"A" Angelle

This was for a gift that my friend needed.  Yes, the same friend that is ALWAYS keeping me busy.  But I love her for it.  I get to try out new techniques & re-invent these letters every time I make one.

Details:
I used my Gypsy and Cricut to design & create this project.
I painted the letter with acrylic paint.  Then used 3 shades of pink acrylic paint & a flower stamp (sorry don't remember who made it).  Then I sealed the letter with Krylon Preserve It.
Cuts:
Name:  Simply Sweet
Girl w/ Easel:  A Child's Year
Palette & Brush, ART piece, & Pennant:  Locker Talk
Brownies:  All Mixed Up
I added Glossy Accents to the paint palette & brush to make it look wet.
I also added white pen stitch marks & doodle dots to some of the other cuts to add interest.

Thanks for looking. Questions & comments are always welcomed. Lori

"V" Victoria

Here is the last one I had to get finished for a little bit.  I still have others to post (just can't do it yet).  So, ya'll will have some more letters to look forward to for a little while.
This letter was made for the little sister of one of the girl's that I made a letter for last year.  Victoria & Julia (you can see her letter HERE) share a room.  So they wanted the letters to be similar.  Victoria is only 2 & just started to take dancing, so we went with that theme.  We also wanted to keep the butterfly & flower thing going.  I did use a different butterfly & made the flower a little different but they are still similar.  After all, we want it to be for Victoria - not just a copy of Julia's letter.
Details:
I used my Gypsy & Cricut to design & create this project.
Cartridges Used:  Twinkle Toes, Accent Essentials, Simply Sweet, & Cupcake Wrappers
I added gems to the flowers & stickles to the stars, flower & butterflies.
