Wedding Bells with Charm

Hi Everybody...Hope you all had a great weekend. 

Today I'm sharing with you a card I did for Heartfelt Creations and Creative Charms.  The stamp image is from Heartfelt and it's just beautiful for the Wedding Season that is upon us. 

The vintage brads and pearls are from Creative Charms and I love the look they give any project.  You can custom them to match anything...how cool is that. 


For complete directions for this card be sure to hop on over to Heartfelts Blog and check it out. 

Hugs, Lori

KaiserCraft Trinket Box


I don't know if you have ever used one of KasierCrafts Beyond the Page projects or not...but they are wonderful and something you have to give a whirl.  This is a box I created for the Design Team Final entry using The Pink Gelato Paper Collection that was brand new in June. 

The main flower on the top of the box was handmade and the other two flowers are some of Kaiser's yummy coconut flowers.  Of course you know how much I dig pearls...so they adorn my trinket box everywhere...and I love them.

The back of the box really show the crackle finish that I did over the base of the box.  I did the crackle and then rubbed it down with distress inks to age it up a bit.
Had to throw a few more pearls on the sides too!!!!!!
I finished the inside of the trinket box too.  I always feel places like that need to be finished also even if they are just your own little secret and not everyone see it...you do, so make it pretty. 

I've been working on some projects for Kaiser and look forward to sharing more new things with you later in the month.

Have a great week and Happy 4th of July.

Hugs, Lori
