*********************Layers Upon Layers


Do you count 13? Somewhere on the vast internet I saw a similar card made (I apologize to the original card maker, I don't remember where). Paper becomes the highlight of this card embellished with ribbon and Hero Arts Gemstones and sparkles. A favorite Elzybells stamp seemed perfect as the center of this layer upon layer card. Don't look too closely...Copic markers will bleed the stamped image if you use Stazon or other solvent ink. Use Memento Ink!

....................Kitchen Britches


Using cotton yarn I crocheted two dishcloths which were then folded in half to create the legs of the pants. Ribbon was then threaded through the "ankle" of each leg and tied in bows. Threaded through both to make the waist, the ribbon was tied in a bow Of course, I used my spellbinders to make the ovals which highlight the poem which I found somewhere on the internet... A cute "kitchen craft" - a fun gift idea.
