I'm an Independent Stampin' Up! Demonstrator in Wilmington, Delaware. I've been stampin' under the supervision of my cat Onyx since 2008.
My friend’s daughter had her 6th birthday on Saturday, and I made her this fabulous princess mirror as part of her present. I’m not sure she was that excited about it, but her mom and aunt were both ready to steal it from her, and her younger sister spent hours yesterday “cleaning” it with a Barbie tattoo applicator “gun”.
The crown is one of the new Decor Elements that were released a couple weeks ago. I love using Decor Elements. I’ve used them to decorate my Inspiration Board (which you can see in the mirror) and make a Welcome sign for my foyer. They are a great way to add stylish accents to your home. So far I’ve only used them on movable pieces, but they work great on walls too. I haven’t made that leap yet, but I have my eye on Tree, Thoughts and Prayers for my bedroom.
Back to the mirror! I purchased the mirror from Target, and I embellished it with some non-SU! rhinestones. To see how I applied the image, check out the video below for SU!’s demonstration of how to apply Decor Elements. The only thing I’d add, is that when applying to glass, the image sticks pretty quickly (unlike in the video where she can remove the image if it isn’t positioned right).
I recently made this Welcome Sign from Stampin’ Up!’s new Decor Elements line of vinyl wall art. I was inspired by this example.
It was so simple to do. I cut 4 pieces of DSP and glued them together. Then I applied the Decor Element to the glass of the frame – this video shows how easy it is to do!
I assembled the whole thing and realized that it needed something extra. So I added two ornaments I made from the On Board Trinkets from the Holiday Mini Catalog. Doesn’t it look great? I can’t wait to update it for the seasons…so easy to do…just change the DSP and embellishments. (more…)
Welcome to my blog! Here I’m going to focus on my creative endeavors…my inspirations, my successes and my failures. Most posts will be about paper crafts (cards, gifts, scrapbooks, etc) but who knows, if I’m particularly proud of something I’ve photographed or cooked or built…that may show up too.
