It’s Dare to Get Dirty Week at Splitcoaststampers! If you’re a Fan Club Member this is your chance to play along with Dirty Girls, past and present, in a ton of fun challenges. If you’re not a Fan Club Member, this is the perfect time to become one!  (You can get all the info you need at the previous links.)
We’d love to have you play with us this week! There are 33 challenges to choose from – play one or play them all!
My project today is a sample that I’ve created for Sharon Johnson’s challenge. You can find all the details about the challenge here!
Â
I started with a chipboard page from a Maya Road book, and covered it with designer paper. All the flowers are made using Spellbinders die templates and Grunge Paper. I covered the Grunge Paper with designer paper before any die cutting. The leaves are made from Grunge Board and inked in Peeled Paint Distress Ink. I stamped the word Dream separately from the rest of the sentiment and put it in an Ornate Plate. From there I covered the word with Glossy Accents to make a dimensional front to the Ornate Plate. The hanger is made from florist wire held by the back of the brads. Actually, everything on this project is covered with designer paper that has either been applied to chipboard or Grunge Paper. Way too much fun!!!!!!!!.

Sherry, this is super fabulous! I am always in total AWE over your wall decor items — I AM going to try one soon!!! Thanks for the GREAT sample!
This is just gorgeous…your flowers are amazing as always…everyone needs to head over and check out your flower video…very inspirational!!!
Another wonderful piece of art! I’m so glad you showed that we can cut grungepaper with the Spellbinders dies. And I just LOVE all of your flowers.
So do you have a wall just for all these wonderful hangings that you’ve been making?!!
AMAZING, Sherry!!!
Hugs, Ree :o)

Girl, you are so talented. I get so much inspiration from you. Question I can’t find the long stem leaves (you use on your projects) in spellbinders. Is that a die or just one of your creations? We are about the same age, (I may be a bit older) but isn’t it great to be having so much fun with this stuff?LOL
Ooh, I love it Sherry! Gorgeous design, fabulous papers, love your flowers . . . absolutely Fabulous girl!
Sherry this is gorgeous, I love your 3D flowers. So pretty.
tfs
Sherry I love this!! Your flowers are awesome!! Love the butterfly too!
Wow, how fabulous! I only dream of creating what you actually do create!!
This is gorgeous Sherry. I’m loving those flowers. I keep telling myself that I can make something like this and when I look at the blank paper I get scared to death, but I can dream can’t I. I love the all over look of this piece. Beautiful colors. TFS!!! 😀
Are you using grunge paper or grunge BOARD when you cut out the shapes?
I am trying to cut grunge BOARD and can’t get it to cut.
Awesome! Love the flowers, all the dimension and colors!!
Love it…especially the cute little butterfly.
Very beautiful, I love the flowers.
Sherry, this is AMAZING! I love your idea with the butterfly….safety pins…..hmm. Also can you tell me what you used for the leave around the flowers? Do you have a die, or was this a stamp you cut out? Anyhow, another wonderful piece!
OHHHHH I so LOVE it, great choice in papers, pretty flowers and the dream framed that way, so cool!
this is sooo pretty! what is grunge paper? I have never heard of it.
