It will be her gift for their 5th wedding anniversary. I had so much fun making this lovely set. I hope that she enjoys it as well.<br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiBKnLuqvI3tHfDSxDTfR9g_CdF5a4XbGETWhPTLlsgVnZH4j2vAKK2w98V0ooT6qEIYChTBOHk473X0Zt0zNH4I6jtOr7D2Eo_q2dTX-nBbx8FhgcLRERXVu4AyJoJWIcKjJTZyNT0eDoy/s1600/047.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; width: 400px; height: 300px; text-align: center; display: block; cursor: pointer;" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5732776603289397634" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiBKnLuqvI3tHfDSxDTfR9g_CdF5a4XbGETWhPTLlsgVnZH4j2vAKK2w98V0ooT6qEIYChTBOHk473X0Zt0zNH4I6jtOr7D2Eo_q2dTX-nBbx8FhgcLRERXVu4AyJoJWIcKjJTZyNT0eDoy/s400/047.JPG" /></a>This is a wooden photo frame that I got at Wal Mart for 97 cents! I covered it in papers to match the paper bag mini album. I made all of those lovely roses. The little curly tendrils are just 20 gauge wire that I covered with green floral tape and then I wound them around a bamboo skewer.<br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh-oDinSe3X5i2DlpJv3qq3wy8Kg-ktWQXBUzvQ_rza8DQDWUPPyoMpgrztSEy2LT1uqfPxLNOHRI-zC4mL0nXBkAVIWSk7eiExKdqc61kEJwoaqeaoY2Gz2o44oYJsuM_qG7oP2sqUKRYD/s1600/037.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; width: 400px; height: 300px; text-align: center; display: block; cursor: pointer;" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5732776361463634018" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh-oDinSe3X5i2DlpJv3qq3wy8Kg-ktWQXBUzvQ_rza8DQDWUPPyoMpgrztSEy2LT1uqfPxLNOHRI-zC4mL0nXBkAVIWSk7eiExKdqc61kEJwoaqeaoY2Gz2o44oYJsuM_qG7oP2sqUKRYD/s400/037.JPG" /></a>This cute little heart shaped box was from Oriental Trading Company. It came in a set of a dozen assorted shapes. I chose the heart for obvious reasons. I made all of the roses and attached them with Tacky Glue. I just love that glue! I painted the edge of the lid with Picket Fence Crackle Paint because it is also used on the fence on the photo frame and throughout the paper bag mini album. I also used Walnut Stain Distress Ink to give it a more vintage feel. Thanks for taking a peek at my creations!<br /><div></div></div></div>Amy :~Dhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04175909532630906927noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1564846179164072195.post-76584893518033464942012-04-13T11:26:00.003-07:002012-04-13T11:38:37.215-07:00Handmade Gift Set<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh23BzE9QgcG-fxbfcS3EQFUejLz1XoqtrvkybDOe_PhmLEcIy5IsCzxvHXOZ6bYgT23fzcx2EDJtF-NXqBe5rZ8cFAlymRluutWPddrxbAWHPKLCVdZS0BgcIRpGHwsJoqtA6rFTLuu-QY/s1600/Mom%2527s+Christmas+frame%252C+candle+and+box.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; width: 400px; height: 300px; text-align: center; display: block; cursor: pointer;" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5730953854080221394" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh23BzE9QgcG-fxbfcS3EQFUejLz1XoqtrvkybDOe_PhmLEcIy5IsCzxvHXOZ6bYgT23fzcx2EDJtF-NXqBe5rZ8cFAlymRluutWPddrxbAWHPKLCVdZS0BgcIRpGHwsJoqtA6rFTLuu-QY/s400/Mom%2527s+Christmas+frame%252C+candle+and+box.jpg" /></a>I made this lovely set as a gift for my mom for Christmas. There is a lovely photo frame that is covered in pretty paper with a coordinating paper used in the opening of the frame, a paper mache box that is covered in the same coordinating papers, and a handmade candle that also coordinates.<br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjQFnn9mRYD4S12PNuZZv_HuXy7hj-igZN8snEcyyLxkQu6tj61m3sbIn4YG1VGVijjmhpn2WZ5fCQRG6DxSmU_Wx90xYpUk9XnDavrjonME_h7yhyphenhyphenAdrxBujZHutmkdZG_VeF7UW1cuzf7/s1600/Mom%2527s+photo+frame.