It's time for another Tour de Freaks. The tour doesn't officially start till May 20th, so if you're here to view my post, make sure you check back so you can view the tour in all its glory.
If you've already started the tour, then you've probably come from viewing Dawn Olchefske blog and her fabulous creations.
This month, I've created some very patriotic projects. Here's something that can be used as a table decoration, or better yet, to brighten up those gray office cubicles. All text that you see is from the "Red, White & Blue" jumbo wheel. SO much versatility if you just ink up the text you want and wheel it out. It's like 15 extra stamp sets for free!
The basket uses the new Lattice embossing folder. Having this container textured REALLY made a difference.
Are you curious about the basket? It's the egg template basket from Stampin' Up! I'll post the pattern on the 21st for those interested.
The next project uses the new jumbo wheel in the traditional way, simply wheeled and mounted.
The stars are from the Seeing Stars stamp set. What would fit more than this patriotic wheel?
Below I tied a little mini vintage tag, also from the Summer mini and embellished it with cardstock layers.
I hope you've enjoyed my projects. Now, hop on over to Janine Tinklenberg's blog by selecting the button below to view her VERY creative projects!
