Sunday, May 31, 2009. It is summer time! Yes, finally some good quality time with crafts! So I thought to kick off the summer I would feature some really pretty printed paper from. They have more than just paper though, they carry all sorts of bookbinding tools, stamps, kits, paper samples, embellishments. On their website they even have video demos on great craft projects! My absolute favorite part of the website though is shopping the paper assortments by. Another great website I want to share is.

Black Cloud Designs: Hot Weenies!
http://blackclouddesigns.blogspot.com/2009/08/hot-weenies.html
Friday, August 14, 2009. I was recently commissioned to hand craft a pillow that would be an accent to a bedroom. The client wanted the pillow to have printed dachshunds (she has the cutest wiener doggie, Friday) on it in a color to match her master bedroom, a sort of fresh blue green. This is what it ended up looking like and a peek at my processes. V Some of the materials that I used. V Testing out what a few sequins would look like. Finished pillow with an invisible zipper.