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; width: 400px; height: 300px; text-align: center; display: block; cursor: pointer;" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5730953844873594242" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjQFnn9mRYD4S12PNuZZv_HuXy7hj-igZN8snEcyyLxkQu6tj61m3sbIn4YG1VGVijjmhpn2WZ5fCQRG6DxSmU_Wx90xYpUk9XnDavrjonME_h7yhyphenhyphenAdrxBujZHutmkdZG_VeF7UW1cuzf7/s400/Mom%2527s+photo+frame.jpg" /></a>I chose my papers and spread Tacky Glue thinly, using an artist's knife to spread the adhesive. I then lined my paper up and smoothed it out over the frame and adhesive. I cut an "X" in the opening of the frame with my craft knife and folded each side back and adhered it to the back of the frame. I then inked all of the edges with Walnut Stain Distress Ink. I used Prima pearls. All of the roses are handmade in graduating sizes. The copper embellishment is by K & Company.<br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi566FFGktLDodDKZG9utVBqMlZIWaUoQQgouiQRpwCYap-m7JlgNr9AMLWj8bRUGRrgRc1sEn_QCb18pI2LftGWgLdQoIx8ZCexaSuxs4KViDK6f8GcVYNsstOjpo4r9tl7hDmwUS7C8z8/s1600/mom%2527s+box+closeup.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; width: 400px; height: 300px; text-align: center; display: block; cursor: pointer;" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5730953842908159250" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi566FFGktLDodDKZG9utVBqMlZIWaUoQQgouiQRpwCYap-m7JlgNr9AMLWj8bRUGRrgRc1sEn_QCb18pI2LftGWgLdQoIx8ZCexaSuxs4KViDK6f8GcVYNsstOjpo4r9tl7hDmwUS7C8z8/s400/mom%2527s+box+closeup.jpg" /></a>The paper mache box was covered in much the same manner as the frame, using Tacky Glue. I used a sandpaper block to "sand" away the excessive paper on the edges of the box. I then inked the edges with Walnut Stain Distress Ink. I again used Prima Pearls and the flowers are handmade.<br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg8hZs_DYdwvw_JmuflGJmWu8t6fxZkybfmysVNvrvnam10cRo4_59VdileIC5NiSpCTuAW_rlapEyWGa2OjJO0YNb8B4KqI0fT2iydTf6hTYr9sTI-2GSFWwWQCN38_RuVoqoOUZGKv4lT/s1600/mom%2527s+candle.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; width: 360px; height: 400px; text-align: center; display: block; cursor: pointer;" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5730953582883817138" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg8hZs_DYdwvw_JmuflGJmWu8t6fxZkybfmysVNvrvnam10cRo4_59VdileIC5NiSpCTuAW_rlapEyWGa2OjJO0YNb8B4KqI0fT2iydTf6hTYr9sTI-2GSFWwWQCN38_RuVoqoOUZGKv4lT/s400/mom%2527s+candle.jpg" /></a>The candle is hadnpoured and scented by me. I used the same coordinating papers cut in a strip to go around the jar. I chose to use a section of the paper that said "special moments" rather than writing on it or using alphabet stickers or other embellishments. I wanted to keep it relativley simple. I inked the edges of the paper using Walnut Stain Distress Ink and added some flatback pearls to finish it off. My mother adores her gift set. She refuses to burn the candle, though.<br /><div></div></div></div></div>Amy :~Dhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04175909532630906927noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1564846179164072195.post-8111610169402463592012-04-03T19:02:00.002-07:002012-04-03T19:11:01.918-07:00Beautiful Inside and Out<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgStAfyp4odnSDc1E4im7oItmbB_-6TA-rZLlH2gCKyYNACa52ZYscw1LaTUSDg28PQpa69qZJHXOvTcCmSlLkh4aUgESBGpZUOLG9lDa_MX9roQwK2xEC1YS6bA8YdlPtwDXTf-gsBJReI/s1600/Beautiful+Inside+and+Out.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; width: 399px; height: 400px; text-align: center; display: block; cursor: pointer;" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5727360315382092434" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgStAfyp4odnSDc1E4im7oItmbB_-6TA-rZLlH2gCKyYNACa52ZYscw1LaTUSDg28PQpa69qZJHXOvTcCmSlLkh4aUgESBGpZUOLG9lDa_MX9roQwK2xEC1YS6bA8YdlPtwDXTf-gsBJReI/s400/Beautiful+Inside+and+Out.jpg" /></a>This is my oldest daughter, Briana. She is soon to be 16! Where has the time gone? I took this photo of her last year and just had to scrap it when I saw these lovely papers that matched it so perfectly. I made the "bling" using transparency