Embossed Birthday Card
UPDATED 7/25/12
I just got a Cuttlebug machine (an embosser) and I am OBSESSED. I now have completed the trifecta of paper crafting: Cricut, Cuttlebug, and Xyron sticker machine. This is my first card using the Cuttlebug. The green polka dot, pink "happy birthday", and pink inside are all embossed with different templates.
I finally finished the card- I am giving two bottles of Dreaming Tree wine (Dave Matthews' wine) so I decided to include a favorite DMB quote in the card, as well as make wine bottle tags with DMB quotes to tie around the bottle necks.
Flowered Mirror
I saw something on Pinterest where a lady (I assume) had covered the edge of her mirror with twine and crepe paper flowers. I LOVED the idea, and found crepe paper at the dollar store so I couldn't resist. I didn't want it to be too much, since my room is FULL of crafty-crap, so I didn't cover the entire perimeter of the mirror. I am beyond pleased with how it turned out!
New (old) rain boots!
When I was packing up all my crap to move, I came across these gross things; old, yellowed, cracked rain boots. I wanted to chuck them, but decided to keep them and give them a little TLC. It's been monsooning non-stop the last few days, so I went to work. Here's the before and after pics:
I got to take them for a test drive today and splash in some puddles! These are re-done with: glitter, mod podge, and patterned duct tape, which I am now completely obsessed with.
