Layered Beaded Ribbon Lace Seam binding Tailed DIY Bow Tutorial

Hello, my friends,
Today I would like to share with you a step by step tutorial on how to make layered beaded ribbon/seam binding/lace tailed bow
Something like that...

Step 1. 18-inch ribbon (in this case seam binding); face ribbon wrong side up

Step  2. fold tails of ribbon on itself 4inch from both ends; crease

 Step 3. mark 1.5 inches from the edge (do for both ends); sew or glue on the mark

 Step 4. left the end of the folded ribbon fold on the mark of 3 inches from the edge

Step 5. fold the right side of folded ribbon away from you (about on 3-inch mark from the edge); your ribbon should be folded in a Z fold

 Step 6. while holding layers in the center spread loops in all directions, like a star; secure layers by sewing or gluing; be sure tails of the ribbon will be on the same side

 Step 7.  take about 8 inches of beaded string; fold it in half and cross into “breast cancer” loop; glue to the #6

 Step 8. take complimentary material  about 10 inches (it can be lace, another shade of ribbon, sequin trim or all together); tie a simple bow with the same length of tails as at #6; glue on top of #7

 Step 9. choose your final centerpiece; adhere to #8

 Enjoy the final product...

Shabby Christmas in July Shabby Chic Card

Hello, my friends!
Today I would like to share with you beautiful shabby chic card that I made for the one on one "Shabby Chic Christmas in July" swap at "NSK&Friends"
I am very proud of this project... It came out absolutely beautiful and very shabby.

For the base, I used standard Recollections 4 by 6 card with an envelope.
I used at list three layers of color-coordinated rectangular die-cut mats: Pink, Blue, and  Cream to create a nesting layered effect, by using nesting card mats set if dies with the decorative dotted edge.

Tip: Stretch your supplies... 
After cutting out all nesting cardstock mats use their center space to die-cut extra decorative elements (in my case flourishes). see the video...

When all nesting layers were secured on the card I added half of Recollection decorative paper doily and touched it under next layer of a 3D decorative window frame.

The 3D decorative window frame was made out of two layers of cream cardstock: 1st - with a printed image of Russian Magnolia Tilda dolls and 2nd - die-cut decorative window frame (using Spellbinders die). I used a hot glue to create a space between those layers by adding a small 3D dots.

Tip: How to hide a glue?
After you adhered anything sometimes you have a glue spacks showing on the edges... very unpleasant and unfinished look. Simple fix: add more glue (glossy accents for example) and while its wet sprinkle some glitter. Let it dry. The finished product looks very sparkling and nice.

Now that all layers are ready to be attached we can add all decorative elements...
Top left corner I decorated with Recollections half paper doily, some Spellbinders Floral die-cuts that been frosted, two of Prima flowers and a leaf applique from NSK

 On the diagonal - right bottom corner I touched another Xmas Prima poinsettia and some die-cut ephemera from "Santa Baby" collection with the second half of applique leaf and frosted die-cut paper flourishes.

On the bottom of the card, slightly overlapping the decorative 3D frame

I placed layers of NSK laces: 

- scalloped edge cotton lace

decorated with flatback pearls 

 and sparkling embellishments

- beaded Venice shabby chic trim

 Inside the card, I use scrap part from Recollections paper doily to create a pocket corner and touch in the rest of die-cut flourishes and decorate it with a scrap piece of Prima 'Santa Baby" die-cut embellishments...

I think this card came out absolutely adorable...
What do you think?

Thank you for stopping by and spending some time with me...
Hugs & Kisses,
Natasha

Shabby Chic Banner Pendant

Hello my friends,
Today I would like to share with you another shabby chic project - Banner Pendant that I created for my friends daughter's room
I am very pleased how it came out
Unfortunately instead of making it pink, I went into my favorite blues...
Well it wasn't much I could have done - image that I was working with had blue in it.... So I blended pinks and blues...
I think it came out very nice

 I created digital collage using original photo

and turning it into

and framing it with laces, applique and trims from NSK (all links to product you can find here)

Hope you enjoyed all pictures and you you did and would like to create one, please watch the video and follow the process video at the end!
Hugs and Kisses,
Natasha
