New TIOT challenge

Its time for another challenge at Try it on Tuesday and this fortnights theme is "Hearts". Its perfect timing with Valentines day just around the corner. Here is my take on the challenge. I wanted to make a hat but time permitting I went with a layout instead. Maybe I will get to the hat today.  I used patterned paper(Prima), Paint(Dylusions), Crackle(TH), Tickets(TH), blue tule, charms and heart stickers(Basic Grey) and twine. The title is hand cut from paper. I used the Tule to create a sort of Valance at the top of the page by sewing and pulling up the tule in a few places then trimming with a bow. Don't know why I did it that way just felt like playing with it.   

Now if you head on over to the Try it on Tuesday blog you can see some more great inspiration from my teamies and enter your project. 

On another note I seem to have been very busy lately but I really cannot say with what. Time just seems to be flying by and I never have enough time to get everything done. I did manage to finally sort through my craft room again. It seems to have become a dumping ground for anything that needed to disappear quick over the holidays. I also managed to sort through and clean out my daughters crafting mess. What a job that was. It was nice to finally get back into an organized and tidy craft room this week. Well I think I will be off to do a bit of crafting now. I am really wanting to make another hat. Will post if I get it done later. 

thanks for stopping in and have a wonderful day. Angela

New Challenge at Try it on Tuesday

Its time for another challenge at Try it on Tuesday and this fortnights theme is "Lets get Stitchy" and it can be real or Faux stitching. I chose to use Faux stitching in my layout.


I used faux drawn stitching on the canvas accents along with some faux stitching using staples.

Now if you head on over to the Try it on Tuesday blog you can see some fabulous inspiration from the rest of the team as well as link up your entry so we can stop by. 

Now off to finish some more work. Thanks for stopping in and have a great day. Angela
