Oct. Design Team Reveal

October Design Team Reveal (Giveaway)

Remember how it works? As part of Lollishops design team, I receive a package of great supplies in the mail from a sponsor, (in this case Crazy Heart ), and begin to create.  

The first item I made was a journal, or guest book. Although, I don't normally work with orange colors,  I really like it. It is perfect for the month of October.


The cover of the journal is covered with a sheet of ephemera. I had items left, so I went ahead and made a second item. The second item is a photo holder. The picture can be changed as you wish, or use it for the month of October and attach a Halloween picture.    

I will be hosting a giveaway for the picture holder, so leave a comment. I will also be drawing a winner from my Sept. reveal, so visit my Sept. post here and leave a comment. 

Visit Crazy Heart to purchase supplies.

Fall Design Team

As part of Lollipops Design Team, I received a wonderful supply kit from Icing on the Cake Studio.

This banner:

was created from this kit:

The kit contained vintage wallpaper, copies of ephemera, paper roses, sheet music, a glittered heart, and pink dotted fabric. 

Hanging out with jars of supplies, the banner looks cotton candy sweet. It would also look great on a window, or wall.   

If you're are interested in purchasing, contact me and I'll give you the details. I will also be giving away an item of my choosing for anyone who is nice enough to leave a comment, (and has taken the time to read this far!).

Harvest Blessings,

Ele

Fall Design Team

I am so honored to be part of the wonderful Fall Design Team at Lollishops. My studio has been vacant and started eerily whispering my name a few weeks ago. Now, it seems to be SCREECHING my name.  Lovingly appropriate? I think so, as Halloween is only two months away.   

Still. If you know me. My creations won't screech. They will whisper elegance. 

If you want to know more about this great group of ladies Wish me luck! 

Much love,

Ele

O Christmas Tree

A Christmas Tree Wish...

in a shadow box sparkles with neutral colored ephemera. 

Ephemera (plural): paper items (posters, tickets), that were originally meant to be discarded after use but have since become collectibles. 

Shades of soothing cream, beige, and black along with the velvety texture of vintage wallpaper sit behind a glass frame. Can be hung on the wall, or free standing on a table.

 

"O Christmas Tree,  O Christmas Tree....."

A few new items are finding their way into my shop.

I am also adding a few supplies, such as paper posies, so that you can use them on your own creations. Currently Lollishops shopping cart is not working, so if you want anything from my store, just e-mail me.

Blessings,

Ele
