12x12 Mother's Day Layout designed by Brigitte

Hello Beauties,

Awhile ago Doreen and I asked Brigitte to be a guest designer for the store. Brigitte is an awesome crafter and we were so happy that she said yes! So I sent her the Webster Pages Country Estate papers and a few other Webster items and she made a 12x12 layout for Mother's Day. Here is the video....


Here is the link to Brigitte's YT channel
Show Brigitte some love and leave her a comment and subscribe to her channel.
Thank you Brigitte♥
Have a great day full of crafting everyone!

Window Shadow Box

Hello Beauties!
I have designed a new template! This window is so versatile. You can decorate this in so many different ways. You can put one picture or four pictures in the window. Also you can make it so you are looking in like I did or leave the shutters off and add curtains so it is like looking out the window. Now I decided to make my window in a shabby chic style. What I did to get this look is first paint the window brown. Then add crackle medium and let that dry ( I cheated and dried it with my heat gun) and lastly I painted it with vintage white craft paint. After the window was dry, I used Tim Holtz distress inks in Weathered wood and vintage photo. Just lightly distress with a distress tool. The flowers I used on the shutters are from Wild Orchid Crafts and I colored them with Lindy's. Now inside the window I used the Country Estate paper from Webster Pages ( available in the store). I also used a book page that I distressed with Tattered Rose, Vintage photo and Old Paper distress inks. The heart charm I made with the vellum sheet from the Country Estate collection and a metal heart frame that I used gold rub and buff on it. I used half of a Frogfeatheres flower and 3 buttons. The lace I used for the valance I tea dyed and the girl image is from Google Images. I saw the image and thought she was so sweet and she looked like she was daydreaming! Here are a few more pictures....
I just love how the window turned out! If you want to make one just click on the tab above that reads " Template" and you can purchase this template.  Also the measurements are listed in the store underneath the pictures.
Have a great week!

Mini Hatbox Template available for purchase

Hello Beauties!

I have a new template available for purchase! The mini hatbox template is a very versatile template. You can stack them and glue them together to look like a wedding cake.

Great for those of you getting married, you can use them for wedding favors!
Also they are great for just plain storage in your craft room, bathroom, and living room ( and very decorative). I am going to make up a few sets for my daughter for her bedroom so she can store all her little collectables in them. 














Oh, and did I tell you that they nest??? Well they do! I have proof!














So many possibilities! If you would like to purchase this template, just click on the tab above that says "Templates".
I am working on an amazing new template right now and I will be adding it to the store soon, so stay tuned:)
Have an awesome creative day!

OLLVT traveling 10 item RAK

Hello Beauties,
Doreen and I are starting a traveling RAK. Here is the skinny on it, LOL!
1. You can only put 10 items in the RAK ( 6 pattern papers will count as 1 item)
2. You have to put your name in the journal with your YT name when you receive it
3. Make sure the journal is in the RAK you are sending
4. Do a video of the RAK you received and link it to Doreen's video ( her YT channel is mybedazzledtreasures) Make sure you title the video "OLLVT Traveling 10 item RAK"
Let's try to keep this RAK going! We would like to see where in the world the RAK has been.
So watch out you may get a random RAK from someone! Here is the link to the video Doreen did http://youtu.be/3fRO-yIIddM

Hugs to you all,
Patti