film and pearlized fabric paint. It is time consuming, but it is less expensive than the real stuff. Also, you can find the fabric paint in lots of colors, so there is sure to be one to match your layout perfectly. I bought a bunch of those plain stick pins from an online store a while back. I used some beads from my stash to make that stick pin. The flowers are made using the retro flower punch. I find that I use it a lot. You can make so many different flowers using that one style of flower punch. There's that Martha Stewart butterfly punch again...can you tell that I really like it? I had that great black lace in my stash. I thin I got it at Wal Mart for next to nothing...really, there were like 3 yards or so for $1. I just love a great deal! Thanks for taking a peak at my creation!<br /><div></div>Amy :~Dhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04175909532630906927noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1564846179164072195.post-71246589548841428732012-04-03T18:53:00.003-07:002012-04-03T19:01:28.327-07:00Untitled Layout<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhn_W66lNb3EdVLEGO5Iqq7amK2mGXnZg4XKODgc_uRQMYfUg9ozDw4hhNJDZc6ggCfz32H_FabvvkKYw8XyKpgJWcliVtsiHoha73RGcTQebBTSVotJh6sLFaLiQyp5o40YrapvNhZDRkV/s1600/Hannah+layout.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; width: 398px; height: 400px; text-align: center; display: block; cursor: pointer;" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5727357991378511954" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhn_W66lNb3EdVLEGO5Iqq7amK2mGXnZg4XKODgc_uRQMYfUg9ozDw4hhNJDZc6ggCfz32H_FabvvkKYw8XyKpgJWcliVtsiHoha73RGcTQebBTSVotJh6sLFaLiQyp5o40YrapvNhZDRkV/s400/Hannah+layout.jpg" /></a><br />This little sweetie is my niece, Hannah. I made this beautiful layout to give to my sister-in-law for her birthday. Again, I used the beautiful Pink Paislee Garden Butterfly papers. I usually make all of my embellishments, but I did use a Prima Say it in Pearls piece on this from my stash. I've had it for a while...it's probably been discontinued, lol! I cut it into smaller pieces to fit in the spaces that needed a little extra "something". All of the flowers are handmade. I used a Tim Holtz birdcage chipboard piece and painted it with copper metallic paint. Once the paint was dry, I then covered it in Crackle Accents. I used several of Martha Stewart punches (dove, classic butterfly, and rose leaf). I certainly hope that she likes it!

This is to be a 5th year wedding anniversary gift for his wife. I am also going to make a matching photo frame and a trinket box that will contain a set of handmade earrings. If you know me, you know that I LOVE all things handmade! It is so personal when you give a handmade gift. My client told me that he wanted something special for his wife. He said, "anyone can buy flowers. I want her to have something that no no else has". It surprised me because most men don't think like this...mine included. I just thought that I would share this.

They are all so lovely! I made this layout as a birthday gift for my mom. Those lovely pink sprays were a gift from my friend Kay! Each of the flowers on this layout are handmade using the retro flower punches in all different sizes. I just love making those roses...it is the easiest technique that I have tried thus far. I may try to put a tutorial up showing it sometime. I trimmed the edges of those papers and then tore the edges and rolled them up a little. I then used Walnut Stain Distress Ink and inked the edges all around. I cut the little picket fence with my Sizzix Big Shot and an original Sizzix die. I used 5 flatback pearls on the circle that I cut using my Honey Bee scissors. If you know me, you know that I LOVE flowers and butterflies, so I added 3 punched butterflies using Martha Stewart's Classic Butterfly punch. I inked the edges and dressed them up with some small flat back pearls and stickles. The title is a 7 Gypsies rub on.

