Baby Door Hanger


This is the project i've been waiting to make. This is a door hanger for the "new" baby's bedroom. My inspiration came from this blog: http://www.danielleflanders.blogspot.com/ (Entry Oct 13.) Supplies are listed in her blog. It is chipboard "kit" it comes with sticker paper to cover the chipboard. She put two pieces together to get this shape. I traced around the two pieces to be able to use the shape later. I also traced around it to make a back piece instead of using the tape she suggested. The main supplies are called Pink Paisley and it looks like a part of the sale goes to breast cancer. If you notice in the "inspiration" there is a name under the bird/flower area.

This is a picture i took when i lived in St. Nicholas, Wales.  It was a Halloween party at their village hall.  1997.  I was told that they dressed up based on what they saw on tv from the US.  I hadn't seen these type of costumes since the early 60's.

New Cards



I bought two sheets of scrapbook paper with the circle flowers and designs on them.  I bought the co-ordinating pattern papers to match.  I die-cut the flower shape from the accent essentials circut cartridge.  The patterned flowers i just matted in orange or blue.
