Growing In Unity
Real Life Inspiration
Day#4
Day#4
I decided to use real life inspiration to challege myself.
The 1st time I saw this little ballerina stamp, Before I Met You Tiny Dancer, it reminded me of my daughter. I knew that I wanted to make something for her with it. But what?
A card wasn't going to suffice. A door hanger idea danced its way into my head. So I got to work putting the real things into paper.
Coral and pink are her colors!
Coral and pink are her colors!
Drew my own template on a piece of cardboatd that I literally pulled out of my craft trash can at my desk. Ha! I mod podged the coral colored paper to it.
My husband thought I was crazy when I said i wanted a chandelier for her room.
I won and she got it! The June 2107 SMAK kit has this darling chandelier stamp in it that was perfect for this!
She loves ballet and dances even when she is not in class. I altered the bear to a bunny! Her name is Lavender.
I want her to be fearless in this world and to be what she wants to be. Again, the June 2017 SMAK kit provided the perfect sentiment for her. The zig zag stitching stamp is from Key to Joy!
E for Eden! These cardboard letters were from Hobby Lobby. I ripped off the black coating bc I didn't want it that color. Then I painted it with white acrylic and glitter paint that I found at a yard sale for 10cents.
Tons of ribbon. Just bc ribbon, tule and trim are pretty like her!
I hope you've enjoyed this project! Leave a comment for a chance to win some Unity!

ReplyDeleteI love EVERY. THING. ABOUT. THIS! You are way above a crafter - you are an artist!
ReplyDeleteVery creative!!! Good job!
ReplyDeleteThat's just beautiful! The hanger and your story.
ReplyDeleteSo cool! And I love your trash-can-cardboard-template! Whenever I finish up a notepad I keep the cardboard from it because you just never know when you'll need it for crafting! But really, it was a very cool idea and came out so pretty!
ReplyDeleteI love how you used so many elements. Scrap cardboard is always kept at my house. I may try this project for my grand-daughter's room!
