Swedish House Crafts - Guest Spot

Hello, my friends!

I know it hasn't been very long since I was on the DT of Swedish House Crafts.
Today I am back with a Guest DT post for them! 
Maybe they missed me? ;o)

So I have a fun project to share with you!
I have combined a sweet Paper Nest Dolls image,
with some fun Laserowe Love products,
to create this fun hanging.
I think it would be a lovely "Baby Sleeping" sign!

I began with this sweet Hippo stamp from the Paper Nest Dolls - Hippos Stamp Set.

 I stamped it onto watercolour paper, using Ranger Archival Ink.

 I then used a variety of watercolour pencils, along with a water brush, to colour it. 

I set it aside to dry.

Then I moved on to the Laserowe Love - MDF - Bookmark D. 

I thought this would be the perfect base for my little hanging. 

I used a pretty paper from the Laserowe Love - Lily Flower Collection, 

and covered the front and the back of the MDF piece.

 I inked around it with a pretty turquoise ink. 

Next, I took the Laserowe Love - MDF - Frame Banner, using the front frame piece only. 

I covered the front with Stampendous Embossing Ink, 

then sprinkled it with Beach Cruiser Embossing Powder from Sparkle 'N Sprinkle. 

I then heat set it with my heat gun. 

I then repeated the process once more to get a really nice thick coating. 

Then I die-cut the coloured image in a circle to fit behind the embossed frame, 

and adhered it in place.

 I then adhered the framed piece onto the base piece. 

I added some pretty turquoise pearls; five along the top, and three on the bottom. 

Finally, I tied a pretty yellow ribbon into a double-looped bow, 

and added it to the top of the embossed frame.

 I also added another yellow ribbon loop to the top of the base piece to serve as a hanger. 

Now it can be hung on the wall, the door, or even from the door knob.

Swedish House Crafts - Paper Nest Dolls - Princess with Frog

Hello, my friends! 

Today I have a new project share for Swedish House Crafts!

This will be my last DT project after almost two years!

I've made the tough decision to step down.

*sniff*sniff*

I sure did have fun making this one though!

Today I'm featuring the adorable 

Paper Nest Dolls - Princess with Frog Stamp.

This is part of the fantastic Fairytale Collection!

Here's my project:

Isn't that fun?

I used the Laserowe Love - MDF - Crowned Heart B for the background.

I first masked off the crown area, and applied adhesive to the heart.

I adhered the lovely paper from the Laserowe Love - Lily Flower Extra Collection.

Then I masked off the heart section, 

and painted the crown part with my Art Alchemy - Pink Blush and Vintage Rose paints.

I then went around the heart with the Art Alchemy - Lime Peel Paint.

That metallic paint gives a beautiful shimmer!

I colored the adorable image with my Spectrum Noir Markers.

I added Star Dust Stickles to the crowns.

Then I fussy cut the image out.

I took the beautiful - and very intricate - wreath, 

from the Laserowe Love - Chipboards - Yellow Spring set.

I first colored it with the same markers, 

and then dabbed it with the shimmery paints.

When it was dry, I adhered it to the center of the heart.

I then added the colored image in place,

in the center of the wreath.

Finally, I added some Nuvo Crystal drops to the crown, 

and randomly around the heart.

Thanks for stopping by today! 

Big thanks to Suha and the Team for two years of Crafty Fun!

Hello, my friends! 

I'm back with a new project made with products from the Cards and More Shop .

I began with a Dutch Doobadoo Mitten Card Template.
I decorated it with some snowy bits...
and this beautiful Paper Nest Doll called 
"Emma with Snowflake Banner."

The image is added with foam tape.
Then I added lots of Stickles to everything!

Here's a closer look at the sparkle:
