LESSology Challenge #16: Creative inspiration from Shahrul Niza

Photobucket

Hello there altered enthusiasts! Ready to check out what DT member Shahrul Niza made for LESSology Challenge #16: Bubble boy or girl?

Hi, it's Shahrul. Here's to share what I made for this month's challenge; a door-knob sign for a baby boy's nursery using some bubble wraps, a circle binder, fabric scraps and a few simple embellishments.


 The circle binder is big enough to go through door knobs. In this project, I chose not to use bubble wraps as a medium for stamping but paint the letters 'SHH' on the bubble wrap instead. I used blue thread to better outline the letters. So, just put the sign up on the door when the baby is sleeping :).


The metal owl clock clip-on is a flea market find. So cute. It has a clock that shows baby's sleeping time :).

Can't wait to see how this challenge inspires you!. Hugs.

Hi everyone! I had so much fun making this month's challenge!!

I decided to make my daughter a little Tea Cafe!! 
I started out with a piece of cardboard that came with my window valances!


Then I painted it and used bubble wrap to add a textured "Floor" for my Cafe! 


Then I had these goodies from an antique store....


Added some of my fave Bo Bunny papers... and next thing I know... I have myself a little Tea Cafe for my daughter to play with!!!



















And my daughter with her new Tea Cafe... and her little dolls on it!!






I can't wait to see what everyone makes!!

It's "me" turn... who is "Me"??...Me Lynnda... [LOL]
I'm here to share my interpretation of
LESSology Challenge #16 Bubble boy/girl...
I decided to create a photo frame for DH little niece..~ She's the cutest!!!

My upcycled item is the background [cardboard from 6x6 paper pad]


I wrapped up the 6x6 cardboard using bubble wrap with Mod Podge
So here is the ready photo frame... using "BUBBLE" WRAP...


I can't wait to see what EVERYONE creates ...Com'on...!

stuffed my little tea cup with foam


and my little sailor boy is ready to set sail....



he said: "Will you sail away with me?"





Hello friends! It's Yvonne here to share my mini album using bubble wrap.


Play mini album cover


I love how bits of bubble wrap add such a nice texture without being bulky and heavy.


I used watercolour paper as my base so that I could mist on both sides. Can you spot where's my bubble wrap?





I love how you can add paint on bubble wrap too! :)



Have the ladies inspired you to take a spin with some bubble wrap? We know you have some at home! *winks*  Come play along with LESSology Challenge #16: Bubble boy or girl.
