creative crew challenge-domestic goddess

another challenge this month from the creative crew is based 

on the domestic goddess range from stampin up 

because of pre-order restrictions here in oz and stamp set availability i have had to think a bit out of the square to bring you my challenge this month! 

now anyone who knows me knows i am NOT a sewer

i am the.WORST. sewer in the world

-just ask my poor poor form 2 textiles teacher from havelock north intermediate

but i do own a sewing machine and do know what material looks like so thought i would give it a go

 so for the challenge i made a birthday gift for a very special domestic goddess i know

i used the new flirtacious material from stampin up to pretty up some 

plain tea towels and a boring old $2 shop apron

i decorated some jars and made a notice board from an old cupboard door 

 the cupboard door (thank you ikea seconds area!) 

has got some speciality delicate doilies paper added to it-i have had to sponge the paper black

and have added some stamped images to the back with staz-on....

this is so you can write on the glass with white board marker.

down the bottom i have used the simple letters die cuts to write one of my favourite sayings

 with the budget ikea tea towels i have just added a strip of material to them to make them prettier

 the ikea spice jars got decorated with some delicate doilies dsp and some blossom party flower die cuts

i added some ribbon and rhinestone brads.

 my apron was a $2 shop bargain and i have added material to it.

i also added some cut out letters that i have badly sewn on to the apron (on purpose!!)

and tied extra fabric to the edges.

 i also made a matching coat hanger for the tea towels to rest on or the apron.

i used the delicate doilies dsp and blossom party die cuts with rhinestone brads and ribbon

phew!

hope the birthday girl likes her present

remember to come and visit the creative crew at split coast stampers

cheers ears
