Polkadot Door Designs July Blog Hop & Inspiration Challenge ~ Whoo Love You Wall Hanging

Hello Scrappers and Happy July to all of you.
I can't believe that July is here and we're half way through the year. Time sure does go by so fast.
I'm so excited for this month. I have lots of crafty things in store for you...so be sure to visit often...:D

Start with today.
I'm {guest} designing for Polkadot Door Designs Inspirational Blog Hop Challenge.

And here's the inspirational photo for this month. 

And here's my take on the challenge.....

I created a wall hanging for this Blog Hop Challenge, and I called this Whoo Love You {Wall Hanging}. I had tons of FUN making this..and I have to say the inspirational photo really inspired me.

This project is made from corrugated box. I painted it with a light brown paint and then sprayed some silver shimmer. Patterned papers are from Fancy Pants Design {It's the little things collection}. I added doily, burlap strip, and crinkled seam binding ribbon. The flower is from Michaels Recollection, then I added some pearl and some feathers. I found a free clip art of an owl...colored it with regular colored pencils and OMS.

Now...I'd like to encourage you to participate on this blog hop. There are a couple things you can do...and trust me you want to do all of them...because you can WIN awesome prizes.

Fathers' Day Gift Project

Hi everyone and Happy Sunday.

A week from today we'll be celebrating Fathers' Day. So today, I'm going to show you a special project that I made for my husband.

This project is also my very first creation for Sentimental Sundays Design Team. And this week challenge {#59} is to create something related to Fathers' Day or you can make a Masculine Card.

So, without further ado..here's my project.

the closer looks,

This is {also} my first time working with canvas. It's not much different than regular scrapbooking, except this one is a lot of mod podging to seal the paper and picture.

The size of the canvas is 11x14, and I got it from Michaels when they're on sale. I used a sketch from Artful Delight June Sketch Challenge as a guidance. A simple sketch and totally rocks.

I really love how this project turned out, and my husband loves it so much too {it's kinda hard to keep this one a secret, he always gives me feedback and suggestion on my work}.
If you haven't tried scrapbooking on a canvas, you should give it a try. It's FUN!.

I'd like to submit this for the following challenges:
The Paper Variety ~ For the Guys Challenge
Artful Delight Kit ~ June Sketch Challenge
Polkadot Door Designs ~ June Inspiration Challenge {elements: Scribble Tiles}

Well, that's all for today. All I need to do now is making a Fathers' Day card.
Until then scrappers. Have a wonderful Sunday.

Hugs,
