A New Year & A New Challenge

Happy New Year everyone! Can you believe it is already 2011??? Where does the time go... Since it's a new year, Imaginisce would like to start it off right with some new challenges. Not to worry, I'm sure we'll still throw in a few sketches here and there, but for this month, we'd like to see what you can alter with stuff you have lying around at home and some of your awesome Imaginisce products. Please see the Imaginisce blog for more details on the challenge. Below are some monogram letters I have had hiding in my scraproom for ages, just needed the right kind of inspiration to get them out.

I used the Imaginisce Garden Party collection to cover the letters and then used my Brand spankin' new d-stress tool from Imaginisce to sand the edges of the papers so they are flush with the letters. It was so easy and the result is really nice.

The d-stress is battery operated and super handy with it's three different crafting tips. I know I will find a million uses for this creative tool. It's also small enough to easily store and big enough to get you into to the right kind of crafting trouble.

Don't you just love the Imaginisce Roly Rosies? They are so darn cute and easy to make. They are already perforated and ready to punch out and come with a special rolling tool that makes it easy to create this effect. I merely added some ink to make the edges of the paper stand out more. The netting is from a large Fashion Fabric Flower.

For this embellishment, I combined the Roly Rosie with some of the Garden Party flowers and added some netting from the Fashion Fabric Flowers. The leaves were made with my Martha Stewart leaf punch, some ink and then a bit of bling with my i-rock. I wanted to keep the paper simple and let the embellishing do all the talking.
