Glue Dots Altered Art Projects and NEW Dots!

Hi everyone! (: Today I am sharing a couple of projects using some new Glue Dots products. They are so handy and I am so glad they came out with these.
Tissue Paper Flowers project:

For this Flower frame I used the 2" XXL Glue Dots. The background stamp is from Hero Arts Newpaper background and the twine is from The Twinery.

Project Instructions:

- Cut white cardstock to desired size for your frame.

- Stamp background with your choice of ink.

- Mist with Tattered Angels Snowflake mist.

- Adhere twine stem and leaves with Micro Glue Dots.

- Stamp sentiment on background.

- Cut a piece of tissue paper about 1ft long and fold in half.

- Scrunch

- Using the 2" XXL Glue Dot roll the folded tissue paper in a circle around the dot while folding it until you cover the whole dot.

-Adhere to your background.

- You can spritz your flowers with mist like I did to give them shine.

- Adhere a button to the center if desired.

.........

Wool Felt Flowers project:

For this project I used the 1" XL Glue Dots. The background stamp is the same I used for the project above, the felt is from Papertrey Ink, twine is from The Twinery, flower die and cloud die is from My Favorite Things and the sentiment is from Paper Smooches.

Project Instructions:

- Cut white cardstock to the shape for your frame and stamp with the background stamp.

- I spritzed the background with Studio Calico Mister Huey misters.

- Cut your choice of colored felt or you can use cardstock and die cut flowers and cloud.

- Adhere twine stem and leaves with Micro Glue Dots.

- Roll your flower until you get your desired look then adhere with the 1" XL Glue Dots.

-Adhere flowers to background. 

- Stamp sentiment to bg.

Enjoy! (:

The Twinery Christmas Crafts!

Hi everyone! Today is my day over at The Twinery blog!I have created some super fun Christmas projects!
For my first project I did this super fun birdhouse ornament for my Christmas tree.

On here I added some Marschino twine from The Twinery to the roof. The added detail makes it so cute!

I painted the house with some Plaid acrylic paint and added stamps designed by me for The Crafts Meow and some stamps from Paper Smooches. I cant wait to make more!

Next I did a Christmas collage. I have had this collage frame forever and finally took the time to use it.

For this I added some Marschino twine and Peapod twine from The Twinery!

And for the rest of the details I added stamps designed by me for The Crafts Meow and some stamps from Lawn Fawn and Paper Smooches. I colored them with Copic Markers. The paper is Holly Jolly Christmas by Echo Park. LOVE it!

Thanks for letting me share my projects with you today! Be sure to check out my post on the Twinery Blog HERE!

:) :) :) Have a great week!!

LOTS of things to share!!!

Hi everyone! Hope you had a fabulous weekend!! Mine was filled with lots of sleeping and pain pills. My back went out again when I slipped on wet leaves after the rain this weekend. I slept my life away this weekend trying to heal myself. Today I felt much better and was able to get this post done and a couple of extra goodies. My studio makes me so happy so I love to just go in and sit and read a magazine or book and hang out. I have to share more pictures, I have done LOTS more to it and added lots of great decorations and projects. So I will stop now, lol, but I want to share what I should have shared already. 
First, is a card I did for the Handmade Holidays Blog Hop with Clearsnap, The Twinery and more. I am so sad I had to miss it because I was out thanks to my injury. I really just cant catch a break with my back. I hope going back for another shot in my other side will fix everything. The shot I already had in my back is helping a bit but when I tweaked it yesterday it made it really sore. So needless to say I missed the hop but I still want to share my project with you.

I used some of these fun Design Adhesives from Clearsnap and some marschino twine from The Twinery. The design adhesives are great to use with the Clearsnap glitter. I had fun playing. I also sprayed on some SmoochSpritz for the background. You should check them out, they are great fun!

....

Next I did two cards for the current IPPITY CHALLENGE

The challenge was to make a MINI creation - my cards are 4x3.5"

I used the super cute Quotes a'la Happy by Ippity :) LOVE this ippity set! And I paired it with A Bit of Burlap ippity set. :) I colored the jar with Copics, was fun to color this stamp.

I used the You Deserve set by Ippity - from my Ippity chick - Jen Johns, be sure to check her Ippity sets out!! Shes great! I colored this with Copics and used a gel pen for the center.

....

Next I did a card for the current UNITY CHALLENGE - Autumn Harvest!

On my card I used the super cute stamp - Love Build a Home. One of my fav stamps! I did it with an autumn theme and paired it with some stamps from Quotes a'la Happy by Ippity.

I did another card with this stamp too, just for fun since I had the stamp out :)

....

Thanks for letting me share my projects with you today! I appreciate you stopping by to visit!

Have a wonderful week!!

Hugs! :) :) :)
