Project for SSD

Canvas pillow cover.  I printed a picture of Rhiannon as a baby onto fabric then covered it with iron on fabric laminate.  I hand stitched it to the center of the cover.  The roses are made from torn stripes of pink cotton fabric, rolled into roses.  Tiny vintage pearls are in the centers of each.  I curled the ribbon using a dowel rod, spray starch and tattered angels spray mist in dazzling diamonds.  I also sprayed tattered angels onto the cover using a stencil, but you can't see it because it's all covered up! I also tea stained the big bow and added more seam binding ribbon to the center of it along with a premade tag (Canvas Corp).  I stamped the tag with BABy Love in black and spritzed it with tattered angels.

Baby Banner

I had soo much fun making this banner for my daughters baby room.  First, I cut out the banner shapes.  I used a double layer of duck cloth.  Next I painted on my designs with acrylic paint.  Polka dots, stripes, plaid, and I also used a couple of different stencils I had.  After they dried, I sewed the back layer onto each and aged the edges with brown acrylic paint.  I cut letters out of brown cardstock using my cricut (storybook program).  I clued each letter onto the pennants with elmers fabric and craft glue.  I then attached each pennant to a thin length of brown ribbon and tacked it in place with needle and thread.  That's it!   It turned out so shabby and cute!
