Hi everyone! We're half way through and headed to the weekend. Yay!
I had an extra band aid tin from
All That Scraps and decided to alter one for my DD. She was trying to get one out this morning before school and the cardboard box the band aids normally come in was falling apart. Poor thing! So I did this in her fave colors of baby blue and brown and used Nurse Anya from
The Greeting Farm. She kind of looks old school, doesn't she? I think it's her retro nurse outfit which gives her a classic feel. So what's on her tray? Orange juice and a powdered donut hole. haha!
I got the DP from Michaels and thought the circles and polka dots were fun. The ribbon pieces were random ones that I used to match the DP. And wouldn't you know, it got a smile out of DD when she came home from school. :D Oh, and it matches my vase and table runner. HAHA!
I am finally done with my ATC's for KelliJo's swap on SCS. phew! This was stressful as so many of the girls in the swap are Dirty Dozen Alumni and fabulous DT members. I knew I had to think out of the box and create art with these. I used the sentiment and butterfly out of the m
ini set "Bug Me Anytime"from Jessica's
There She Goes store. (Note: I have to say that I am not the best when it comes to using photopolymer stamps. However, Jessica's line is so detailed and well etched that they are like using rubber!)
Using my scalloped SU punch, I created the flower, then ran brown cardstock through my CB with the swiss dots folder for the centers. (Thanks for the idea Tammy!) I decided to turn the butterfly into a monarch, which meant coloring in his sweet face so he could turn towards the flower. :( Sorry Mr. Butterfly. I did lift his wings up for flight, then attached his main body area with adhesive on to the flower petals. I made some clouds by freehand so there would be more dimension for the background. These are finally going in the mail tomorrow - closure!
Have a wonderful Wednesday everyone!
*Love and Aloha*
