Fall Door Hanger by Barb

My house might not be clean (who's got time for that?!), but it is decorated for the season!

I had fun making this autumnal door hanger. I love that Gina's Designs not only carries bits and pieces to put on crafty items, but the bases that are so often needed to begin a project. Such is the case with these sturdy Door Hangers.

I began my project by using a putty knife to spread orange, brown, and white acrylic paint on the door hanger. I spritzed it with both copper and gold irRESISTibles to give it some shimmer. Then I set it aside to dry thoroughly. While it was drying, I chose some leaves from the Fall Shape Set. I dabbed various colors of acrylic paint on these as well. Then I sprinkled them with matching glitters. 

Using those leaves as well as some silk leaves and a paper flower that I have in my "craft stash", I then assembled the piece with glue. 

I felt like the piece still needed something - a little more color and texture. So, I dabbed on Distress Stickles to both the background and the leaves. I also stamped on the branches using Chocolate Brilliance ink.

Now the inside of my home is as colorful as the outside is! I definitely need to get more of the door hangers so I can make one for every holiday and season. I'm already plotting out a Christmas design in my mind!

Winter Door Hanger Featuring The Robin's Nest

Good morning, Deann here with a winter door hanger using The Robin's Nest paper- Winter Snowflake.

 The paper, snowman and Frosty are from The Robin's Nest

 The added pom-pom fringe along the bottom of the door hanger looks like snowballs!

 White gesso was  rubbed along the edges.

 I used lots and lots of chipboard snowflakes from Gina's Designs.

Thanks for taking a look!

Hello friends! Kim here today, and  I have a very special little designer to share with you; my Grandson Brayden.

Brayden is 5 years old and loves to paint and color. When he came to my house for Christmas, he wanted to do some crafting. I got out the new boy's only set from Gina's and he decided to make a door plaque for his bedroom using the All Boy Shape Set and the door hanger.

He painted all the chipboard himself and choose all the colors that he liked. He wanted the robot piece to be holding a kite, and why not? Robots like kites too!

After all the pieces were painted, he chose two different blue colors of paint and mixed them up and painted the door hanger.  Once dried I helped him glue all the pieces on where he wanted them to go.

And here is the finished product! You can see he is very happy with the outcome!

I am very proud of my Grandson. He did a wonderful job on his door hanger. This is the wonderful thing about Gina's Chipboard items; they are great for any age to play with!
