Dance ...

Hello all and welcome to this week's challenge here at The Beary Scrap Challenge Blog!  We're making DIY (Do It Yourself) embellishments this week and I've got a lot of DIY to share with you - wheeeeee!

Recently, I partnered up with a stampy blog friend of mine from across the miles to make an Art Quilt!  I'm having so much fun making the little blocks for my quilt ... I was a quilter before I got addicted to paper crafting!!  I adore how my blocks are coming out ... all scrappy, shabby and FUN!


So, this is block #3 out of the 16 total blocks I will have when this project is complete.  I stamped a beautiful image from Kaisercraft's Flourish Journals stamp set on beautiful Annalee patterned paper by Prima.  I cut out the image and adhered a vintage tag, a snipett of lace and a couple of Light Pink Rhinestones from Kaisercraft


The pretty bow is made from pink seam binding and I attached a heart charm at the middle. The center of the quilt block had some tea-stained twill tape and pretty little white pom-pom trim.  Above this trim I added three beautiful Snow Pearls from Kaisercraft.


After I spritzed the chipboard frame with pink and green glimmer mist and added some glitter, I adhered some 20 mm pink and white mulberry paper roses to the frame and one more in the center of the pink bloomer!  A few more bits and bobs of vintage treasures - crystal trinket pins, leaves made from glittered paper and machine sewn for contrast, a vintage doilie - complete this DIY handmade from the heart quilt block!
Thanks for peeking ... have a wonderful stampy day!

Hugs!
