Projects for Mel's Craft Boutique

Hello crafty friends

Wow it's 2015 :-) Yay!  I want to start by wishing you all

a wonderful and happy New Year.  I always feel like it's a new and

fresh start for me.   I don't have a New Years resolution yet, except to

try to do the best I can in everything I do.  What's your New Years resolution?

Here are some projects I altered in December.

These are my DT projects for Mel's Craft Boutique.  I altered 3 small

note pads for my grand daughters teachers for Christmas. This is the
video on the note pads. And then I altered a small

wooden box I picked up at Micheals.  Here is the video on the box.  
 My theme was traditional Valentine.

Everything I used is from Melanie's store. 

She has beautiful trims, laces, flowers and buttons, etc.

If you use my code "DaileyScrapper" you can get 10% off

I promise you will be very happy you did.

Take care and thanks for stopping by

Altered Shabby Chic Jar

Hello crafters

I hope those who celebrate Thanksgiving had a wonderful 

day with their love ones, friends and extended families.  I had a great

day and I'm looking forward to the holidays.  

Today I come to share with you my DT project for 

Mel's Craft Boutique.  She wanted something shabby chic.

So I found this cute jar at Target and decided to alter it.

I used about 5 different items from her shop.  And I just love

the way it came out.  I'm not sure if I'll keep it like this or add some

pine cones and holly like this next picture.  

What do you think?  With or without the pine cones?  

Here is my You Tube video 

with all the beautiful items I used from Mel's shop to make my project.

And if you use my code "DaileyScrapper" you will

get 10% off if you purchase 15.$ or more.

*This offer is good while I'm on her Design Team.

I hope you have a wonderful day and thanks for stopping by.

Hugs,

Yvette

Vintage

Hello there

How is everyone doing?  Here in Virginia we are enjoying our

Cicadas.  Yes, every 17 years they come out and they are very loud.  But

very interesting.  I know it's driving a lot of people crazy but I'm actually 

enjoying them.  I mean think about it, every 17 years.  That's pretty cool.  

Oh and did I mention as long as they don't touch me that it.  LOL

Today Stephanie at Whimsical Wednesday challenge

us to create something Vintage.  All she asked was for us to give it a Vintage feel.

I altered a small box using Graphic 45 paper "Le Romantique".

I used gold acrylic paint on the box and then Mod Podge to place the paper down.

I added a couple of flowers and added some gold glitter on the edges. Then I added

a Tim Holts ornate plate.  Inside the plate I added the sentiment "Sweet friend"

from the "Everyday Sentiments" stamp set.

Our Sponsor this week is: Scrapping Memories

The prize is 5 free files of winner's choice.

Thank you for dropping by.  I can't wait to see your Vintage creation.

Have a great day

Yvette

Alter it

Happy Wednesday!

How is everyone?  Good I hope.  Yay!  Half the week is over.  Just a little

more to go.  Well you also know what Wednesday is right?  Yes another

Whimsical Wednesday challenge.  This week we were challenged to alter

something.  I got this clip in a RAK once.  I think it was from my friend

Friday.  I've been wanting to alter it for a while, and this is what I did.

I used the "Fairy Rymes"  6 x 6 paper from Prima.  Just beautiful paper.

The flower was from my stash, and the birdies are from Recollection.

And that's it.  A very simple but cute project.

Our Sponsor this week is V's Sweet Ideas.

The prize is a $10 gift certificate

Well I hope you all have a great rest of the week.

See you soon.

Yvette
