On The Road Again Challenge

For this challenge, I did something I have considered for a while. I saved one of Michaels' McD's Happy Meal containers. Covered it with scrapbook paper. Tied tinted seam binding to the handle. Added some tulips of course cut from Freshly Picked, and the word LITTER from Kates' ABCs. I clipped a grocery bag inside with old fashioned hair clips. I put the hook side of the velcro on the botton so it sticks to the carpet in the car. Now I have a cute little waste bin in the car. ~Enjoy

My Way Challenge

I loved the potted flower card. I had to do a tulip of course! I used my favorite one from Freshly Picked. I used some sewing around the edges, pink twine, dyed seam binding, dyed skittles and toled edges. I hope you like it.

Spring has Sprung

Here is a little card that had many steps. I dyed the Clear Skittles, White Seam Binding, White Prima Flower and White Rick Rack with Ranger Alcohol Inks. The hinges are cut from Fabulous Finds. The burlap "grass" and Floral Wire adds dimension and pizzaz. Hope you like it.

The background paper that didn't really photograph well is Sparkle Celebration Bubbles in Cinnamon Stick by Cloud9Design.

Shier Terror

Here are some t-shirts I made for my nieces Lacey and Melody. My maiden name is Shier and my brother is a Halloween fanatic. Just got back from the West Coast Haunters Convention. The font is from Cricut CartridgeHappy Hauntings I thought it looked like drippy goo and matches the sign he made for his Haunted Maze. I cut it out of freezer paper and painted it with black fabric paint that stays soft. I added glow in the dark glitter to the paint. Enjoy.

All the papers are Heidi Grace The embellishments are hand dyed seam binding, 2 large olive buttons and red and white bakers twine. I think it is a very springy LO.
