A Ladies' Diary Card & Tag

Happy Sunday! A quick post today to share a few creations that I created using A Ladies' Diary collection from Graphic 45. Both of these were featured in the booth at this past CHA Show!
I added in some pieces of chipboard from Imaginarium designs and painted several of my embellishments in a cream colour to enhance the vintage feel.
Thank you so much for your visit today! Hope you have a wonderful week ahead.

Magic of Oz Altered Wine Set

Happy Saturday everyone! What a beautiful day we're having here - super sunny and still hot!  Just puttering around today and trying to work on some crafty things at the same time.  Thought I would share with you an altered wine box and wine bottle that I made for Hallowe'en using Graphic 45's Magic of Oz Collection. This also appeared in the most recent issue of Crafts 'n' Things Magazine!
I took all the hardware off the wine box to start and then measured out each section for my papers.
 
To secure heavier metal pieces like this ornate metal door plate, I used a very generous amount of tacky glue and left on its side to dry.  I also added some faux stitching to my papers BEFORE securing to my box.
Once complete, I reattached all my hardware and added a few tags and metal pieces to complete my project.
Thanks so much for your visit today!! Come back tomorrow and I will have more scrappy projects to share!

All I Ever Creations

Happy Wednesday! I'm here to share a card and tag I created for 7 Dots Studio Design team using the beautiful All I Ever Collection.
The beautiful flowers are from ZVA Creative and the metal hinges and brads are both Graphic 45 - I simply painted each piece for a more vintage/shabby chic feel.
Here is another simple tag I created using the beautiful 7 Dots Papers and metal embellishments from Graphic 45.
Thank you so much for your visit today. I'll be back tomorrow with a fun and easy Hallowe'en project for Graphic 45!
