Freestyle Crafts-Jennings644 You Tube

Hi All!  So, I have been crafting a long time.  But, I am always looking for ways to improve and grow my knowledge.  A while ago (my brain just can't remember how long) I came across a great You Tube channel called Freestyle Crafts-Jennings 644.  Her name is Fiona and she is soooo talented!  She shares her talent and knowledge on so many different crafting areas and she does it 'cause she likes to.  She never charges anything.  She does have an Etsy store where she sells her great goodies for very reasonable prices.  She is up to over 17,000 followers on her You Tube channel and she would like to reach 20,000.  You will love her videos!  I have learned so much from her!  Head on over and check her out and maybe become a subbie http://www.youtube.com/user/Jennings644?feature=watch.  Her link will also remain permanently on my sidebar under "You Tube Channels I like".  TFL!

Vintage Style Hello Card

       

I love vintage and shabby chic style things.  And this card is an ode to that style.  The card base was cut with a file from the Silhouette store.  The flower is homemade.  The base and very top of the flower are made from a roll of cream mulberry spring roll paper.  The middle is a crocheted flower from Michaels.  The sentiment is a $1 stamp from Michaels.  The patterned paper is Daisy D’s.  The twine is by Tim Holtz.  TFL!

Tag Time-Peacock Feather Tag

Hi all!  Here is a tag I made to try out my new Twinkling H20’s.  The blues and purples are made with the Twinkling H20’s.  The gold is Golden brand fluid acrylic gold paint. The flower and peacock flower die cuts are cut from my Silhouette Cameo.  I am not the best photographer, so it is hard to see all the sparkle on this tag, but it has lots of it.  TFL!

This is one of my favorite projects that I have ever done.  It is a mixed media canvas that I made for my youngest son’s third grade teacher as an end of the year gift.  She is an amazing woman!  All three of my boys have had the blessing of having her as a third grade teacher and they have all grown in their education and maturity.  I am very grateful for her! 

Her classroom theme is “H****’s Honeybee’s”.  I am leaving out her name for privacy.  So, when I came across this cut file in the Silhouette Store I immediately thought of her.  I am very grateful for the education my children have been able to get!
