I AM SO EXCITED...
I wanted to share one of my favorite projects using the Artful Mixed Media Canister using the  to Kitchen Canister #15181 Die.

Be A Star with Vintage Hollywood Layout with Graphic 45

 
Good morning everyone!!! Are you ready to see one of the latest collection from Graphic 45...
VINTAGE HOLLYWOOD!!!!
OH MY..MAKES ME WANT TO TRAVEL BACK IN TIME!!!
When I first seen the Vintage Hollywood Collection I couldn’t help but fall in love with the Epherema Card that said “Shine Bright Like a Diamond”.
We should all want to shine bright each day!!!!

BE A STAR....
Adding small metal frames, labels, etc. will help bring your eye to a word, phrase or photo.

It also lets your eyes advance to that particular focal point on your layout or projects.




Fussy cutting multiple layers and placing them on pop dots gives great dimension.
I gives fabulous dimension to your projects.


It is so inspiring to remember that we are all diamonds, some rougher than others but all being molded each day through trials and challenges. We just need a reminder to always need to let out “diamond” shine."


Fussy cut the pretty images from the pattern paper will give you those extra matching embellishments that we so desire to have included on our projects.
REMEMBER...
Layer with pop dots...
Tip flowers at the petals
Adding small die cuts will all give your projects lots of dimension!



I hope you are inspired to grab some of Graphic 45 Vintage Hollywood and make some amazing projects. Stop over and check out my teamie Kathy over at Kathy by Designs she is sharing Portrait of a Lady layout on her blog today. Hugs Pam

Happy Day with a Smile Candle Holder!!!!



 Happy Saturday!!!
Today I am sharing with you my Happy Day With A Smile Candle Holder using some of Eileen Hull's fabulous Dies from Sizzix!!!


 Cut four of the Sizzix Make It 3-D Box from the Little Sizzles Mat Board.
Cut two pieces of mat board to  measure approximately 3 1/4" x 4 1/4" and two pieces of mat board to measure approximately 2" x 3. (Refer to photo to see where to cut flaps off)
HINT: When I am placing paper on my altered pieces I staple the flaps with my tiny attacher.

 
Tape the bottoms of my box to hold it into place. Cut four 1" by 4 1/2 mat board strips and glue to the inside walls of box to add support.
Cut a piece of mat board to glue to the bottom. 
Cut and adhere pattern paper to sides and bottom.

 
Die cut 8 of the Lace Doily Medallion using mat board and 16 of  DCWV Chick Chat Stack pattern paper.
I used my Xyron 9" Permanent Adhesive and the  Xyron Creative Station to apply the adhesive to my pattern paper and placed them on the front and back of the Lace Doily Medallion pieces.


 Take 4 of the covered Lace Doily Medallion pieces and cut in half.
Adhere to corner of prepared box using Glossy Accent.
(You could use a hot glue gun or different glue)

 
Once the glue has set on the sides Lace Medallion Doily...place the four solid prepared pattern paper Lace Medallion Doily to the each side to form box.


Use Glossy Accent and place two pieces of WeR Memory Keeper Teal Twine on the sides of my box along with a bow on each side.
Punch circle sentiments from the DCWV Chick Chat Stack and place one on each side of box.
Cut 4 of each of the Flower Layer with Heart Petals and form into flowers, add enamel dots to the center of each.


 Place two to the front of box.


Rthe two circles, banner strip and sentiment journal block through the Xyron Creative Station.
Add circles to the top of candle and one of the flowers to the top of the candle jar.

 
Wrap candle with a piece of the burlap from the DCWV Chick Chat Stack, add a journal piece, and wrap a few times with the We R Memory Keepers Twine and tie into a bow.

 Thanks for stopping by today to see how to create the  Happy Day With A Smile Candle Holder using the Sizzix Make It 3-D Box , Flower Layers and Heart Petals Die and Sizzix Lace Medallion Doily.
