Good Monday morning!  The first time I saw the Graphic 45 Typography Collection, I knew that it was a must have.  Every time I look at the collection I envision something else that can be done.  My project today is one that I have been wanting to do since the collection came out  . .  for the gypsy in all of us!

DrawOutsideTheLines

My first instinct was to find some old crayons  . . . but then a pencil stub hit me . .  . so I had to go with both.

DrawOutsideTheLinesOval

Please pardon the glare on this one, the ICE Resin® over the crayon was a little difficult to photograph.

DrawOutsideTheLinesSquare

Who can’t resist drawing outside the lines . . .

DrawOutsideTheLinesPencil

Some colorful beads to mimic Crayola colors and one of my crossword pencils.

I LOVE it and now that I see it on the screen . . . I’ve just thought of another way to create it!

Thanks for stopping by today!

Happy weekend!  I hope everyone is enjoying their weekend so far.  I really thought I would be back with a project before now, but as luck would have it this past week was a real bear.  Once again Mallory ended up in the emergency room and we spent close to 11 hours waiting while they ran a few MRIs and got the results.  We left still not knowing what is wrong with her and had orders to follow up with more doctors.  We did the follow ups a day or so later and still are no closer to a diagnosis than we have been for the past 2 years.  We have finally received approval to take her to one of the larger clinics but we are trying for a referral to a neurologist here first.  A neurologist is the only specialist we have not seen yet . . . .

If anyone has any experience with these symptoms, we would love to hear from you:  muscle/joint aches and pains, left arm and leg going numb, hand tremors, blurred vision, deep chesty cough, fatigue, headaches . . .

We’ve had a number of people (not doctors) mention MS to us . . . and quite frankly her symptoms are all there . . . but we’ve thought about a number of other things too.

In the meantime, I got some studio time yesterday afternoon and was able to finish up a quick card this morning.

FromTheGardenCard

I’ve been waiting for the Studio 490 From the Garden Stencil for Art and it finally arrived this week.  I couldn’t wait to do something with it.  The flowers were stenciled 3 different times, with the top two trimmed out and popped up over the one on the front of the card.

I left a sentiment off on purpose, because every time I turn around Mallory or someone else in the family is needing a card . . . this way we can add a sentiment to the inside when it is needed.

That’s all for today.  I’ve got one more project for tomorrow, so I’ll be back then!  Thanks for stopping by.

Good Monday morning!  I hope everyone had a great weekend and didn’t get into too much trouble.  I spent Saturday cleaning up the basement after the sump pump failure the week before (yes, we are still trying to get things moved around, stuff we don’t need tossed out, and more of the carpet out of the downstairs room of stash).   Sunday was household chore day  . . . and racing of course!

Last week was a busy week with lots of blog hops, etc., and on Saturday I not only had the Quietfire Design/Dreamweaver Stencil hop, but also had a post go live on the eP Blog.   Typically I give you more info over there, but I saved most of it for here today because most of the project was created with Spellbinders®.

TypographyHanging

The project can either be a wall hanging or with an easel back attached could be set out on a shelf.  I just received the Graphic 45 Typography Collection and couldn’t wait to make something with it.  Actually this is the first of a number of projects I have envisioned.  Love this collection!!

The base is lightweight chipboard (because its easy to die cut with Spellbinders die templates).  Three separate pieces were die cut for the bottom base and then three more for the top layer.  Once die cut, they were glued together to make a sturdier base so the project wouldn’t bend or warp.

TypographyChipboard

The sentiment is from the Typography Collection which was cut out twice, with the top trimmed and placed with foam mounting tape over the full bottom sentiment.

The flower was die cut/embossed with Bitty Blossoms.  The frame was made with Labels One.  The frame and the sentiment panels were all mounted on chipboard before cutting.  The embellishment is the new Circle Hatpin from the Spellbinders Media Mixage line.  I added some glitter and then poured ICE Resin® into the bezel.

TypographyHanging

That’s all I have today.  Hopefully I’ll be back in the next day or so (depending on studio time this week) with another project.

Thanks for stopping by!
