There are no words to express how touched I am by all the sweet and encouraging emails and comments I have received over the last few days. Wow. I wish I could personally thank each of you.
I thought I would show you some cards today made with Sizzix's Triple Circle Flip-its die set , by Stephanie Barnard. I love all the Flip-its dies , especially with their wonderfully handy layer dies that they come with them, and this Triple Circle Flip-its is a lot of fun to decorate. This card was really easy to make into traffic lights, along with the Sizzix Framelits Dies & Stamp -Cars set. I decorated this card with stamps and dies from The Stamps of Life . This card was decorated with a Sizzix tag , and Sizzix stamp . And finally, I decorated this card with snowman elements from these stamps and die sets from The Stamps of Life, and the tag and sentiment stamps from this set . Some of the products used:
Hello! I've been rearranging up a storm, I blame the upcoming fall season. :) Anyway, I wanted to give you a peek of my new reading corner in the living room. Have a great weekend! What are you up to? Follow along between posts on Instagram!
Hey there! It's Friday! Without a doubt, the best day of the week, yes? A few weeks ago, I picked up this chair at a yard sale for 8 bucks. It was marked $10, but I did a little bargaining...... :) I don't know why, but I was really drawn to it. Then when I got it home, I had no idea what I wanted to do with it, so, it sat outside, neglected, for a couple weeks. And then finally, I had an idea. Because I sometimes get ahead of myself, I painted it white BEFORE removing all the fabric. I knew I wanted it white, so, I thought if I got that done, I could figure out what direction I wanted to go in for the rest of the chair. Because the wood was so old and porous, it sucked up the white spray paint like crazy, so it took A LOT of coats before it finally looked good. THEN, I completely stripped the chair to find the upholstery webbing in pretty sad shape. So, I removed all of it and replaced it with new jute webbing, available at any fabric store....
