Master Crafter

Hello Crafty Friends!

Today I would like to share with you my project entry for the Master Crafter contest over at PinkCricut.com.
 
PinkCricut had 100 packages of goodies up for grabs a while back and is holding a contest to see who is the Master Crafter.  There are lots of prizes up for grabs in addition to the title "Master Crafter"!
 
Each package contained the following:


Scissor Mouse sponsored by Westcott , DCWV Rockstar mat stack sponsored by DCWV Deals, Cotton Bag Sponsored by State line Bag Co. , 1/2 sheet of Rhinestones sponsored by Queen & Co., Sentiment stamp sponsored by Pink by Design, Assorted Buttons.
 
Participants were asked to incorporate as much from their goodies as they could in creating their project. 

 
Here is my project:
 
 
I made a Tooth Fairy Wall Hanging with tooth bag.
 
I used everthing that was sent to me, except I added an extra button and the PbD sentiment.  The packages were stuffed pretty full and mine was missing a couple of tiny pieces.
 
I started with a 5x7 photo frame that I spray painted black and then added some shimmer and sparkle using Glimmer Mists (Silver, Diamonds, Gumdrop).
 
Since my gems were lime green, I chose a green patterned paper from the stack as my background.  I used the Scissor Mouse to trim two edges.  It a pretty cool tool, but takes a bit getting used to.  I'll definitely be playing with this more.
 
I added a couple of the gems to the background as the center of the flowers.
 
 
I stamped/embossed the sentiment from the PbD Tooth Fairy set onto cardstock, cut it out with a Spellbinder, inked the edges, and added some bling.
 
 
I then stamped out the "tooth fairy tooth" from the same set and added some stickled to the wings.
 
 
For the tooth bag, I took the canvas bag and sprayed it with Granite, Gumdrop, and Diamonds Glimmer Mists.  Then I stamped the Tooth Fairy Seal onto it using black dye ink.  I added a ribbon to the bottom edge, and some twine tied buttons.
 
 
 
I plan to hang this up in my youngest roomfor her use when she starts to lose her teeth.
 
 
Voting for the Master Crafter begins on 10/7 at 12:01 CST.  Here is the link to stop by and vote for me :) 
 
Thanks for stopping by!
