I am so excited to be a part of
...not only as a guest designer (yikes! I hope I do okay!), but I am also a sponsor!!! (stay tuned for the details of the prize I have donated, at the bottom of this post ;))Here is the inspiration:
What immediately inspired me were the clouds...I love clouds! I have been wanting to try a mixed media canvas for SO long, so I decided to do one for this project...MY FIRST EVER CANVAS :) I used a tutorial from Christy Tomlinson, whom I've always admired (from "she art" fame). This was fun, and I learned a lot (A LOT, what dries fast, what doesn't dry at all, for example, after 3 days of drying, you can still see the glue under the buttons still hasn't dried! Let glue dry before you Mod Podge over things ;) And a big one: paint fast over the first layer and "scrape" the paint off quicker!). But crafting is all about learning, and I am a permanant student LOL...can't wait to improve on myself and do another, and another :)
Here is the list of designers on the hop:

and me:
I am providing a full kit for the featured designer.
About my kits: Currently in my shop, I have my "doodad" kits - embellishment kits made up of "non-traditional" scrapbooking items, which include new items, ephemera, and vintage findings. Starting (hopefully) this month, I am going to have new kits that include "traditional" scrapbooking paper and embellishments, mixed with my "doodads". I am still waiting on one suppliers' products (I ordered right when they were filling their summer CHA orders, so they got behind). So I made a kit up from the supplies I had - this is a one of a kind, Polkadot Door Designs exclusive kit :) It includes my doodads: ribbon, buttons, non-traditional scrappy embellies, vintage findings and ephemera. It also includes traditional scrappy items: 8 pieces of patterned paper, 2 pieces each of 4 different colored cardstock, alphas, and embellishment.
This one includes items from Pink Paislee, American Crafts (Amy Tangerine!), and Studio Calico, and is valued at $23.00.
Here's detail of the paper, the bottom strip is to show the other side of the printed paper, their are 8 double sided pieces:
If you follow me on facebook (link on the right hand side of my blog), I will keep you posted of when I list my new kits :) If I get enough followers, I'll have a giveaway there :)
Thanks for joining the hop!!!
