Here I used the laser cut outs:
flourishes, word and hearts.



Once open, the inside displays
a lovely sentiment.



This is the laser tulip cut out.
They come in 
S, M. L.
I painted using acrylic paint and ink.
Tulips
S, M, L
 
Be sure to stop by

I hope you have been inspired as much as I had fun creating this project.

Thanks for stopping by today.
See ya soon.

Tulip Mini Album Cover

I love making mini albums, they are a great way to record an event and have a lot of pictures and the store in one small book.  They also make great gifts.  My family and I recently went to the Wooden Shoe Tulip festival to check out the amazing tulip fields.  I took lots of pictures, some with my girls, lots of just flowers, a great combination for a mini album.  And while I don't always finish the cover first, I did on this one and want to share it with you today.


I cut down the photo of the tulip fields to fit the size of the laser cut Polaroid frame.  Unique Laser Designs pieces are just as beautiful unfinished as they are finished so I left the frame unfinished.  The tulips and butterflies are colored using alcohol ink markers.  

Thanks for looking!

Wishing for spring wreath





My wish...SPRING!
Oh spring, spring...where for art thou spring?

I created something springy and crafty last week, but it really didn't seem to have any effect on Mother Nature, so I'm trying again. This time, I'm making a wreath to grace the door and scare away the winter spirits.  And I'm using ADORABLE spring shapes from Unique Laser Designs!

First, I took a straw wreath and wrapped and wrapped it with this pastel variegated yarn.
Next, I took some canvas flower shapes from Linnie Blooms,  I colored them with gelatos (pink and orange), and spritzed with water so I could spread the color with my fingers.  On some of the flowers I added LOTS of color, some just a bit.  Some are more orange, some are more pink. A flowery hodge-podge!
Next, it's painting time!  I painted these ADORABLE Easter shapes and letters from Unique Laser Designs.



I "marble-ized" the solid egg and bunny by blending gelatos over the dried acrylic paint and then splattered the letters with pink paint after covering them with a few thin coats of Distress Stain Picket Fence.



This is my ode to spring.  Mother Nature are you listening this time?


I couldn't stop playing with these adorable shapes, so I'm tucking in a few more ideas if you get a few minutes to play.
