KARLAS001 Design Team Announcement and Vacation Suitcase Album

I'm so excited to share with everyone that I've been invited by Karla to join her Design Team. Karla carries a ton of gorgeous trims, embellishments and so much more at her KARLAS001 Etsy store. I look forward to creating a ton a fun projects and can't wait to incorporate all of her wonderful products. Thank you again Karla for this wonderful opportunity.

Karla, I purchased one of the 3 boxes of this style and I was planning on leaving it just as is (because it's beautiful already), but you have made this so much more pretty!! Thank you so much for sharing this project with us.

P.S. Love the new look of your blog.

IAR Love Take Out Tin Box & Butterfly Mini

I found this adorable tin take out box at Michaels and thought how adorable it would be to alter and add a mini book inside. The tin was originally white and I alcohol inked it using Adirondack's Latte alcohol ink. I just adore the square plastic on the and back of the tin. I loving all of the Lost & Found collections by My Minds Eye and knew the Union Square collection was perfect for this project. I'm loving the color combination of black, red, beige, and brown. I usually work with lighter colors, but I'm really loving these colors together. This is what's great about crafting, there's so many different colors and styles to choose from. I usually don't like to limit myself to one style. Besides, there's so much out there that I love and that would be hard to do. I created a butterfly mini to go inside the tin using the Sizzix Butterfly & Dragonfly die and it fit perfectly. Listed below are I Am Roses flowers I incorporated on my project.
