Faux File Folder Mini

Here is my Mini I made from the tutorial from Angelwings14100 on youtube. Here is a link to the videos. I used BoBunny paper from the  Hello Sunshine line 6x6 pad. This was a very fun and quick mini that can be made in about 2 days or 1 if you are really fast. It does need a t least a 36 count pad of paper and about 5 sheets of 12x12 Cardstock.

Altered Bottle

 

 



Here are some altered bottles I did. I got the idea from Heidi Bound. Here is her blog that you can check out. Gotham city stampers I received the bottle from a friend. I decoupaged various themed paper with a gel medium. Once dried I distressed it with some of Tim Holt's distress inks. I cut an eiffel tower die from my machine and adhered it to the bottle. I also added various flowers that i got from the floral section of my craft store, aged them with Distres ink also. I also decided to add Mica flakes to my tower. I added various flowers and other embellishments. Try on and see what you come out with.

Wood and Clay Tiles

 

 

 

This is the clay tile I did in the video. I actually added some blingage and just used glossy accents.

 

 

 

Here is the wood tile I made. I used the crackle accents on this one.

 

 

 

 

Here is a video where I made these tiles.  

 

Look what I am making tomorrow!!

It is a decorated Felt Top hat. I saw these at Joanns for $20 and it was onsale for $10, however I think my total cost would be about $5, I already had most of the supplies here in my stash. The hat I will be making tomorrow will be different.

So I will be making this on my ustream show tomorrow Saturday  October 6th at 1pm central time on my channel. http://www.ustream.tv/channel/all-things-creative1

Here is a list of materials you will need

Felt- any color or pattern

Trim- ribbon, sequins, beads ect ect ect, possibilities are endless)

Feathers  any feathers will work.

Embellishment - I used some of the rhinestone picks from the bridal section here. I will also make some felt flowers.

Glitter Glue

Hot Glue Gun and sticks

Scissors

Circle dies and or template- I used Spellbinders S4-114 I also cut a template about 4 1/2" circle for my brim.

Stuffing_ I will just use a plastic bag from walmart to stuff it

Headband or a spring clip

Optional - cereal box weight chipboard to keep the brim sturdy, can cut to size of brim. Will explain in the ustream.



If YOu want to precut your felt for the hat here is what I used.

1- 3"x9" strip of felt
1 - 3 3/4" circle largest in the die set
1- 3 1/4" circle 2nd largest in the set
1 4 1/2" circle, I cut this myself cause I didn't have a die for it

Dragon Canvas

Here is the canvas I did for Boni Grabusky for a swap we participated in. It is 5x7. I took a clip art from the internet and embellished it. Boni loves Dragons and butterflies. The Dragon is glossy accented to pop it out.
