Fall Stick Pins

-
Hello everyone.  Thanks so much for stopping by today.  I have a "Little Thing" project that turned out to be so fun and pretty.


The project was to make stick pins for a swap over at CraftHappens.ning.com.  Here are the rules:

Make a 2.5-3" stick pin
Use at least 4 different things on your pins
Choose any color
Make 3 sets of 3 pins
(They can be the same or different, but have to be in the same color scheme)

I made my holder from die cuts from the "Fall" Tim Coffey set by K and Company.  The little tag made by stamping the sentiment from the K. Andrew Designs "Fall-o-ween" stamp set in Black Soot distress ink.  I then inked around the edges of the sentiment box with Ripe Persimmon and Seedless Preserves distress inks.  Be sure to check out the video for a full tutorial on making the pins as well as the little holders.


I am linking this project to the following challenges:


Also, don't forget about the current "Anything Goes" challenge over at 3 Girl JAM.  You can link up a project for a chance to win some prizes.  Thanks for stopping by and remember to take some time to enjoy the little things.

Welcome to my little contribution to the Operation Write Home Blog Hop.  I am so happy that you stopped by today.  This is the first time that I've participated in an OWH Blog Hop, but I have hopped to other blogs during these hops before.  I can't wait to see all the inspiration out there. Today, I have chosen the Bonus Sketch #12 to use with this hop.  It is a sketch that my daughter chose to have me make her thank you notes for graduation before I even knew the hop details.  What perfect timing!  Be sure to scroll down to the previous post for a full tutorial and to see my daughter's thank you note.  Same technique and sketch, but a totally different card. I used the following supplies: Operation Write Home Bonus Sketch #12 K and Company - Ancestry.com paper Memento Tuxedo Black ink OWH / Hero Art stamp Stampendous - Happy Messages stamp set Thanks so much for stopping by today. Remember to take some time to enjoy the l...
