Since I arrived home from Silver Bella last fall, I have been really trying to take more time to make some art pieces just for the fun of it. The Sugar*Sugar shop has been busy, (thanks for the love!), and when it gets busy, I tend to lose sight of the whole point~ making art for fun, for catharsis, for you and for me!
I'm just going to show you this one project today because I have a TON of house work to do~ YUK!
I started this banner a few weeks ago and little by little worked on it when I had a few moments to myself... I was SO happy with the results! I made it to sell, so I had that in mind while making it, that I wanted to use some of my favorite supplies!
I used pretty papers, vintage trims and velvet ribbons from One Hundred Wishes, thank you Andrea!
Vintage millinery flowers, vintage pink candles, itty bitty trinkets and treasures...
Pure Silver Glass Glitter, vintage faded pink crepe paper, paper flowers...
misc. scrapbook embellishments, vintage forget me nots, and a sweet little ballerina!
So FUN!
Also, GOOD NEWS, I have decided to go ahead and take a leap and open my very own web boutique!!
I am working with the CRAZY TALENTED Hope Wallace of Paper Relics on the designs and details. I'll give y'all more information as soon as I have some to share, so wish me luck in the mean time!!
YIPPY!
Chat soon,
Analise
So pretty, Analise! Lots of good wishes on your new web shop!
