Hello,

Now this was a true challenge for me! - I normally don't "do" pink! :)

I searched through my pattern paper and found one piece of Little Yellow Bicycle from their 2008 Valentines line!!! I then used different kinds of mediums (ink, stain, and paint...) to colour the flower petals. I believe that this is the advantage of purchasing the Dies - cut them in white and colour to coordinate with your card or layout! Perfect match - even when the challenge is TICKLED PINK!

I have to admit that in the last two days I have continued on the pink challenge!
Thank you Cheery Lynn for the creative push to my girly side!

Repositional Stickers

Starting to get into the Christmas Spirit!

I did not have to much time to create in my Scraproom this past weekend! In the few stolen minutes I created three quick repositional stickers following the step by step youtube tutorial by the very talented Els Van de Burgt - Elizabeth Craft Designs.

Take a few minutes to watch the youtube tutorial and create!

I applied the 2 ornament (0439) repositional stickers onto glass votive candle holders that I purchased at a local dollar store. The Cardinal (2537) repositional sticker which I coloured with Distress Markers and blended with a Tim Holtz water pen - I applied to a IKEA tealight holder. But the options are endless - mirrors, picture frames, wall decor.......

I hope you enjoy her video as much as I did and also check out her website -
