I am so happy to be participating in the Blog Hop and had a lot of fun playing with the Donna Salazar products.

I love to create out of the box type of gifts.
In this case I know some women who are going through chemotherapy right now so I created these with them in mind.
Little versatile pieces of artwork that could hang on clothespins like I have shown, adhere to a fridge (don't we all have a fridge full of artwork ;) ) or just in a bathroom to remind them everyday that they are strong and beautiful.

For both pennants I used one of my favorite MME collections (Cambridge Court) along with some Unity Stamps.  I have also used the fun Donna Salazar Pennant Set,and Lace Ribbons.  My go to adhesive when using products such as this is the Premium Double-Sided Tape.  I makes putting everything together so easy (note: you will see stitching but that is only for decoration, not needed :) )


First up is this pennant.  The title is cut with my Silhouette, which I love for titles.  

Can you guess what her purse is created with?
 Just stamped and cut it out.
Love the look of the fabric bag.


Next up a similar pennant.  I just love these colors mixed with the denim.
Now to create the die cut flower,
I mixed pattern paper with one of the denim panels from the Pennant Set.
Just one reason I still love my dies... so versatile!
I used some of the DODZ to adhere the flower pieces and buttons.


I had pieces of the denim left over so I just cut strips
and adhered under the sentiments.  
Love the added interest the denim adds to this project.

Products Used:

Pattern Paper: My Mind's Eye
Stamps: Unity
Dies: Papertrey Ink
My Rafflecopter comments will be open until August 7, 11:59pm Central Time
Zone.

the premium double-sided tape is a favorite. I'm constantly using double-sided tape on my projects. Easier to use and holds excellently.
Love the banners. they would be good to have displayed to re-enforce the notion that you are beautiful and strong - fighting a rough disease.
thanks for sharing.
