So what did I make with my new power tool??

Pin It

In my last post I showed you my new power tool and I promised to show you what I created with it!

I've been looking around for paper storage for my 12 x 12 sheets.
There are so many choices and I've been umming and aaahhing about what to choose.... vertical... horizontal......ect.

I've been quite envious of the storage BFF had custom made for her a few years ago -you can get a glimpse here.
So everything I've looked at since then just hasn't compared and I can't find anything like it in the stores.

So I decided to create my own!!!

Here I am hard at work using the new jigsaw, cutting my side panel to size.

Notice my work safety approved shoes!!!

Here are my draws almost completed.... just needing a good paint

And here they are in there new home all painted and filled with paper.




So it was my first go at making anything like this and there are few little quirky characteristics to it that I love and hate - but I'm proud as punch to have made this from scratch and it works!!!!

My very first power tool!!

Pin It

Yep that's right I recently bought my very first power tool- insert little squeal of excitement!

It was so much fun to use!!!

You'll never guess what I created with this bad boy................ and yes it is craft related



I'll pop back soon with pictures :)

Paper Players and Embellish Magazine

Pin It

Tonight I had a little bit of time to whip up a quick card.

I used the Paper Players sketch #60 and the colour inspiration from Embellish Magazine - Red, Green, Cream and Kraft- WITH the added challenge of embossed flowers.

You can see here I've got two types of embossed flowers, the back ground has been embossed using an impression plate and the green flowers have been embossed with powder!




I've used:
Paper -Naturals Ivory and Kraft
Ink - Real Red
Stamp Set - Friends never fade, Tiny tags and Mega mixed messages from PTI
Other: Green Embossing powder, Twine, Half and Half die and In Bloom impression plate both from PTI

Here is the sketch


Here is the colour pallet
WooHoo it's nearly the weekend!!!
XOXOXOXO
