Totes...

I have two of them to share today.

Over at Bella Creations

Heather and Shawn

challenged us to do something a little bit different this month. 

Heather, at her group 

Debut des Techniques Graphique,

wanted us to grab 4 images and run over to GIMP to do a little editing. 

Then we were to take the GIMPed out image and print it or iron it on to a tote, pillow case, backpack, t-shirt or some sort of fabric.

Embellish as we like with buttons, lace, flowers, etc...

This is my tote...

I used a frame from Gecko Galz,

the roses and bird are from Graphics Fairy

and a photo of my Grands

(that was taken by my 13yr old daughter).

I also used the Pour Vous texture I got a while ago from 

Kim Klassen Cafe.

I did a lot of hand sewing on this. 

Sewing machine broke and I decided to add lace all around the tote!

LOL
I added a bit of Perfect Pearl mist and Heritage Gold mist, both mixed by me.

A few buttons and there you have tote #1.

I linked this up to Brag Monday at Graphics Fairy
and
Pamela Joy - The Girls Club.

Shawn's challenge, 

at the Viola Ink Group, was titled 

No Paper Stamping.

You may have seen a recent post where I stamped on tiles. 

That was fun!

But...

since I have extra totes here, 

they came in a 3 pkg.

Why not do a little stamping on one of them too?

I may have gone a little crazy with the use of distress inks on this one.

A little wild honey, fired brick, rusty hinge, peeled paint, faded jeans and a touch of vintage photo. 

Before I did the inking I sprayed walnut ink all over it.

I used StazOn in black for the swirl stamping.

I added bling with my Irock.

And there you have tote #2.

Not sure what I will do with tote #3 but right now it is sitting in a tea bath. 

Thanks for stopping by...
