Cherish the Memory: How To Create A Stunning Shabby Chic Wall hanging

Hi all

I have created some shabby chic home decor for Cherish the Memory using My Botanical Garden.

Cherish the Memory: How To Create A  Stunning Shabby Chic Wall hanging

I used a 4 inch sewing loop for the base which i painted with DecoArt Chalky Finish paint. I then popped the pieces out  of the labels sheet and glued them to lengths of twine. I used a few odds and ends to fill up the gaps.

Cherish the Memory: How To Create A Beautiful Nature Card


Hello all

I am back with another make for Cherish the Memory. I am using the lovely My  Botanical Garden Collection by Studiolight to create this mixed media card.


I covered a blank card with patterned paper and then  cut a section out of 

SCRAPMBG03. I added the square to the center of the card and then i added a stencil mask to the background. 



I made up one of the toppers using the decoupage sheets and glued a tag from the label sheet to the back before adding it to the card.


I finished the card off by painting green ink over the stenciled area and adding a bow made from paper twine
