I made a craft to participate in Challenge #20 at
Softpencil on
PCP . The challenge was to make
Anything but a card
I wanted to use this lovely little cook
mouse, this image it´s so cute! so I made an apron to dress a bottle of wine. The sentiment reads
For you! in spanish and I chose those colors because I think it could be use either as a male or a female gift. I put some eyelets to tie the ribbons, cut and glued a pocket and added some stitches with embroidery floss. I colored the image with colored pencils, blended the mouse fur with vaseline and attached it on the side of the apron with foam tape.
Coloring the image was hard... I wanted a lighter shade of gray and I could not do it, maybe next time... but I won´t give up! This apron was easy and fun to make, I should do it more often it is so versatile and it can be easily converted into a card. I found the pattern on google images but if you have problems e-mail me and I´ll send it to you.
Everywere I go visiting in this digi world all are wishing for the winter to end... I´m wishing that too since winter started! I like summer time better ... please, remind me I say this when I complain about the 110 F (42 C) next summer! So I´m joining the same spirit towards spring and I made a
Celebrate Spring card
Dustin Pike´s
Doodle Dragon Studio Challenge blog asked us to create something to show that his
Dragons are girly too! I used one of Dustin´s cute dragons freebies. I really love this one! it is so sweet... the lovely patterned paper is from DCWV.
The image is colored with colored pencils. I doodled the border with some kids markers and paper pierced the centers of the loops. I added also some tiny butterflies cut with a paper punch and paper pierced their trails.
And.... I got another award! that was very sweet of you Nancy! thank you so much, you´d never know how flattered I am
and I´m going to pass it to
Marilyn,
Terri and
Pauline! you are such great crafters and I´m so glad to get to know you.

Hi Ileana! I so love your spring bottle! It is wonderful. YOu are so kind to share the blog award with me, thank you! I really appreciate the thought, and the comments you leave at my blog!
Our summers here in Australia are harsh. 100-110F is so normal for us. Iu hate it. I would so love to have a cold or wet or snowy winter! I'm not a summer person.
hugs from Australia!
