Mustache Holiday Tree?! Hipster Fun Project

Hey there friends, I have kind of an unusual fun project to share for MOVEMBER- if you had not heard of Movember- it's really all about mustaches in November. 

I thought it would be fun to make a Hipster Holiday Tree and Card for one of my mustache fanatic friends to celebrate men's health. Such a great idea, why not have fun with it.

I used the Clear Scraps medium sized (7.5X11.5) 3D Chipboard X-Mas Tree, paired with the Clear Scraps 6" Mustaches Mascil/Stencil and the Clear Scraps Acrylic Coasters(for the card).

I wanted it to be masculine yet still shine for the holidays, so I painted the 3D Chipboard X-Mas Tree black then used metallic gold paint to stencil on the Mustaches Mascil/Stencil. Then I added black pearls.

For the card I used a black shimmer cardstock, that I fitted to the Acrylic Coaster and added 1" at the top for the border punch and fold over. 

It was a fun little kitchy project to create and perfect for November, I can't wait to see my friend's face, it is the holiday season and all sorts of decor goes, why not make it YOURS!

I hope you like my fun project today, happy November friends.

Until next time, keep on checking the Clear Scraps blog and mine for more project ideas, and keep checking back for even more new releases!

Pion/Clear Scraps Mixed Media Frame!

Hey there friends, this week on Clear Scraps we are showcasing

Pion Design projects mixed with Clear Scraps!

This one is mine, it is a Clearly Framed Frame (Clear Scraps) that I created

using Modeling Paste, Clear Scraps Chicken Wire Mascil, 

and Pion Design Paris Flea Market papers. 

 I took the Modeling Paste with the Chicken Wire Mascil to cover the entire acrylic

front piece, then I let it dry overnight. 

After that I rubbed 2 different shades of Mica Powder on it. 

I created handmade flowers and painted the back gold with Krylon. 

I was so excited to hang it in my house!

Holiday Tri-Fold Frame Acrylic IS Fun!

Morning friends, it's been a crazy week so far. 

With the boys sick last week and mom sick this weekend I still managed to

squeeze in some crafty time. 

Actually this is my favorite time of year to craft because I love the holiday

glitter and shine that happens!

For this project I used Gold Krylon paint, along with Clear Scraps Mascils, 

Tri-Fold Frame, and Flower Mixers. 

And some beautiful ribbon from  Ribbons Unlimited along with some 

Connie Crystal crystals, and CutCardStock. 

I am happy with how it turned out. 

What gifts are you making this year??

~Spring? Not Quite Yet!~

Good morning my crafty friends,

BRRR it is cold here! I am not ready for spring just yet, I do

love my winter months but I am still working on fun spring projects~

I took this oval shaped 1.00 from from Michaels and covered it in

spring papers and added a die cut. I think it will look too cute in the

kitchen when spring arrives....:)

If I get a good snow I will be ready to bring on spring LOL

But just one snow first please!!! hehe

Ok off to my craft room, today is the FIRST day back to school

since a week before Christmas, I plan on burying myself in my

craft room for a solid 5 hours! :)

Happy Wednesday my friends....
