Silly pants :D

Today I made these silly pants for my 2 year old son. He LOVES them! So proud of his new pants, and especially the big pocket! :D

I'm going to sew elastic bands at the bottom of the legs, I just have to buy the elastics first.





The elephant is a pattern from a norwegian crafts magazine from 1978! (Alt om HÃ¥ndarbeide nr 1, september 1978.) :D I ♥ retro! :D

I didn't have any sewing pattern or instructions, I just drew a pattern from a pair of pants he fits at the moment. This is the first pair of pants I've made, so I'm happy with the way they turned out. :)

Thanks for looking! Have a great weekend! :)

RSS challenge #6

Finally I've had time and energy to make a new card! :)

Ready Steady Stamp challenge #6

(Please click the images to see full size.)







I made my own glimmer spray, using Distress reinkers, perfect pearls and water. I used it to make the background paper. I've used stamps from Tim Holtz and Stempelglede. The letters are rub ons from Kaiser Craft. The B is chipboard I've painted with silver Paint Dabber, and then inked with black ink.

Thanks for looking! :)
