Lovin the RV Life...

I think its so fun to make something special for someone and when you find

that perfect paper or picture to do it, the whole thing turns out wonderful.  I 

found a really cute RV photo in the Summertime Vintage Booklet.  I loved that

adorable couple with the vintage RV and i new i had to make a cute

decoration for a friends remodel project. 

For my project i just used the top photos in the journal booklet

of the Guide to paridise and the RV photo.  I mixed them with some

papers that i printed from the Vintage Patterns CD and cut the edges

with a border punch i had in my stash.  The doilies are from Spellbinders

and the flowers and ribbon are from Really Reasonable Ribbon.com.

And the chipboard heart you can see here with lots of other fun things

that you can use to make pretty home decor for your house too.  I traced the

heart on kraft paper and cut that out and then sanded the edges of the heart

and then inked all around it.  I think it makes the photos pop really nice!

That's all for today and thanks for stopping over.  If you ever have

a question about something be sure and leave me a comment and i 

would be happy to try and answer it for you... Have a great day!

New RR Ribbon Challenge for July

We have a new challenge up on the Really Reasonable Ribbon blog using the

new July Ribbon Collection with lots of beautiful black and white ribbons.

The challenge is to make anything you like and just add one color to it.

So for my project i decided to use this letter that i have had around for

awhile to use up on the wall with some photos frames.  I decided to paint

it black to match the frames and then i cut out a pattern for the papers and 

glued them inside so that it would have a black frame and pop too.

All the papers are from Crafty Secrets and i printed out what i needed for it

and it was really easy and the patterns went with the ribbons perfectly.

The ribbons are all from the July Ribbon Club Collection and just a few flowers for

my one color that i had in my stash of things.  The large ribbon in the back is

May Arts Black Webbing and i really like the extra texture that it adds to the other

ribbons and flowers in the cluster. And i also used a punch on the top and below

the band in the center for just a little bit more design.  And now it's ready to put

up with my photo college and i have one more project ticked off my list :)

Thanks so much for stopping over and don't forget to create something

fun for our challenge for a chance to win some of these gorgeous ribbons.

Have a wonderful day....Teresa
