Pink, Flowers, Weddings, New Work & Free Images

There's just something about beautiful pink flowers!

  

The cards below are for a wedding save the date card.  I'm working on my niece's wedding stationery and this was a one of the samples. Isn't that image adorable?  I got it from Altered Pages.  Jackie has an awesome selection of beautiful images and many altered art supplies at her shop, Altered Pages.  I'm using some of her images to feature here on my blog in the next few months.  So stay tuned.

 

Here's another version with the same image

 

If you're in the mood for pink, flowers and weddings, or not, check this awesome, and so easy tutorial from

 Shelley from House of Smiths: Hanging Roses!

I finally made one of these cool pedestal dishes.  I saw some beautiful ones on blogs that got me inspired.  

So these 3 bowls and candle holders from Goodwill and a little E-6000 glue and DONE!  So easy and wonderful use of things we love and can be practical too.

I'll leave you with some free images. Remember you can click to enlarge.

Altered Rolodex

Here's the finished Rolodex I worked on to give to someone retiring at work. The cards were done by several employees in our department. I later put it all together. The single cards photographed here are my own design. A cool touch for wrapping, use old sewing patterns instead of tissue. That's what I used in the bag that had the gift. Something I know this person appreciates as she's a sewer and an advocate for the green movement.
