Love you my friend

Hello and welcome!

There are so many reasons and ways to tell your friends that they are loved. This is adorable image called ‘Springtime‘ from All Dressed Up Stamps is perfect for the occasion.

The image is gorgeous as drawn, however I removed the flowers and bunny around her feet to create a simpler look.

I printed this sweet image on X-Press It Blending Card and colored it with the following markers:

~Copics~
Skin: E04, E11, E21, E00, E000, E0000, R20, R30, R00
Hair: E57, E55, E53, E51
Dress: YR23, Y15, Y11, Y00, White Gel Pen
Greens: G20, G21, G24, YG03
Basket: E34, E31, E30

I decided it was time to get out the sewing machine and add a little stitching to some of the layers. The dies are from Poppy Stamps and My Favorite Things. The embossing folder is from Park Lane.

As always, you can find an abundance of gorgeous inspiration images for sale here.

Bunny Wrist Purse

Hello crafty peeps!

Today is another sewing project from craft dies.

For my design team project for C.C. Designs I decided to make little wrist purses for my granddaughters.  This little purse features the super cute Make A Bunny die set, and is for my granddaughter Adeline.

I took a few design elements from a pattern, but adjusted the rest to what I thought would be easier for smaller children.

I ironed Heat and Bond to the back side of the quilting fabric, and then using the die the same way you would paper, I sent it through my die cutting machine.  Heat and Bond is a double sided adhesive so it worked perfectly the iron all the pieces together.  Once all the pieces were ironed on I used embroidery floss and a fine needle to stitch the pieces to the white backing using the blanket stitch.
