Wednesday WOWzer

This might sound so cliche, but I am so excited to share what I have made today!
My daughter could not find any shorts in the stores that she likes(they were all too short) so, we bought pants and I made them into shorts.  Call me a hoarder, but I have a tough time throwing anything away.
Here are the pieces of denim I cut off the pants.

A normal person would have just chucked them in the garbage.  But, I am far from normal!

I thought it would be cool to emboss in white on the denim, I tried that first, but the white actually absorbed too much into the denim.

Here you can see I have all my supplies ready to go.  I have the denim on top of some large acrylic stamping blocks for a hard surface to stamp on.

Here you can see I stamped all the supplies wanted to use, denim, Mary Engelbreit fabric, twill tape, and organza ribbon.

Here is the final product after I put it all together on come thick chipboard and mounted it on some fabulous coordinating Canvas Corp Papers.

I am using the set called:  Let your Heart take Flight.

The lettering is much darker in person, 

I just had a blast making this picture.

It's so fun to find buttons and beads to add to projects like this.

The puffy heart pillow really adds a fun touch to this.

So there you have it, my attempt to WOW you!!

How did I do??

This has been my version of from Trash to Treasure, with Jeannie from The Polka Cabana.
