Today I have a Floral Springtime tag I
have done up using Pinque Peacock

I do remember it was a weekly freebie).
Then I added a variety of silk, mulberry, resin
and metal flowers. I also added mulberry
leaves, a flatback heart, lace and a flatback
flower... in addition I also added two light green
Angel Stick Pin both products of Pinque Peacock!

***********
Today I have an altered shoe that
I have made into a pin cushion...
Now... I am a child of the 80's!!... Hair bands, parachutte pants
and granny boots. We LOVED those granny boots. I HAD
to have a pair. Yep, I still have them... and they have
been used for several costume parties...lol!!! BUT, I knew
I wasn't ever going to wear them again so I took one
and I wanted to make it into a pin cushion... cause
I have a LOVE for stick pins and I wanted something
to diplay them on. So using the PK Glitz "Violet"... I
went to town glittering it up... I first, working in sections
and with mod podge, covered the shoe and then sprinkled
the area with the glitter... once it dried I went back over it
"sealing" it with mod podge again... Then using the
"New Beginnings" Printable Journal by Tsunami Rose Designs...
I picked a couple pages I liked most... and the colors of
this printable went AWESOME with the PK Glitz "Violet",...
and mod podged the pieces randomly where I wanted it.
Than I added laces, flatbacks pearls, a cameo, charms,
seimens, mulberry flowers and leaves, a resin rose, a
buckle w/a flatback pearl. The cushion is just made of
polyfill and some scrap material I had... I just cover the
polyfill with the material, arranged it inside the shoe till I liked
it and hot glued it in! I also added some bling from
Angela Holts own on-line store she carries in her Bling
Splendor Line!!! Lastly I spritzed the flowers with a
stardust finishing spray from amuse studio. It took me
a few weeks to get this done, but I LOVE IT and I
have my pins from Pinque Peacock's
"Sweet Neopolitian" Collection displayed!!!

This color, "VOILET" is available in the Color Wheel Spring II
or in the Glitter Glitz .05 oz Jars...
I hope you enjoy my project!!

A Friendship Tag for... "Down The Memory Lane 1st Birthday Celebration" featuring PINQUE PEACOCK

Howdy Folks!!!...
 
Hope everyone is doing well today... My fellow DT
Sister Nuper is celebrating her blog's ONE YEAR BIRTHDAY,
Down The Memory Lane, with a celebration!!! I was so honored
she asked me to join in the fun!!!... To celebrate I have
created a Tag using mulberry flowers and leaves, a lace
doilie, a ribbon flower, a vintage button that I got from
my dear friend Christine. I also added vintage laces, pearl trim...
along with metal charms also from Christine.... BUT, the show
stopper is the GORGEOUS Pearl Stick Pin from
which is one of my favs!!! The tag itself my Mother-In-Law
shared with me as well as the vintage style stamped image.
Unfortunalely, I don't know who its by... I just knew I had
to stamp some tags with it so I could have it for future
use...lol!! The sentiment is from the Fiskars
"Friends Forever Quotes" collection... I LOVE THESE STAMPS!!!
I did a technique, that Charlie Jones demonstrated on her
Youtube using UTEE and distressing ink (I used vintage photo
by Tim Holtz on this). To finish it off I spritzed it with strardust finishing
spray by amuse studio! The tag itself was inspired by one I
seen created by Angela Holt... and since this tag was
inspired, has many shared products and I was asked by
Nuper, a sweet friend to be a part of her celebration, it had
 to have a theme of friendship... hence the sentiment! Because
friendship is all about sharing, caring and inspiring... I hope
you enjoy my project and be sure to visit Nupur's blog
all month long and be a part of her CELEBRATION!!!

 

 
Thanks for stopping by and be sure to check out the
AWESOME GIVEAWAYS that Nuper has going on during
her celebration and check out her Facebook Page too!!!
And be sure to shop PINQUE PEACOCK and
check out all the NEW RELEASES!!!

"Popsicle Stick Bracelet" Project for Angela Holt Designs Sponsored by PK Glitz

Welcome

WELCOME....

AWESOME sponsor we will be creating with.

Today I have a cute DIY Project to share...
I seen this project on my Facebook a few weeks ago
and thought it would be fun to make... so I made
one and I had a lot of fun with it. While thinking
about doing a project I thought one of these would
be tooo cute to glitter up... sooo I did!!! First you start
with a popsicle stick, but I used a Jumbo Stick used
for crafting. You soak them in water overnight and
then boiled them for 30 minutes... this makes them
more plyable to bend and shape. I then shaped it
to the inside of a glass and let it dry for several days...
you can also dry it out by microwaving. I then coated
it with mod podge and then used the PK Glitz "Tropical Rain"  ...
this color is GORGEOUS!!!... After it dried some I
carefully went back over it with more mod podge to
"seal" the glitter. I added some mulberry flowers that
I also added the glitter too... the flowers needed something
and when I added it to the roses it really pulled them and
the bracelet together. Next I added lace, seimans, some
feathers, a beautiful button from Miriam's Crafting
Supplies. I thought this would be cute to give my
mother to wear and have on Mother's Day when
I made it... so that why I added the crown
charm... because Mom's are Queen's!!!
This color is also available in the assortment
I hope you enjoy my project!!

"Popsicle Stick Bracelet" that inspired me to make
another at my YouTube ---> http://youtu.be/9SuD2Hn6JxE
