Today I continued on the girly-girl path and made a monogram frame to match the card I made yesterday for our friends' new daughter. Also today I want to show the onesies, because I want to get them in the mail this week.
I had this dollar frame in my stash of alterables for quite a while, and today it jumped out at me. I got this great outline alphabet from Mandarin Pixie before they closed last year, and it's just the right size. The papers are DCWV and Bazzil. I used craft store acrylic paint to paint the frame, and the ribbon is American Crafts. I did stamp the flourishes in Close to Cocoa, but since I don't have craft inks, it faded to a gray. The flowers are Primas and the centers are Queen and Co Mini Sprinkles brads.
Below are the onesies. I used the directions from Taylor, but went one step easier and bought the cute patterned iron-on patches instead of using fabric with Heat N Bond. It helped me because the patches were all coordinated! I think I should have set the ink in the dryer before washing the onesies, because it did fade. Any comments on this process for me? I didn't have Palette Hybrid ink, so used Staz-On. The diaper on the baby is paper pieced. The butterflies are from Verve, the hearts are from Kim Hughes for CHF.
