More Funk Busting!

Good Monday morning all!  Did you have a nice weekend?  I'm back today with some more funk busting tips!  Last Friday I shared with you my best tip for busting the crafty funk.  For me it's making something small like a tag.  I know a lot of people will make a card, but when you're primarily a card maker...you have to go even smaller than that! 

Today I'm going to show you some small little doilies that I've embellished.  I originally saw this idea on Dawn McVey's blog, some time ago.  These are Martha Stewart cut lace tags that I picked up at Michael's.  I don't think they sell them anymore but Papertrey Ink now sells a die that cuts out an almost identical shape!





In the first two pics, I just layered on a few bits and pieces.  In the last picture, I used a regular sized doily and just cut it in half, then layered it up.

I love these embellishments, I can use them for gift tags, cards, scrapbook pages just about anything.  The best part about them is that I feel crafty when I'm making them!

Have a wonderful Monday and I'll see you guys tomorrow!  Thank for popping in today!

  5. You have a good point, if you are a card maker, I guess making a card to get out of a funk, really doesn't help does it :)

    Your embellishments are so cute. Love those Martha Stewart doilies.
