Guest Designer: Cathryn!

Good morning, this is Cathryn from In the Pink.  Today I am guest designing for Emma!  So happy to help fill in for such a sweet lady!
I have a bunch of projects for you today, all with at least one thing in common.  They use some of Emma's dies to make flower embellishments!

My first project is a card I made with the Fun Pockets stamp and die set, the Floral Sentiments stamp set and the Flower Petal die.  I used an epoxy paperclip and the Flower petal die to make a much prettier clip to put on the pocket.  It can be removed and used separately.





The next projects are made from plain flip flops I purchased at Target.  I dressed them up with the Flower Petal and Scallop circle dies and some felt from Papertrey Ink.



I used some heavy duty quilting thread to sew each flower together and then onto the flip flops.



I made these flowers using the stitched circle die.  I cut the felt at each scallop about 3/4 of the way to the center.  The middle flower has one layer from the Flower Petal die on top.

This project is a bookmark I made using a Jumbo paperclip and one of the same flowers from the above flip flops.



I used a needle and thread to whip stitch the flower on to the large clip, then I fabric glued another felt flower over the back to hide the stitching.


Here are the paperclips before I added the flowers.

Supplies I Used:
Fun Pockets stamp and die set, Scallop and Stitched Circle dies,
Flower Petal die and Floral Sentiments stamp set  -  My Creative Time
Lost and Found Two paper pad  -  My Minds Eye
Fine Linen Card Stock and Holiday Mix Vintage Buttons  -  Papertrey Ink
Lemon Tart, Raspberry Fizz and Blueberry Sky Felt  -  Papertrey Ink
Paperclips  -  Walmart
Flip flops  -  Target
3-in-1 Advanced Craft Glue  -  Beacon Adhesives
Pearls from my stash

That is it for me today!  I hope you enjoyed my post and found some useful ideas!  Thank you to Emma for creating such fabulous products for us to use!  Have a great day!!!
Love and Hugs,
Cathryn :)

  2. OMG, what gorgeous projects. So glad I got that die. Love Love Love those flip flops. I've been wanting to decorate some and you've inspired me. Why buy expensive flip flops when you can buy cheap flip flops and make them look expensive. :) Thanks so much for sharing.

  14. Totally awesome job! I love the paperclip idea and your card is awesome. You really showcased the flower die!

  15. I loved the card, but then...Your projects just got better and better! I made flowered paperclips as part of our teacher appreciation gifts. And, I spent a couple hours this past weekend, making flowered headbands for one of my girls. Unfortunately, I used paper for both.
    I don't have Emma's dies, but I'm hoping flip-flop weather will last long enough for me to cut some by hand! Thank you for the inspiration!
    Continued prayers for Emma and her family.
