Crafty Secrets May Linky Party (Part VII)

Crafty Secrets has a montly linky party.  It is at the beginning of every month.  You can enter any new creations made with items from Crafty Secrets (digital and rubber).  I have created cute charms and little gift envelopes from Crafty Secrets Digital Flower Printable.  I think they are adorable.  The charms can be used for pendants or ornaments.

 

 I think this image is so pretty.  I liked it in the square shape.  I think the green of the paper goes with well with this lovely image.

 The seam binding on this charm is from Oohlala Crafts on Ebay.  It is just lovely.  It comes wrapped on a tag. 

 

 I just love the cute bird.  I love to watch the bird that are around this time of year.  I keep a bird feeder in the back yard to encourage the birds to come and feast! 

Thank you for visiting and have a wonderful evening!

Crafty Secrets May Linky Party (Part VI)

I promise that I am almost done!  It is time for the Crafty Secrets May Linky Party.  I have created some cute charms and gift envelopes for the challenge.

 The picture really does not do this one justice.  It is just lovely.  The embossed paper is from K&Company.

 

 The seam binding is from The Pink Petal on Etsy.  I love the combination of orange and copper.  I think I will make this one into a necklace for myself!

Thank you for visiting me tonight!  I hope you have had a wonderful and creative weekend!

Crafty Secrets May Linky Party (Part V)

It is time for the Crafty Secrets May Linky Party.  I really need to start working ahead of time for these challenges.  I did not count on such a busy week.  I have created some cute charms (can be used for ornaments or pendants) and gift envelopes for this month's challenge.  I used the Crafty Secrets Digital Flower Printable.  It has eight beautiful flower pictures and I thought they would be lovely as charms. 

 The seam binding is from The Pink Petal on Etsy.  She has beautiful seam binding.  She hand dyes each order.  You get the finished seam binding within a week.

 

The embossed paper that I used to make the little envelopes is from K&Company.  I hand distressed the flower image and then inked it with Tim Holtz' Gathered Twigs Distress Ink.















I hope you have had a lovely Mother's Day!  Make sure you take time out for yourself this week to create.  Thank you for visiting!

Crafty Secrets May Linky Party (Part IV)

Thank you for joining me for the Crafty Secrets May Linky Party.  You have until 12 a.m. tonight to enter the contest.  I have been so busy this week, that I did not get my entries done until yesterday. 

 

 The embossed paper for the little envelope is from K&Company.  I found colors to match each flower picture.

The seam binding is from The Pink Petal on Etsy.   It is just beautiful.  I love the various shades of purple.

I hope everyone is having a wonderful Mother's Day and using their free time (or, if you are like me, you have no free time today because you had to cook a big meal, dessert, and then clean up the mess) to create!  Enjoy your evening!

Crafty Secrets Challenge (Part II)

It is the time for the Crafty Secrets May Linky Challenge.  I have created some cute little charms and gift envelopes. 

 The seam binding on this charm is beautiful!  I love how it is white with just a touch of green.  I purchased it on Etsy from The Pink Petal. 

 The embossed paper for the envelope is from K&Company.

A few more posts and then I am off to enjoy a busy evening of television watching.  The season finale of Survisor,  Once Upon a Time and Revenge are on tonight.  Also on tonight are Call the Midwife, Mr. Selfridge, and The Client List.  

 

Thank you for visiting and have a wonderful Sunday evening!

Crafty Secrets May Linky Party (Part I)

It is that time again.  It is the Crafty Secrets montly Linky Party!  I have created several items for ths month's challenge.  To enter them in the challenge, I will be doing several posts.  I wanted to do something different, so I created cute charms and gift envelopes from Crafty Secrets Digital - Flowers Printable Sheet - DPS-11.

I took the sheet into Microsoft Word to crop and shrink each picture.  I then printed out two of each each (front and back).  Cut out the images and put them in the memory frames.  I then attached seam binding ribbons to the top of each charm.  They can be used as ornaments or pendants.

I also printed out a full sheet of the Crafty Secrets Digital Flowers.  I cut out each picture, distressed, and inked.  I then made an enveloope for each charm from embossed paper. 

 The embossed paper is from K&Company.

The seam binding on this charm came from Paper Sweeties.
It is gorgeous!

 

Thank you for joining me today and I hope all Mother's have a very special Mother's Day!
