Keep it Simple: Shape Up Challenge

This weeks Keep it Simple Challenge is sponsored by me!! and look at the fab prize I am offering up.

I am sponsoring this prize in memory of both my Grandparents who sadly both passed on to cancer within the last 15 months.

My project for this challenge: Shape Up, is a little christmas tree ornament. Made in printed vellum from stash (no idea who made it, it was a 12x12 sheet) Poked through holes following the pattern and then filled it with pot-pourri. Smells divine and will be hanging on my tree this year.The pattern for this is from PaperTrey inc and available HERE.

Keep it Simple Challenge 7 - Seeing Stars

Well its Sunday morning so that means its time for Keep it Simple!! This weeks challenge is ''Seeing Stars'' and what a fab challenge too especially so close to christmas.

I went with a traditional scene but slightly modern being a collage stamp. Decoupaged it up in two places and made my own background with book page and distress ink, as the challenge says ''keep it simple''. I am also entering this into the fab Winter Wonderland challenge which is ''Jesus is the reason for the season''

Keep it Simple Challenge 4 - Bling it

This item is ⓒClare Horner. If you wish to make this yourself I am happy for you to do that as long as credit is linked back if published. Thanks.

This weeks challenge over at Keep it Simple is ''Bling it''. This was actually a really hard challenge for me as I am not very comfy with ''Bling'' and either go over the top or not at all. So for my Design Team project I decided I would try go a subtle as possible and make a very simple pair of earrings. Punched out a piece of paper with the Martha Stewart daisy punch drew it out onto shrink plastic then cut it out, shrank it and this was the hard part, one went totally wrong and broke, so if you choose to do this then be careful. For the bling I have added some Papermania flat backed gems. I am real happy with the result.
