Fun Flowers & Tasteful Trim Big Shot Die

Busy getting ready for craft fairs and upcoming classes with all the new items from the Stampin' Up! 2011-12 Catalog .....

This pin uses the new Timeless Portrait Fabric withTasteful Trim Die and I combined it with some shrink plastic Fun Flowers flowers similar to the ones made earlier for charms. Adding a bling to center.

No Sew Fabric Flower Pin

This was the gift I gave to friends at Baltimore Regional. It was idea inspired after seeing flowers made from cutting and heating satin ribbon. I was wondering what to do with my fabric with customers - I don't sew - so I was really happy with results and that it is easy enough for customers to do, selling them on maybe wanting to purchase fabric and die. It will be a class project coming soon.

Shadowbox page - Butterflies

Here is my adaptation of a page I saw done by Debi on Stampin Connection (she said she CASE'D Mary Jo but I couldnt find the sample she cased from). (I'll edit picture in morning when I can get a clean picture without glare/shadow) I used CURRENT merchandise - sets are the Dreams du Jour and Flores Suaves and all the card stock colors are from new collections. ....and because the gals I have coming to make this tomorrow will be doing some embossing I thought I'd take some of my new fabric and make them each a small hand made embossing buddy .... Used the scallop square die but the one I made with scallops facing out didnt turn out as well as when just turned them to inside (in which case a plain square works just fine.

Silk Scarves

Two out of four ain't bad .... I'm out of practice doing these so took me awhile to get it to stage I was pleased with results ..... will put the other two into my "oops" bin at reduced price. Have 3 blank ones left to play with.
