SHabby Accents Blog Hop 2/27-28

Welcome to the Shabby Accents Blog Hop!!!

Our Sponsors:

The Funkie Junkie's Boutique - $15.00 Gift Certificate

Sa Crafters - $20.00 Gift Certificate

Please follow along as the following crafters showcase their handmade Shabby Chic Accents. Be sure to visit each blog, as each artist will be having a giveaway. Also, we have a couple of awesome sponsors who have generously donated for a “Grand Prize Giveaway”. Their shops are full of shabby goodness. To qualify, all you have to do is become a follower if not already and leave a comment on each blog stating you are a follower, or have become one.

The shabby chic style has been around for many many years, originating from Great Britain, where time worn items were showcased in most country homes. Today’s essence of shabby chic is to achieve that time worn layered vintage look from yesteryear by painting, distressing, dying or tea staining. Now we bring it to you right from our craft tables.

For my project I used some paper that I bought at Walmart with some random lace and trims that I had in my stash and all the stamped quotes are from Pink By Design. For the red and polka dot paper I used BoBunny paper (my fave). By the way...I made this out of toliet paper rolls that I painted white and brushed with pink.

Mixed Media Blog Hop

Welcome ladies to the Mixed Media Blog Hop hosted by Monica at Scraps to Treasure. She is the first stop and I am the second so you should be coming here straight from Monica.

This hop will not have a long list because it involves a little more work and it is going to broaden everyone's creative by introducing everyone to the world of mixed media along with altered which of course everyone is familiar with.

For those who may not know what it is: Mixed media uses things like -

•Paints

•Gesso

•Gel Mediums

•Molding Paste

But it is a simple as using glimmer mist on a tag or using game pieces and alcohol inks.Everyones take on it is different and I hope you enjoy all the creations and GOOD LUCK to the winner!! Be sure to become a follower on each blog and leave a comment to be eligible for the GRAND PRIZE which is pictured/listed below.

These are the products I used:

Here are a couple links of more mixed media items I have created recently...

Guess what....

I have a free file for you and you are going to love it!

I used to be so scared of digital scrapbooking but now I love it and wish I could sit in front of the computer all the time. I love the idea of printing out my digital layouts and then adding embellishments to them. I also love the fact that I can now make my own blog hop buttons and invitations and anything I want without limitations.

If your interested feel free to use my code at the top and get the money off and the free money after purchase. If you have any questions please email me at alina.luis@live.com and I will be more than happy to help!

Based on a book blog hop

Scroll down for the Fabulous 50 blog hop...

You should be here from my crafty friend Anita over at http://www.anitaandbugs.blogspot.com but if not please head over to Tanya - http://little-scrapper.blogspot.com to start over and you will be so happy you didn't miss anythin!!!!

Okay so for this hop I wanted to use my favorite books and make a box and album on all four books but I just didn't have all the time today so I was only able to finish this box before I stared cooking.

This is the top of the box and just the beginning...

These letters I got from the DCWV embellishment box and even though they were very glittered in red I had to use the silver glitter paint to give it the Cullen sparkle

I love how the box looks like its leather

really I just applied black Gesso and used wild strokes of bright red paint repeatedly but you can still see the grain....so cool

Doesn't this look so cool!!!!

The flowers are flowers that I have from my own stash

I painted the flowers with silver glitter paint

I am not done yet but the inside is going to have both worlds decorated within and the album is going to be loaded with my favorite quotes and photos.
