The design team members of the Paper Crafters Sampler have now taken those fabulous aprons into the world of paper crafting. We've created another special blog hop for you this month featuring "Adorning Aprons". The aprons are designed using the apron template available in the upcoming March issue "Le Jardin" (The Garden).
This month we have something extra for viewers. Each design team member will have a drawing for a FREE copy of the March Paper Crafters Sampler. Just leave your comments on our Adorning Aprons by March 3rd. The winners will be posted on March 4th. Now, let's move on to my Adorning Apron samples.
Well, if you're going to dig in the dirt you might as well do it in style, right? The frilly lace and shapely heart pocket will keep my spirits up if I come across half of a worm will digging.
The Apron template wraps around to use as a card and is designed to fit into an A2 envelope.
I'm a large fan of Mary Engelbreit. This next sample was designed trying to mimic her famous cherry image and bright color schemes.
The leaves tucked into the pocker are from the new SU! Two step bird punch. The cherries were embossed, cut out and lifted with dimensionals.
I hope you've enjoyed Adoring Apron samples. Don't forget to leave a comment to have your name entered for a Free March issue of Paper Crafters Sampler.
Hop on over to Lisa Hensley blog to view her fabulous take on our apron template.

These are so creative! I absolutely love the cherries on the pocket of the second apron. Too, too cute!
I love the idea of making a card out of these. When I was growing up my Mother made and sold aprons. I will have to case some of these and send her a card or two. Thanks for the idea. Sherry

Love your aprons. So simple yet elegant. Thanks for sharing.
I love the sweet pea flowers on the first apron. They remind me of my mother who always grew a row or two of sweet peas on our picket fence. Can't wait to try my hand at these cute designs.

I love the idea of creating an apron card! I recently joined PCS and have enjoyed the creativity of all of the designers. I was wondering how to incorporate this concept into making an apron similar to these for the girl bear...simply downsize the diminsions....hmmm sounds like something I should try. :)
These are adorable! I never would have thought of this! How cute!!!
