Art Desk Organizer by Kim and Home Decor for Fall by Debbie

Hello Crafters!  Today we have two designers on the blog.  First up is Kim with a desk top storage solution  that's both beautiful and functional.

Happy Friday friends! Today I would like to share one of the great organizational items available at Gina's Designs. This is the Desk Organizer 1.  I am super happy with how it came out, and it allows for extra storage on top of my desk, which is always a good thing!

As you can see there is lots of space for storing brushes, pens, inks, markers and anything else you'd like. This organizer has roomy spaces to put all your art supplies and also some drawers that are nice and deep as well.

The Organizer has 2 drawers in front which is good for storing all those extra little items you need to have handy when you are creating.  I filled mine with some 1 inch ink cubes that I have been looking for a place to keep, this worked out perfectly!

Below here you can see the side and back of the organizer. I used one of my favorite paper lines to decorate it, then added some of the Tulip borders and a fun butterfly to finish it off.



 Below here you can see the front of the drawers to which I added some metal filigree pieces and a handle. I also stamped the word "ART" on a piece of paper and framed it up with one of the Filigree Frames. I embossed the frame with some Stampendous shabby white embossing powder.

I have already filled my my desk organizer and it is a really handy thing to have on my desk top.  It doesn't take up too much room but has tons of great spaces in it for storage, check out all the great storage solutions in Gina's Store

Nest up is Debbie to share a gorgeous display piece to celebrate the Fall season.

Hello everyone, this is Debbie with you today.  Fall is my favorite time of year...the smells, the beautiful flowers and the cool mornings and warm days.  I always decorate for Fall and this year is no exception.  Gina's Designs made that easy for me this year.  Gina has the cutest Fall themed chipboard designs in her store and I had a great time creating this project.

This project is one of my favorites....I used several techniques to create this project.  For the Scarecrow I simply used some scrap fabric that has been sitting around forever and dressed my scarecrow.

Here is the directions for the chipboard pumpkins and banner kit.

Step 1. Color your chipboard with ink. I used Distress ink in Rusty Hinge , Dyed Tea and Shabby Shutters. 

Step 2. Cover the chipboard with VersaMark Ink.

Step 3. Cover with Utee Clear Embossing Enamel and heat.

Step 4. Spray with your favorite spray inks and reheat.

Mixed Media Canvas by Kim A Gina's Designs and KSP Cross Promo Project

Hi Crafty Friends! I have some fun projects to share with you today. First up is a mixed media canvas I have created featuring our Cross Promotion Partner Kitty's Scrap Post Digital Paper.  I have used the "French Seamstress" paper for this canvas.

I started off by ripping one of the sheets of paper and distressing it for the background. I then layered on some Shimmerz paints and sprays, and some of the Shimmerz Texturez which I added to some of my stencils. I then added some gorgeous laces to complete the background.

Here you can see a close up of the dress form from the Vintage Seamstress Shape Set. I added more of the KSP paper to decorate the dress form, and I also cut out the butterflies from the paper and decorated them. I also used other pieces from the shape set, the Sew sentiment, and some of the buttons as well.

The flourishes are from the feathery flourish shape set and the tulip borders and corners which I added dimensional paint to, then some gold glaze paint, and some patina gilders paste to complete the look.

Finally in these photos above, you can see some of the texture in the background, and some of the pretty flowers and accessories I have added. I hope you like my project for Gina's Designs.

Trim Organizer By Bonnie

Hi Everyone, and Happy Friday! Today we have Guest Designer Bonnie, who has created this stunning Trim Organizer. She has created something very beautiful, and used several of our chipboard items to decorate it.

You can see above here that Bonnie has created a lovely shabby vintage look and used some of the words and phrases, cardstock doilies, clock hands, tulip scroll corners and even half of a steampunk heart on the right hand side and adorned it with some beautiful flowers as well!

We love how she has decorated the box with all these gorgeous trims, laces and flowers!

Here are more of the words and phrases used on the lace spools that come with the trim organizer, and she has also added some more of the tulip scroll corners in the back.

Here is a side view of the box, where Bonnie has decorated it with one of our flourish pieces and more lace and flowers. She has added some feet to the bottom of the box for a finishing touch.

Thanks so much Bonnie we just love it!
