Day 3 ~ The i-top 2.0

The i-top 2.0 can be used to create so many amazing projects.

Hopefully you've noticed that over these last 2 days.

But we're not done yet. We've got another great show for you today so take a seat, get another cup of coffee and enjoy!!

The projects that the girls are showing today have been created using a variety of Brad Daddies (i.e 34mm ) and the Button Daddies (extra large - 34mm).

Aphra Boyler

"Thankful" card

Aphra created this stunning Thanksgiving card and used the i-top 2.0 to create a brad for the center of the floral arrangement. We love all the layers and dimension on here!

Lydia Jackson

Fall Necklace

Lydia has been at her crafty magic again and created this stunning piece of jewellry with her i-top 2.0, a 34mm button which she covered and then threaded onto a choker necklace. She embellished it beautifully with some feathers and some Glam Rocks using the i-top tool.

Cristal Hobbs

Thanksgiving Card

Cristal's children wanted to use her scrapbooking tools recently to make some cards for their teachers and grandparents. They used some twine to wrap around the brad daddy, cardstock, googly eyes (of course) and Imaginisce patterned paper.

Isn't he cute??? Great job Hobbs kids!

Erin Bassett

Fall Brooch

This breathtaking design was created using the extra large button (34mm) and covered with burlap. Erin finished it off perfectly with some silk flowers, twigs, tulle and put it on a pin backing.

Shemaine Smith

Thanksgiving Napkin Ring

At the Smith's Thanksgiving dinner they write down what they are thankful for and then place those papers in a decorated vase in the center of the table. Shemaine's father reads all of them outloud after they said Grace.

What a wonderful tradition Shemaine.
