Fashionable Tote for that Oh So Fashionable Gal

Good Morning Everyone!

Bringing you a little stylish project.

What better way to start a new week than in style!

With a little tote, that is.

And a pretty one at that, wouldn't you agree?

My project is a fashionable tote to help a precious 'lil girl keep track of all her special items....those items that all little girls need on an incredible journey with her friends.

I think my daughter would have loved this when she was a little girl. If it were larger, I think she would actually like it still!

I've used a muslin bag (8x10) from 3GirlJam that I decorated with some colorful fabric. I fancied and sewed the bottom of the bag so that it would sit flat. I really liked that extra feature! I will definitely be using that technique over again. I added the jumbo eyelets and included some colorful ribbon to fashion it as a little purse. A sturdy little purse that would endure an outdoor adventure!

I've donned it front and center with a Pinque Peacock 1.5 Inch Fabric Covered Button.

That's it for me. Hope it started your week with a little inspiration!

And remember...if your world includes a little girl

You were sent a precious princess in every way.

Warm Little Sweetness

I must admit that I have become quite fond of making little bitty sweaters. It all started on a recent trek to India traveling for business. I needed to carry just enough yarn to keep my busy bee hands occupied during the evenings in my hotel room. There are just so many hats a person can make, right? Anyway, having limited quantities of yarn, I decided to give a small sweater a go. This is the first one I created. I had just the perfect little buttons to add! (It really is amazing what one might find in their cosmetic bag) I love it. This sweater is also featured on the Pinque Peacock blog since I used her buttons. (Go visit and see the buttons up close) This makes the sweater a really one of a kind project! This next one is perfect for a little preemie. It's so tiny, but features a great big snowflake! Close up of the snowflake…. I also sewed on one of the StampinUp! Frosted Finishes Embellishments. I think it finished it off nice

Inspirational Unity Blog Hop

I have three huge passions related to art: photography, jewelry making, and paper crafts. Above combines two of those passions: jewelry making and paper crafts. The necklace featured is a gift for a friend. I used Unity Stamp Company stamps in all the projects shown in the picture above. If you look closely, you'll even see that I used the Hawaiian Border and the swirls in the lambs fleece of Love Ewe to make the bronze charms in the jewelry above! Besides the stamps used, other materials included Bronz Clay, antiqued bronze findings, and various beads. Of course, what gift isn't complete without packaging? You can find the tutorial for the bag Here . Paper and cardstock, punches, and ribbon used are from Stampin Up! while the stamp used is from Unity's March Kit of the Month . People who know me know how I strive to use humor everyday...and especially to make light of otherwise stressful situations. So, my quote for the day has absolutely nothing to do with my project. I
