DT Projects to share .....

Well the first week of school (and back to work for me!) is over .. and boy am I tired!! Hoping once I'm back into the swing of it it won't be so bad ... but this week was VERY tiring!!!
Anyway whilst we are talking Back to School, I wanted to share my first DT Projects for my2angels with you.
This month we did projects for Back to School and Valentines ..... now I can't share my Valentine LO's yet but I can share a BTS LO, an OTP and a Valentine card. You can click on all the photos for a better look and all the products stated have links back to the item in the my2angles shop.

First up the BTS page ...
For this I used Pink Paislee and Sassafras Lass patterned papers and Coredinations cardstock. I embossed the cardstock with the music Cuttlebug folder and lightly sanded it back so you could see the music pattern. The title is white chipboard letters, which I sanded and inked lightly, together with those mini letters that I use ALL the time and love so much!!! The cute little books and the 'shelf' are made from the sass paper and I added some chipboard photo corners for bookends! To finish off I hand stitched some schooly stuff .....

Next is a door hanger I made for my oldest sons bedroom door
I covered a MDF door hanger, that I bought a while back from Bunnings, with a Kaisercraft paper using mod podge. I've then used some white and black alphas and yep .. those little alphas again, a different colour though!! The 'black' chipboard letters are inked and embossed black ... they were originally an aqua colour so you see with embossing powder you can change pretty much anything to the colour you want. Tracy has a heap of different coloured embossing powders in store now. The front of the hanger has a die cut skull and bones and I've also used one of my2angels skull charms (so cute!!) tied onto the letter R with ribbon. Lastly I have used a chipboard arrow which I covered with twine and then inked for depth. Only thing is, I now have another to make as my youngest son wants one for his room too!
My Valentine card!!!! I made what I would call a 'crisp and clean' simple card using one of my fav colour combos ... black and red. Who am I kidding I love black with any colour!!! So of course I used more of the same black cardstock which I embossed with the Cuttlebug script folder. I also used the same white chipboard letters  as my BTS LO, and the pp is XOXO by Carolees Creations. I sanded the edges of the paper to make it look like it was mounted on white card and then I finished off with some my2angels own black velvet ribbon with silicon and red felt embossed hearts.
and lastly in an attempt to share more of my cards, is one I made for my SIL whose birthday it is today ... Happy Birthday Deb, hope you have a great day!
Phew ... OK thats all for now don't forget I still have my Valentine LO's to show later in the month so check back soon for that. In the meantime check out all the other lovely DT creations here on the my2angels blog.
Thanks for taking the time to look ..... I'll be back with more soon ... W :)
