can add my planner, kindle and all the other stuff I tote around with room to spare! If you don't have a 31 consultant-go here. http://www.mythirtyone.com/loving31/

Felt Butterfly

This card was inspired by this card! I really like all the textures on the card with the felt and pearls. I also added some graph paper for fun! (even added a little to the inside of the card!)
Below is a picture of how I created the felt butterfly. I used the Close to My Heart stamp set Fill in the blank stamped it right on the felt (cheep kind from Wal-Mart) and cut it out!

Tissue Paper Challenge:Mother's Day Paper Corsage

I read several of the Paper Crafts blog, they are full of great inspiration. Last week on the Moxie Fab blog, Cath issued a challenge to create a project using tissue paper. In honor of Mother's Day I thought I would make a corsage that Mom could wear to church on Sunday!

1st I cut a strip of tissue paper, and ran it through the cuttlebug using some flower die cuts.

I left the tissue paper folded and cut through several layers.

Next up I sewed some small black beads to the center of each flower.

Then I scrunched up several layers of the flowers to give them dimension.

Lastly I assembled the corsage on a paper Dollie. I added some leaves, a few loops of ribbon and a vintage looking key I found at Joann's. I added a couple of pins so Mom can attach it to her shirt.
