Textured layers card for Let's Get Trendy Now!3

Wooooohooooo! I'm so glad today's Friday! It has been a really tiring week for me since I got really sick over the weekend but still managed to do 17 blog posts on 5 blogs without majorly screwing up *High fives all around*. Yep, people generally get drowsy on flu medication but me? Full steam ahead! My doctor says I need a horse tranquillizer to knock me out...*LOL* [Hey! Don't get any funny ideas!]

I created textured layers on my card by mixing up a bunch of elements. And adding some handstitching.

Please check out the awesome textured layers inspiration over at the Let's Get Trendy Now!3 blog.

P/s: Now to play catch-up on commenting and emails. Happy weekend friends! :)

Altered project for Let's Get Trendy Now!3

So I have had this [you get to fill in the blank] in my "things to upcycle" stash for a while now and used it as the base for my altered project. Any idea what it is?

Here is another clue....the view from the back...and it is used in the bathroom.. *winks*

Yep....loofah brush! :) I coloured a Ranger Grungeboard with Faber Castell gelatos for the "frame". Some stitching on the photo for a textured border. [Love it when the nephews cooperate...] Fun embellishments. And finally some used for stuffed toy I've been keeping in my "save it for a rainy day" stash. :)

More photos of the rascals on Purple Pumpkin fabric buttons....Leather cords from an old belt.

Tag with handmade embellishment for Let's Get Trendy Now! 3

Hello there friends! Today's tag turned out really sparkly [to cover mistakes of course...*LOL*]!

I started with Faber Castell gelato + water on the base of the Ranger Grungeboard. Found a remnant piece of lace that fit the width of the tag *score*. But it was hard gluing down the lace and there were visible glue marks. Out came the Glimmer Glam [Love the larger glitter bits!]. Found a bottle cap and filled it up with pretty sequins...and a big heart bling. Some aqua beads and ribbon and I'm all done! :)
