April Blog Hop Home Decor

April - Home Decor Blog Hop

Welcome to our April Blog Hop featuring a Home Decor project of our choosing.  With Spring not so far off we have been trying to finish up some projects....i just question if things are ever really done? there is always just one more idea, one more tweak. In October of last year we featured the canvas journal. We designed a Recipe Journal with quilled veggies, this was to be a set including a recipe box. With a new counter top coming and the need to finish up a few projects this set finally has been completed, or I thought it was but as I sit here and type a utensil holder to match would also look pretty good in that particular space....below are a few shots of the pieces so far.

List of supplies:
My Creations Canvas Journal & Recipe Box
Dimensional Element (recipes title is attached to it)
Bonding Glue
Glamour Glitter Alphabet
VersaMark Ink Pad

Craft Heater
Clear Embossing Powder
Dakota Paper Packet
Quilling Tool
Cardstock in multiple colors( New England Ivy, Autumn Terracotta, Colonial White, Barn Red, and a few retired colors)
Kraft Paper
Stamp from the Scholastic Workshop
