Every little thing....

.....you do matters so much....

quote from Brave Girls Club...

As this is my last post as a design team member for Linnie Blooms...I wanted to spotlight the wonderful community of Brave Girls Club......I do not know if I will ever make it to one of their awesome camps {...dream....}, but I totally BEEEEEEEElieve in their concept!

Using a Linnie Blooms canvas blank...flowers...& leaves, I have colored with spray inks {heidi swapp...yum!} and Faber Castel gelatos {oh my goodness....cannot get enough of these!!}..layered it all together...some fun pompoms from my stash...oh and  snotexture applied thru PUNCHINELLA{yes...I am addicted to this}

Topped off with a Melissa Frances hanger I received in my Linnie Blooms rep kit.

It's been an experience...I will never forget!

What's in the Tea Leaves?

Well....as much as I enjoy my cup of coffee in the morning...I do so also enjoy my YOGI tea...

and so attached to each  tea bag is a tag with positive sayings/quotes/wordage.

Not to let ANYTHING go to waste ...I have been collecting these little pieces...for my art:

Soooooooooooo...I made a tag...with the tea tag "leaves"...and a Linnie Blooms butterfly, turned into a sweet yellow buttercup for spring!....a little piece of art!

Now, I am on a roll....I have had some mini frames( 4"x5") in my stash for MANY years..that I took and shabbed up, and with an ATC size piece of chipboard, I painted, layered & collaged up 2 more TEA ARTs!

*****I adhered these to the topside of the frame for a different look*****

I used the Linnie Blooms house and the owl ...super cute product!!

Beeeeeeeeeeeeee sure to check out The Linnie Blooms shop...she is adding more fun & yummys all the time!....

LOVE is in the Air.....

.....My first blog post as a Design Team member for Linnie Blooms!!
soooooooooooooo...over-the-top excited!!

I just do not know where to start!...OK...let me JUMP in!!....This started out with a plain old metal candle  tray that was rescued from the Goodwill {hunting } bag....

...to which I added some PP from my huge stash...yes...I am a hoarder...but, that is for another posting!

I started with a Linnie Blooms long canvas blank

..and started adding some paints from my (hoarding) stash..

yes....yes....as you can see...I have some OLDOLDOLD MM scrapbook paints I cannot throw away...along with an OOPS paint from Lowes(my "day" job)....Look closely at the paper pad ledger...it will "morph" into a background on another project...

******

I took the Linnie Blooms canvas tree and, being inspired by another DT member , Candy Spiegel

and her idea of using an embossing folder..I slightly dampened the tree shape and ran it thru my Cuttlebug w/embossing folder....WOWeeeeeeeeeeeeee...just a slightly raised image...but, once I put the color on....OH MY GOODNESS!!!!

So, adding bits 'n bobs from my stash(yes...THAT one!)....along with the Linnie Blooms flags...uber cute...I took my  alpha stamps and with Stazon ink stamped the letters and wordage....Glued everything down with MOD PODGE matte.....OH the TEXTURE....oh the colors!!

The entire canvas collage was attached to the tray for a OOAK piece of art !

BTW...I am totally IN LOVEEEEEEEEEEE with the Faber-Castell Gellatos & Pitt pens!!

These are my new...FAVE...go to coloring go-to's!

The Gellatos are just absolutely YUMMY!!...and vibrant...and creamy....any EASY to use!

*************

And..................because I cannot throw anything away...(craft hoarder)...I used the ledger paper and cut into a tag as  a background for the SUPERDUPER sweet as can be Linnie Blooms canvas owl.

...and yet ANOTHER tag...with a LB canvas heart..background made from the babywipe I cleaned up paint & sprays with...

Sooooooooooooooooo...there you have it!....I hope my posty inspired you to get your crafty on with your Linnie Blooms!

I will have a give-a-way  for this sweetheart tag on my blog SUNDAY, January 19th at
