China Cabinet: Light House Display

Today I want to share an amazing  piece from Gina's Designs.
 The China Cabinet.  
I have never been to the ocean, but ever since I was a little girl I have loved Light Houses, and the strength and beauty they bring. So with this project, I wanted to have a way to display some of my collection of Light Houses.
This Adorable China Cabinet has endless possibilities for you to create! The front doors open, and all three bottom draws open as well for you to store your craft goodies in!
To keep with the Nautical theme, Gina's Beach Shape Set is a perfect fit! I have to admit while working on this project, I got the sudden cravings for Lobster!
A Compass to guide you along your way....Plus more Lobster and other things you would find at the Beach!

Thank you again for stopping by!
 May everyone have a wonderful Memorial Day remembering those who fought and still serve for our Country.



Other item used:
Authentique "Anchored" (Nautical) collection
Distressed Ink - Faded Blue Jean
Distressed Ink - Tea Dye
White Sand
Gesso

Gina's Desk Organizer

Hi everyone! Today I want to show off Gina's Desk Organizer.
Now I have seen this decorated many different ways, and I chose to only decorate the outside of the organizer, keeping the inside the beautiful dark wood color.
I also am using this to store some of my paint brushes instead of just pens or things needed at a desk.
Kaiser Crafts 75cents Collection is one of my favorites paper line that they brought out, and I think it was perfect for Gina's Desk Organizer.
Here you can see some Doily Intricates. I just love them!

Thank you all for stopping by, and have a Blessed Day!

Happines ....Altered Canvas

I would like to share an Altered Canvas with you today.
 My Mother loved this one, and she can be hard to please....so her liking it made it all worth it!
This Canvas I started on last September, but wasn't sure where to take it from here. So I stepped away.....for like 8 months!
Gina's Designs and Laser Cuts are truly an inspiration for me to complete a project!

 Here you see her Laser Cuts come in so many shapes and I just love anything with a Paris theme.
Her Parisian Shape Set  is ideal, but I special ordered the Eiffel Tower from Gina to fit my canvas.
 
Love the added touch of the  Hot Air Balloon   
This perticular one is the Net Style.


And one can never have too many of Gina's Dolies on hand!

Hope you enjoyed this altered canvas as much as my Mother and I did.
 Thanks for stopping by.

( Special Order on Eiffel Tower Size)

Altered Frame....Great Grandma & Grandma

It all started with a simple frame. Pasted pieces from and old book and Gesso!
I enjoyed working with Gina's Laser Cuts for this project....again...they just complete the whole look!


There's so many Laser cuts used for this project, I hate that I can only show a few close ups!
 I had this frame all Gesso and ready for something over a year ago, but didn't have a clue where to go after that!  With all the Estate sales I have been visiting this week.....I just had to bring it back out and do something with my Grandma's in mind.
Gina's Doodled Cages is perfect for this, my Grandma loved birds.
 One can never have too many of her Wooden Decorative Keys!
                       
I adore Gina's Dress Forms!


Thanks again for stopping by! Have a Blessed Day!
