Flower Pot

Wow! Can you believe that it is already the middle of of January? I have to say I am enjoying the temperate weather in Northern Florida. Soon it will be spring and flowers will be blooming all around. For my Magnolia Forever DT challenge "Blue" I decided to create this flower pot with Tilda in the Garden. She is too adorable.

Here is how I created my project. I purchased the paper mache flower pot in Michaels. I sprayed the pot with Prima Bloom Spray. To create the butterfly and dragon fly sticks I used straws that I covered with Tim Holtz tissue tape and add a pearl to the top of each one. The inside of the pot was filled with these beautiful blue and white flowers. I used Magnolia large butterfly, butterfly and dragon fly doohickey dies. The other butterfly die is from Memory Box. I added trim, butterflies, seed packets and Tilda to the outside design of the flower pot.

I hope I inspired you today to create something.  Thanks for stopping by!

New Stash

Happy Wednesday,

How is your week going? Mine is going well. Our challenge over at Midweek Magnolias is "Lets see some of your new stash." I am using my new Pion paper, Go Create Die, Magnolia Doohickey Die - Bride's Bow, Angel Wings, Rocking Horse and Sue Wilson Poinsettia Die.

I just love this sweet little Tilda. I colored her with Copic Markers and paper pieced her outfit. I used some shabby white frantage, birch heart and bling. So start you New Year out right and head over to Midweek Magnolias -"Lets see some of Your New Stash".
