December Kit Sneak - Ornament by Erika

I'm head over heels in love with the December Kit of the Month. It is filled with some of my favorite Creative Charms Treasures and I wanted to share with you an ornament I created using a few of these treasures.

Hi Everyone! Erika Taylor here today to share with you a glass ornament I altered, using a few pieces from the December Kit of the Month. I'm loving these Seasonal Sparkle Stickers that are in the kit. They pair up perfectly with the pretty butterflies.

So here you are, a few photos of the ornament.  I hope you like it.

For the inside of the ornament, I used ivory acrylic paint, Helmar Premium Craft Glue and blue glitter. Love how it turned out. Almost looks like a little snow storm in there.

 This next picture really showcases the beautiful blue colors of the embellishments against the ornament itself.

Well that is it for me today. I hope you all have a safe and happy Holiday Season. May the light shine brightly for you and your loved ones

Until next time
Seasons Greetings

Refreshment?

Alrighty, it's the end of the month. I don't know about you, but I'm so ready for July to be over before it even starts. It's so stinkin' hot and strangely humid around here for some reason. I feel clammy every time I step outside. Yuckie! My disdain for hot sticky weather is really what lead me to creating my refreshing project with the Deal of the Month. Who doesn't love a glass of ice cold home made lemonade? Ah! Whomever came up with the idea to take something tropical and sour and turn it into something sweet and refreshing is a genius! I thought this big clear paint can would serve well as a bucket for lemons ready to be squeezed at a backyard BBQ or driveway lemonade stand. It makes me want a glass right now...

I hope this project refreshes you a bit!

May Flowers

I hate that May is almost over. It's my favorite month. I'm pretty sure it will come back again though.

Anyway, I was cleaning out my craft room when I came across a giant wooden clothes pin. I used to have buckets of them. I just thought they were the cutest thing. I still see them all over the place and in all kinds of stores. I decided that I should finally do something with it, so here's what I whipped up using the Pink Blooming Garden embellishments that I picked up with the May Kit of the Month...

 

What have you been hoarding that you can turn into something fabulous???

Bye for now!

Springtime Fun and Altered Easter Eggs

Hello Creative Charms fans!  Jan here to a couple of Spring cards.  I really like the vintage brads on the bottom of the birdcage.  What do you think?  The other card is a dimensional flower made by cutting two petal sections and the layering two pieces and sewing them together.  So easy and it really gives the flower dimension.

I know it sounds a little funny, but being an Altered Artist, I'm always on the lookout for fun things to alter!  LOL...so here's some hard boiled Easter Eggs that are certain to bring a smile thie Easter.
