T-shirt with Tim Holtz flowers & Canvas bag

Look what I made yesterday! A t-shirt using Tim Holtz  Sizzix die called "Tattered flowers". I cut the flowers in canvas and cotton, layered them and then sewed buttons in different sizes.



I also made this bag! They were on sale at Michael's for $.79. I painted it first, then sprayed some Tattered Angels  glimmer mists, stamped it and embellished with Prima flowers. I changed the straps and used ribbon with stitches for mine. Both projects were very easy to make and so much fun! They make wonderful Christmas presents. Let me know if you make some, okay?



Have a blessed and fabulous day!

  2. So lovely Beatriz!!! The bag is sweet and the shirt is so wonderful and very much in style this season. I bought one this summer at Eddie Bauer's that was very much the same concept. You are one creative lady!!! Hope you are having a great summer and that your leg has healed well. :)