If the first coat is too light, let it dry and paint it with a second coat, or even a third if you want.<br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiPj9PYNbPXCLGQkgacgWoEydThzwum8VtKYV89rPJ8yCr1JTqTlGWGQmHwaWwCwZ_6JbdsEom2txm5UMD4Uyx6ozwY09jkRCMQwn3maaUU89nIq1TZZ6r415hZOeBQyRdskyHbKTBSZALf/s1600/302.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; width: 400px; height: 300px; text-align: center; display: block; cursor: pointer;" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5727342843540715154" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiPj9PYNbPXCLGQkgacgWoEydThzwum8VtKYV89rPJ8yCr1JTqTlGWGQmHwaWwCwZ_6JbdsEom2txm5UMD4Uyx6ozwY09jkRCMQwn3maaUU89nIq1TZZ6r415hZOeBQyRdskyHbKTBSZALf/s400/302.JPG" /></a>Step 7: Using the stiff bristle paint brush and a very small amount of gesso in your paint pallette or small cup, dry brush the gesso over the petals in the same motion used to paint the glimmer mist on.

I chose a flat back pearl to match my flower. I adhered it using Glossy Accents, as I have found that it holds the flat back pearls and rhinestones onto the flower best.<br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjYsD5QA-PxXspsSfbdOnX5ct8j1OrzgcE3G7TVm0fU3rKzH7bpTHsnWCuHyCLpe8FQq0PcBk1oQo8ty9qk3mswu2iCAKLIjxLKfouLxd6iiD0OaWLo4ZjBdS6CrNMihtUHT9TsDHgq_a-H/s1600/304.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; width: 400px; height: 300px; text-align: center; display: block; cursor: pointer;" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5727342440137071010" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjYsD5QA-PxXspsSfbdOnX5ct8j1OrzgcE3G7TVm0fU3rKzH7bpTHsnWCuHyCLpe8FQq0PcBk1oQo8ty9qk3mswu2iCAKLIjxLKfouLxd6iiD0OaWLo4ZjBdS6CrNMihtUHT9TsDHgq_a-H/s400/304.JPG" /></a>Viola!

All of my candles are handmade. They are a paraffin blend candle. These candles are highly scented. I use the maximum amount of scent that the wax will hold. They are very long lasting candles. I am selling these 8 ounce candles for $6 each or 2 for $10. I have several scents available. If interested in purchasing one (or more) of these candles, just send me an e mail. amyhudson21@yahoo.comAmy :~Dhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04175909532630906927noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1564846179164072195.post-84306553785210079972010-07-04T23:56:00.000-07:002010-07-11T22:46:15.484-07:00Handmade Paper Bag Albums<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjl81a6HNRaO-Xr88gLezhP2mpcLY9pEzICKzX6kWz5S_11HB4nCWeqvPxfHRubhPM3GyNNjd7nD2wwDsBbBg301vbiPryKPQyqbdj9bAP9PNV76pzFvjiLvMB4dd-mIoxaWVYiPFtQj-wS/s1600/Black+%26+Red+Paper+Bag+Album.jpg"><img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 373px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjl81a6HNRaO-Xr88gLezhP2mpcLY9pEzICKzX6kWz5S_11HB4nCWeqvPxfHRubhPM3GyNNjd7nD2wwDsBbBg301vbiPryKPQyqbdj9bAP9PNV76pzFvjiLvMB4dd-mIoxaWVYiPFtQj-wS/s400/Black+%26+Red+Paper+Bag+Album.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5490313702415937250" border="0" /></a>These lovely little handmade albums were made for a craft fair.

I just love these flowers...they are my new favorite!<br />I just love to make these albums! They are so much fun to make! They make wonderful gifts too!
