Pins for Every Type of Valentine

The plan was to create an organization project.

But I don't feel much like organizing. I'd rather get romantical and look ahead to Valentine's Day.

So I came up with a slew of simply made pins to suit every Valentine.

I've used a variety of Punchelements for the bases. Not too long ago I scored a 1" round punch at the craft store so making these was super simple. Paint the base, add sparkle, add image/sentiment, embellish and finish off with a pin back!

I've made them to suit just about every Valentine. There's pink and sparkly for the romantic.

And something glittery and red for the saucy types. There's a "Go Away" pin for those who would rather be left alone.

And "I am crazy" for my buddy who says this is the reason she is single.

Want to make your own? You can download a sheet of the saucy and silly, nice and naughty sentiments below.

If you need a little more direction the video tutorial for creating these wee thing-a-ma-bobs can be found HERE.

Colorful ATC's by Shanna

Hello to you all today. This is the first post of the day so make sure you come back later to check out what Pam has created to share with you all.

Well Shanna here with some fun ATC's to share. YES I made some fun bright and colorful ATC's and used colors that my daughter picked out. 

All three ATC's got a coat of gesso and then my chipboard did as well. 

Then I added some paints and mica powders and stamping. My daughter just loves pink and thought the green was cool. Then some blues for my favorite color and orange because, well I don't remember why she grabbed it, but he did so I used it.

Then I added some Tim Holtz rub-ons on the punch element pieces and added a layer of cardboard behind the bottom and top pieces to give some dimension. 

Then we added the flowers and finished them off with a rhinestone for their centers. 

I hope you found some inspiration here today and would like to say thank you for stopping by.

Steampunk Heads

Happy Saturday!!!! Shanna here with two very Steampunk tags to share. 

I had a blast playing with a new color combo for my tags and I just love the pop of my steampunk couple. 

I started with the background a stencil and adding some paint. Then I just added a little more color and some stamping.  

The chipboard pieces got some different shades of metal colors. 

The punch elements got some of the same colors I used on the tag. I gave this some cardboard in between the layers though to add dimension.

For the second tag I did the same thing but added a different small chat sticker. 

These were really fun to play with and great to explore with. 

Thank you so much for stopping by today!
