Anything Goes @ Party Time Tuesday #187

This weeks challenge at Party Time Tuesday is ANYTHING GOES!!

 I wanted to create a country themed project using an embroidery hoop.  I started with a piece of muslin then stamped and inked on it.  Stretched it into the hoop and cut off the excess on the back.  You will need to cut slits around the edges so it will flatten nicely.

Then I started adding embellishments.  That was the fun part!  I layered a die cut tag, a heart, a cricut cut Love sentiment, a heart shaped button with twine, a metal flower with some burlap underneath....I LOVE how it turned out!

I also bought a bigger hoop for another country project.

Now head on over the Party Time Tuesday blog and see what our other designers have featured.  Enter your own project to be entered for the prize!!

PTT Chipboard Challenge

Today at Party Time Tuesday our challenge is to use chipboard.

I've used several die cut items: the doily, flowers, leaves & butterfly.

The pink triangle pieces and the blue flower spring on the right are chipboard pieces.

The triangle banners I coated in white gesso and then "painted" it using Tim Holtz persimmon distress stain.

To bring a little life to the piece, I did some doodling with a black pitt pen

 These are pictures of my granddaughter during Memorial Day holiday  We went to Fairystone Park and played on the playground and in the water.
