I have been crafting this summer, despite my being MIA from my blog. I joined a "Handmade Secret Sister Swap" and this is what I made for my sister(s) - I took 2 spots.
Project #10
These are handmade Carnation Peony Cabochon embellishments. I used Premo (fimo clay) and silicone molds (found
here) from Mold Muse.

Project #11
Porcelain Cameos
These were made with an air dry porcelain compound pressed into silicone molds. Once the porcelain was dry I painted the background with acrylic paint and brushed the relief with white acrylic paint.

Project #12
Handmade Flowers
The flowers on the left were made with Websters Pages' netting, tissue paper and beads for the center. I ran the netting and tissue paper through the Cuttlebug using Tim Hotz' s Tattered Flowers die. I then layered the tissue and netting flowers and held them together with a singe needle and thread stitch. Finally, I sewed the bead in the middle. The flowers on the right were made with the Flower Shoppe cartridge and my Cricut machine. I used a glue and a brad to hold these blossoms together. The paper was left over from other projects.
Close-up:
More flowers, the middle is made with cardstock and flower die and the two smaller were cut with Cricut and Prima bling is used for the center.
Project #13
The gift tag, I used alcohol ink for the edges. The background paper is a page out of a novel lightly stamped with a dandelion image ({ippity}). The sentiment says "for you."
Thanks for looking!!
