Iphone Tetris Case

Good evening!

Today I've been inside the whole day reading "Fifty shades of Grey", finally. It's hard to put the book down, I usually fall asleep after 10 pages. But in barely two days I've read 140 pages! Now I could use some air, haha!

Anyway, over to the hobby-stuff. Another gift I created for my bf was this Iphone case with studs. I looked around on Pinterest for some cool new shapes - and then it hit me: Tetris!

Firstly I sprayed the studs with spray (the kind you can use for when the nailpolish should dry faster). I've used three differend kinds of studs. On some of them I cut the things on the back off or just bent them in. 

I then glued them on with superglue for it to really last long. You can see I also glued around all the studs, also for lasting longer since the phone goes in and out of your pocket/bag quite often.

Need I say that he loved it?!

Washi drawers

Hello there!

The washi tape is here to stay and I have to say that I wasn't so fond of it in the beginning. Now I really like it, although my collection still is quite small. Before I've showed you how I decorated my Silhouette with washi tape (you can see more on that here: Washi tape on Silhouette).

I also spiced up my drawers on my workspace with what? You guessed right: washi tape!

I've used three different colors and patterns. More of a summer theme. After applying the tape I painted it over with Modge Podge to keep the tape in place (the green one didn't want to stick).

And a close-up: 

Since fall is here, I thought I'd change it up a little. Brown washi tape with golden stripes. Love it! 

This time I put the tape horizontal to get another effect than before. 

This time I didn't paint it over with Modge Podge cause it sticks great so far. 

Thanks for stopping by!

Welcome to the world

My best friend gave birth to a baby girl about 7 months ago. I wasn't home at the time, but still wanted to create something to say "welcome" to the baby. This is what I created: 

The frame is from IKEA, the giraffs from an old wallpaper and the letters from Webster's Pages = quick and easy!

Thanks for stopping by!

Christmas craft

Last year I decorated these candles and wrapped them into cellophane, as a little give-away to my friends. It was really easy; I bought inexpensive candle decorations. Picked them apart and together again with some wire and then put it around the candle. Done :)

Wonder what I'm gonna do this year... Any ideas?

Have a nice evening!

Clock and Letter I

Made a clock (from a canvas) for my nieces 8th birthday. Used my Silhouette Cameo for the black numbers and to make a stencil for the chevron pattern. And then just messed around with acrylic color, distress ink, nail polish :P and more.

The thing with the name on it is supposed to be a cardboard letter, "I" as in Isabelle.

Made some of the flowers from fabric yarn (if it's called like that?) and just put brads in the middle. My Cameo was also here put to work to make the glitter letters, and I have to say that I had to set the knife to 5 and it still didn't go through!! The CS was quite thick, but I could still peal the letters out and use them.

On this side I put a anonymous quote in "The only make-up a girl needs is her smile". Now I just hope she takes that with her in her heart. :)

Have a nice afternoon!
