I am often asked what my style of crafting is. Unfortunately… I never have a definitive answer to that question… So I have come to the conclusion that maybe I don’t have to have just ONE specific style, perhaps I could dabble in a few different ones. I do tend to lean more towards using mediums and making things look a little “Rock and Roll” (as seen in my Clip it up post on the 11th) but sometimes I like to go a little softer too. I mean, seriously… do we ever stick to just one thing? As humans I thing we tend to love having options, lol and so for crafting…I embrace the many wonderful options of style that are out there.

Today I am sharing two fun projects that reflect two totally different styles, but yet still are “me” projects.

SMILE Altered Camera Bag

With this blank camera bag I found a wonderful canvas just waiting to be embraced. I used Glimmer Mist (cherry limeade, turquoise blue, lime twist, dreamsicle and wheatfields) and Glimmer Glam (Mermaid and Chandelier) to hand paint the canvas.

For the title, I simple use a black and white copy

Some beautiful Prima flowers that have been altered

This is a beautiful Prima center that worked nicely on the closure

This rose started off white… but of course… nothing is safe from being colored by me!

Here is a shot and some hand beading

and of course some fun sequin that I sewed in with the beading

And of course… to show a little bit of a softer side… I used the beautiful Strawberry Kisses paper from Prima to create a fun greeting card.

LOVE greeting card

Glimmer Misted party crepe paper (Sunkissed Peach)

Some classic Prima flowers, Glimmer Misted (Tuscan sun and Sunkissed Peach)

The word love was cut out of one of the Tattered Angels Timeless Romance Calling Cards

And some fun chiffon that I threaded through the card for added texture

So I hope that you have enjoyed ALL the pictures, lol I am such a visual person so I guess I just assume that everyone else is

I will be posting the how to’s of these projects on my blog  next week.

Thanks for stopping by!
