Goood Morn...and happy Monday! It is Crafty Secrets linky party time! We were all challenged to create something for Mother's day, babies, graduation, or gardening. I chose to create a personal gift you could give to Mama! I grew up with my Mother sewing and so I created several sewing theme pockets with matching tags. I used images from sewing ephemera kit, and paper from the creating vintage with vintage patterns cd. 1) I printed out the images I wanted and scored the blue bird envelope first and gathered my other images together. 2) I than grabbed my file folder and cut it down covering it in papers and stitched up the sides. 3) I glued chipboard to the backsides of my spool images to create more depth to them and inked the edges. 4) I than grabbed my layers and images and started adding them to the file folder and added my trims. 5) From here I created my inside tag adding goodies as I went. This is the time to really play and add things to make your creation really unique. On each piece as you can see I repeated my colors.....red, blue, and yellow. This way even when you have different images and adornments things stay cohesive. I also repeated my washi taps and ribbons all adding to the theme. I had to snap pics of the other side of the blue bird envelope....isn't it cute? Loved it so much I had to print out a mini of it and used it on the inside tag! I adore how these images all work so well with my vintage embellishments...a match made in heaven! Hope you enjoy...and check out all the other ladies gorgeous creations! hugs, cherry
