Shopping our Stash #261 - You are Matchless!

We have a really fun challenge for you this week at Shopping our Stash - to create a matchbook or matchbox, any size or shape you like!  This was definitely a challenge for me, since I hadn't made one before (and this took a couple tries):

Supplies: paper from AC; everything else from stash

The box measures about 1 7/8" by 2.5" - perfect for a little trinket!

Come link up by Monday, July 25 :)

Don't forget to check out what my talented team mates have created:

Sisterhood of Snarky Stampers - N is for...

...not a card! I know, two non-card projects in a row on my blog...I can't believe it either! The Snarky Sisters would like to see any project that isn't a card - the sky's the limit! I've been saving this palette since January. I picked up some paint brushes at the dollar store simply because they were packaged with it :) It was a definite challenge to photograph:

There are so many supplies involved that I'm not going to list them all. because I'll miss most of them. Crackle paints and crackle embossing paste, stencils, stamps, chipboard, tissue, distress stains, etc etc etc.

I consider this a work in progress, so you will probably see it again with more details :)

Check out the amazing Sisterhood's creations -

Shopping our Stash #253 - Anything but a Card!

This week at Shopping our Stash we've got a challenge outside my comfort zone - anything but a card! I'm not a total stranger to creating little pieces of home decor, but it's definitely not my go-to. This little piece has sparked some creativity though, and I'm working on a few other pieces!

Supplies: literally everything from stash - the canvas board is 4" square for reference

This little canvas board has been kicking around for ages waiting for me to have an idea - tada! I stitched the buttons to the rosette, and then used super sticky glue dots to adhere  it all to the canvas board. Still need to figure out how to hang it up, but for now it's tucked into my craft shelves :)

Check out what the rest of my awesome teammates made!
