I am now officially addicted to Pinterest. Here are a few of my re-creations and some ideas that it inspired.
Sorry Kiersten if you look at this before your package arrives! I made this for my bff. She loves sock monkey's so I thought this would be fun and cute for her little guy. Used the Cricut Word Collage for the alphabet, on black vinyl. I used primary color buttons from Joann's. Sock Monkey paper attached to a 12 x 12 canvas from Hobby Lobby. I used thick red and white polk-a-dot ribbon to hang (not pictured).
I made this for my friend who LOVES! to travel. I used the Cricut Word Collage on black vinyl. Two sheets of random paper I had to create sort of a beach serene background. I used some ribbon to hide where the paper met. Attached the paper to a 6 x 16 canvas from Hobby Lobby. I attached a thick piece of brown ribbon for hanging (not pictured).
My sister asked that I make something for our dad for Christmas. This is what we decided on. Each frame was bought in a package at Joann's. I used fish themed paper and then some pebbles to tie them together in the middle. I used some green ribbon to attach all the frames together then thick brown ribbon to hang.
Sorry for this sad picture. I used the Cricut Word Collage on black vinyl and blue? LED battery lights. The vision in my head was that the lights would 'glow' through the words. The LED lights are sort of 'weird' so it didn't look like I thought. My co-worker loved it though. I told her she could put a candle in there and it might look a little better, and she could use the lights for something else :)
This is my Pinterest recreation. I had all those Starbucks jars left over from little K's party and I didn't have the heart to through them out. I put sort of an off-white paint (all I had in the garage) and swirled it around in the jars. What an experience WITHOUT a funnel. I have since bought a funnel from the dollar store. :) I used Cricut Plantin cart for the individual letters and Cricut Stretch Your Imagination for the snowflake. I twisted some sheer gold ribbon and solid red ribbon (from Joann's) around the top to hide what happens when you don't have a funnel to pour the paint, ha, and then added some Christmas picks from Hobby Lobby.
Lastly, another idea from Pinterest. :) These frames are MUCH larger than the original idea and these are just blank frames, $1 at Micheals, with no glass front. I used the Cricut Plantin cart for the individual letters on black vinyl. I used the scrap paper to cut out a little something to add to each frame. The top is a dove (for peace) cut from the Cricut Beyond Birthday's Cart; the middle is a tree cut from the Cricut Stretch Your Imagination cart; and the last one is a heart cut from the Blackout Shadow feature on the Cricut Beyond Birthday's cart. It is all attached with red ribbon, from Joann's.
