I haven't had much time this week for any projects (boo hoo!), so I'm sharing some quick tags I made last week using my Cricut: I love this French script image that I purchased off of Etsy (Graphique.etsy.com) and I love how it looks on this Fleur de Lis. I use #80 cardstock so it's a bit thicker than the regular #60 found in most craft stores. I finished them up with some tea-stained seam...
Home Goods Makeover After
April 01, 2012 / BY Okio B Designs
Remember that Home Goods wood tote I posted about last week (here)? Here it is now: I originally wanted to paint it white but I ran out half way through. Plan B: pink.
