sis boom fabulousness!

This is the start of our NEW design team projects. The wonderfully talented Jennifer Paganelli from Sis Boom is our guest designer this month. If you're not familiar with Jennifer, she designs gorgeous fabric (visit her blog and website!) She's taught classes at the very popular Silver Bella event and she's also a paper designer for Daisy D's, which just happens to be one of my favorite companies! I just love their vintage inspired designs.

Jennifer's posted a little how-to on her vintage and glittery project. Take a peek!

Find some old Victorian sheet music that you love.. these were found on e-bay. Xerox onto card stock, adhere to letters with mod podge!

Once these are dry, sprinkle the outline with very fine glass glitter. I will say our silver German glass glitter is wonderful to work with - no painting is needed underneath because it covers every little spot! Jennifer gives a great link for larger quantities available in several color options. Let glitter dry.

Look in your old findings box of vintage jewels and Jazz up that pretty crown with some hot glue! FYI after things settle down I'll put them on the wall! Jennifer posted lots more photos on her blog and wrote some sweet things. :) Have a look at her inspiration!

This lettering style is called Olive Juice and we just updated it on Etsy with the word DIVA. If you're interested in ordering a different letter or word, just e-mail me and I'll put an order together for you (I can also e-mail you a .jpg of what the word will look like.) deb[at]sayitwithletters[dot]com. The crown is already available in our shop.

Thanks Jennifer for your fabulous and inspiring ideas! What fun! And keep checking in over the next week because we'll be posting our design teams projects too!
