Creating More Cute Things.........

Happy Saturday Girls..

Just popping in today to show off my latest crafty creation.

Some time ago, I had purchased a pack of large scrolled wood pieces intended for use in creating an altered album. Well I decided to do something just a bit different and use just one of the pieces to create a cute and shabby looking collage instead.

Starting with a blank canvas...


I quickly and easily transformed it into something just a bit more "me", once again using some pretty scrapbook paper, a new favorite rubber dress form stamp, and of course a pretty image, some buttons and lace trims.

And now that simple wood piece looks like this..






I think I'll be hanging this newest creation in my office here at home as the pinks and blues will go perfectly with the rest of the things I've used to decorate my work space.

I must say, this crafting thing is sure lots of fun and quite addictive once you start.  Let's just hope it continues to be that way as I'm really enjoying it.

And I just want to say "Thanks" to those of you who left me such kind comments on my previous post about my transformed desk caddy/organizer.  It really does mean a lot to me that you can appreciate my creativity, just as I do yours.

Have a great weekend!!!

That's so clever! I feel like my work space is really boring now. I love the lace trim on the top.
