make a splash:

Just in case you missed it, here’s the link.

I was a guest flyer over at Kite Tails Design

I got to play with the Blue Sky Day Collection

 

This was a super simple banner.

I started with my Silhouette Cameo cutting the pennants, and letters.

And then I just started layering to give depth for the overall look.

I used some doilies as the base and viola I had this super cute summer banner

Wouldn’t this be super cute for a summer pool party.

 

 

 

I saw this VW bus in El Segundo back in June. It was totally photo worthy, plus I have a few guys in my life that adores them!

 

So I snapped away. I love the feel of “Warm Breeze” the wavy paper I used. “Warm Breeze” has such a groovy feel about it; I knew it would lend some funk to this LO.

With a little mix of this and that I captured one VW bus I would love to have.

blog hop:

Paper Issues & Freckled Fawn

bring you

 

Wishy washi, stuck on you, caught on tape, sticky situation

What ever you want to call it, it’s from Japan and we are all crazy about it!

Seriously I have enough for a lifetime and I still keep buying it.

I made a little home décor for this hop. A bit out of my comfort zone, and

I LOVE IT!

Its very me now just in case you cant read it, it says SuperCaliFragalisticExpialaDopeShit!

Wow that’s a mouth full! I saw this tank on pinterest and fell in love.

I knew I wanted this to be inspiration for a project so I pinned it.

I wanted to do something out of the box for this

washi project and this is what I came up with.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Supplies used: Cardstock, Washi Tape from Freckled Fawn & Paper Issues,

Walnut Colored Spray Paint, Silhouette Cameo, White Paint Pen, Ikea Frame, Snug Hug, and button/badge

 

 

So I started out with a 9x9 piece of chipboard and covered it with various washi tape.

I designed “SuperCali” in the Silhouette program and then cut it out onto a piece of cardstock.

I then taped the cardstock stencil to the covered chipboard piece and spray-painted.

After it dried I went over the edges with a white paint pen.

Slipped my art in the frame,

tied a snug hug bow and added a pin from this adorable etsy shop!

Viola home made art!
