I was futzing around this weekend, attempting to decorate my extra bath. I had purchased a wall hanging and the space just seemed to call out for something extra. I decided to make up these flowers to decorate. I used black Archival Ink and white pigment ink to stamp using my Heartfelt Creations Arianna Blooms stamp and then cut out using the coordinating die. I used a deep purple and a light lilac cardstock base for each. Some of the centers are a ball of Art Institue black glitter which is ever so sparkly and some are black die cut centers from the coordinating die set.
I then cut these swirls out of black, sticky backed vinyl with my Cricut. I used a bit of transfer paper to position them onto the painted wall. We then hung them on the wall and the plaque with some re-positionable glue dots. As usual, I made a bunch extra that I didn't use. Now the question is whether I save them assuming that the humidity natural to the bathroom will make them age prenaturally or do I use up those extras knowing I can always make more if the need arises. It is such a tough decision! Guess I'll keep them for a short time, judge the replacement timing and then use those extras up.
What home projects have you been working on lately? Any way to incorporate your crafting into the decorations?
Beautiful and very elegant!
