     Good morning fellow crafters! Isn't it great to see what everyone shares for their favorite things? I just want to make sure you are on the right track, so, if you came from Kimberly  then you are in the right place. I hope you have been inspired by all the projects so far.
     Are you ready to see some of my favorite things? First I love altering then embellishments, all kinds! I love lace, flowers, rub-ons, bling and beads, dimension, metal etc. I think you get the idea, lol.
     First I started with this beautiful box. One of my daughters bought me an Alex and Ani bracelet for Mothers' Day and presented it in this beautiful yet plain box.

     Jessica sent me the most beautiful bag of goodies and so I grabbed some out and started to play. Here are the goodies:

 

     These are from the May release. They are just gorgeous I tell you. I also added a few things from this month's Crafty Kit (more on that later!). You can find these items at the shop listed in the link above. Now let's see what I did with them!

     

     I added some lace from July's Crafty Kit as well as the metal leaf, and pearls. The flower (Nana's pillowcase collection) and the stick pin are from the May release and are still available.

 

   

 

      I also wanted to add something to the front so I used Silver foil rub ons that were also in the July Crafty Kit along with a small pearl. This box is the perfect size for little trinkets and I will certainly place it in a place of honor in my craft room!

     Now be sure to head over to Rebecca for some fabulous inspiration. I wonder what her favorite things are?

Vintage Looking Box

    Aloha and Happy Monday! You read that right I am here in Hawaii while my daughter has some surgery done. Hopefully all goes well today.

I hope you all had a chance to hop along with Erica's Team over the weekend. Oh such talented ladies! If not, be sure to check out the 100 Cart Blog Hop on her blog: http://mycricutcraftroom.blogspot.com/

     Today the Design Team was asked to show you projects using the Imagine, E2 or CCR, I chose to use the Imagine and the Imagine More Cards cartridge.

     Isn't this a beautiful box? The image is in the Bonus Content section on page 28. I chose to make this at fit to page and used the colors just as the are. I did use my crop a dile to make a hole and finished with an eyelet to string my ribbon through. Now the fun begins. I took a scrap piece of lace and used a running stitch to gather the lace into a "flower". I had a small fabric rose left over from some project so I thought this went really well with the colors in this box and added it to the center of my "flower".

     I had a rather odd "pearl" so I added that to the flap for a little extra bling. Of course I couldn't stop there!  I have so many beads from different projects that I thought I'd try my hand at a stick pin. Oh I love how this looks! I had to use some glue dots to adhere it.

     I even had a small charm that says "Made With Love". I really love how this came out. My best friends' birthday is in the middle of March so I made this with her in mind. I just have to figure out what to put in it, lol.

     Be sure to checkout what the rest of the Design Team has to show you today. You can find them here:
