Monday Madness....Imagine That! ~ Episode 257

Good Morning & HAPPY MONDAY and Happy Columbus Day!;) I'm surprised that my boys don't have today off:( Anyways, I hope all of you had a FABULOUS weekend, I know I did! Welcome to another "Monday Madness....Imagine That"!  Well, usually I use my "Imagine" on Mondays.... but, I wanted to use a different pattern paper that I have had for a LONG TIME now! It is a stack by DCWV called "Lace & Linen"! WOW.....what a pretty stack this is & I thought it would be PERFECT for my"rosette pencil" I made today! When I had made my first "Rosette" project HERE I had gotten several emails/FB messages from my bloggy friends wanting to know if there was another cartridge they can use besides "Art Philosophy" to create a similar Rosette like the ones I made HERE! In my video below, I explain to you how to search using "My Cut Search" to find all the borders each cartridge has! The BEST part about this site is that you can see the actual handbook for each cartridge AND they even tell you what page it is on! HOW COOL IS THAT?!!;) You can ALSO search the word "border" using your "Gypsy Girl", but it's not as accurate as "My Cut Search"!
For all of our projects today, I wanted my design team to do something reflecting "Breast Cancer Awareness" month! So we all used my stamp set "Race For a Cure" which...if you purchase this set, $2 of the sales for each stamp set will be donated to the Susan G Komen for the cure!

In lieu of all the questions I received, I decided to do another "Rosette Pencil" using the "Accent Essential" cartridge! I wanted to do something a little different w/this pencil & I thought it came out soo PRETTY!;) I showcased it in a votive holder so you can see how ADORABLE this would look as a centerpiece for ANY occasion! I think these would ALSO look so CUTE as a party favor for a "PRincess" party..... there are soooo many possibilities & I just LOVE IT!;)

My favorite part of my pencil today is the "Tulle", I think it was just the finishing touch!;)

Here is my video for you!;)

Now onto my FABULOUS Design Team!;)


Miss Jen!




You can see my video HERE how exactly I made these rosettes!;)
I hope you enjoy everything that you saw here today! Please visit my designer's blogs & leave them some much deserved L-O-V-E!;) Have a FABULOUS day & I will see you all back here soon! xoxo's

  7. Super cute pencil idea! Love it!!

    P.S. Schools aren't ignoring Columbus Day. They traded the Columbus Day holiday for the day after Thanksgiving years and years ago. So instead of today off, they have the long turkey day weekend. Little trivia for you on this Columbus Day. ;)
