I have been working diligently to prepare for this week's Catty Cruise. I think you are going to like the projects that I will be sharing. When it was all said and done, I found that I had an extra little something, so I decided to share it with you ahead of time.
I found these adorable pink felt pin cushions at a nationwide fabric and craft retail chain and since they were only $1 each, I just had to buy a few. When you think about how much time would be involved in making one of these, one dollar feels like a bargain.
I used punches and the Whimiscal Words stamp set from the Sale-abration catalog to create a fun little tag embellishment. For added interest, I added some small hearts that I made with the Heart to Heart punch (#113694) made from Real Red and Pretty in Pink card stock. I used a hat pin from the Pretties Kit and added two Real Red hearts (one on the front and one to cover the back) and attached them with mini glue dots and dimensionals. After I punched the larger heart, I placed it inside the new Heart Embosslit in the new Spring Mini Catalog and ran it through the Big Shot. I finished it all off with some black & white gingham ribbon and attached the tag to the pin cushion with a straight pin. I think this will make a fun little hostess gift at my next workshop.
Don't forget to check back on Friday (01/29/10) for more fun and fabulous Catty Cruise projects.
