My NEW Decor Elements Bathroom!

I'm sorry for how pitiful my posts have been! July 1st hit and the crazy schedule began. We've had some large Customer Events in addition to our Team's New Year Kick off Event… there's just been no time! But the GOOD news is, I was able to sit down and PLAY last night, and have a bunch of new cards to show you using brand new product! I'll be sure to post them this week… but this week is also going to be a little busy as my 7-month old nephew has come to stay with us for the week!

Today, I wanted to share with you what my busy schedule has included! My Studio bathroom has received a HUGE makeover!!!!! Here's a look at what the bathroom looked like a week ago:

Quite the mess, hunh!? Let me just say that I have gained a whole new set of skills… I did all of the wall patching, etc. myself!! Here's a look at the bathroom after:

Te-he-he-he-he!!!! I'm THRILLED!!!!!!!! Just LOVE these Decor Elements:

The big chocolate one is brand new, it's called "Wild Flower Bouquet" — I used the Medium Sized Chocolate Chip, Item #121664 for $21.95. A smaller and a larger version is available, they also come in Crumb Cake or White! The butterflies are not new, but I thought the artwork of them went really well with the bouquet so decided to combine the two. The shower curtain was my inspiration for the color scheme! The butterfly Decor Elements are called "Flutter" – I used the Rose Red Medium, Item #117824 and the Tempting Turquoise Medium, Item #117825. These elements are available in a larger size and are also available in Dark Gray, Chocolate, So Saffron and White.

I applied the butterflies so that they flew right over the mirror:

TIP: When you're trying to line up an assortment of images, try pinning them up with Painter's Tape so that you can move them around and play with the design without it being permanent:

Glass Decor Ornaments

A couple of days ago I shared with you the mitten/scarf/hat set that I made for the Gift Exchange for my Team Christmas Party. Today I'm going to share with you the Glass Ornaments that I made as a gift for everyone who attended! I'm also going to try to get them to my long distance 1st level downline that couldn't attend — just not to sure how to ship glass!

ALY'S HELPFUL HINTS:

• I created the snowflakes using Raw Decor Element Sheets. These sheets are come in a roll, you get two 12" x 24" sheets of Vinyl and two 12" x 24" sheets of transfer tape. The sheets come in Kraft, Chocolate, White and Dark Gray.
• These sheets were designed for use with the Big Shot, but I found a way to make then work with punches! At first it didn't seem possible because the punch wasn't cutting through the layers — but then I flipped the Decor Sheet over so that I was looking at the Grid Side instead of the Vinyl side and voila! It worked!!!!! It's funny that it matters what side you're looking at, but it does. The punch that I used is the Snowflake Punch.
• The inside of the ornaments are stuffed with basket paper stuffing – an easy way to add a splash of color!
• For each button attachment, use a Mini Glue Dot.

WHAT TO ORDER:

Chocolate Decor Element Sheets (114337), Fresh Favorites II Buttons (107422), Jumbo Snowflake Punch (116628), White Gel Pen (105021), Mini Glue Dot (103683) and Mistletoe Ribbon Orignals (116792)
