From Drab to Fab

Our creative team seems to have a flair for embellishing the world around us and Joy is no different. Today she shares with us a beautiful redo of her crafting cabinet. I am shocked at how much vinyl can change something.  Here is her finished project using the “Fall Flourish” shape in the shop.

Not that the cabinet wasn’t beautiful before, but look at the difference. I love how she personalized it to her personal esthetic. I need to think like her more often. Great Job Joy!

At her blog she gives you a great explanation of how to cut and apply vinyl. If you need extra help or instructions then hop over to Joy’s blog.

Bring on the Bling

I always love to see what our creative team member Natalie shares with us because she always surprises me. She used her Cameo to personalize her daughters bike. Such a fabulous idea!

Natalie used Lori’s heart, flower and border files.  They also had to name the bike, so the purp-cycle it became.  Her bike also had the foam and vinyl cover over the handle bars that i turned inside out and added “I heart my bike” to it.

Natalie said “While i put the vinyl on, I found that it was easier to use a more delicate border, only because it was a little easier to bend with the curvature of the bike frame.  It was a little challenging applying it, but I think the more loose and loopy the flowers and the loopy border, just helped that it was a little free fitting on the frame.” so keep that in mind as you are embellishing your own transportation devices.

She shares so many great things on her blog, I hate to steal them all, so make sure and head over to Natalie’s place to check out her instructions and more great photos. Thanks Natalie!

More In Shop Monday at Jessica Sprague

Can you believe it is that time of year already?  I am struggling a bit, time is flying by, but this collection sure helps. Halloween is one of my favorite times of year and this kit is such a fun way to flourish my pictures. Lori has added a touch of blue to this set which I adore. You can pick these sets up at Jessica Sprague today while they are on sale.

First is the paper pack. Both the orange and green patterns have a pattern surrounding the edge or edges. The green has a spider web motif while the orange uses a haunted house. I love the variety of these patterns.

Along with the patterns are these elements. I love the variety or choices in this kit. Some of these elements are also available as SVG’s here at the shop in case you would like to pick some up.

These pieces are sold either individually or as a collection, your choice. Grab them today at Jessica Sprague while they are on sale.  Look at these amazing layouts from Jessica Sprague’s creative team members.
