Pinterest party!

A couple of nights ago I joined in with some friends who were having a Pinterest party. I had so much fun I thought I'd do one on my blog.

Here's what you have to do.

Click the blue "Join this Site" button to become a follower of my blog.

Go to Pinterest and pick any craft project and make it. It doesn't have to be exactly the same. Just use it as a guide. Don't spend too long on your project. Pick an easy one if it helps. Hopefully you'll learn a new technique like I did!

When you've finished take a photo, post it to your blog and add a link to it using the InLinkz button at the bottom of this post. Don't forget to invite your blog readers to join in the fun!

If you don't have a blog to link to you can upload your photo to Photobucket (or any photo sharing site) and link to that.

Here's the card I made. It's an ink emboss resist card. It's hard to see but it's nice and sparkly in real life!






And this was my Pinterest inspiration:



Here's the link to Britta's blog post where she shows how to make the card: http://brittaswiderski.com/2011/12/quick-and-easy-holiday-cards-lesson-4-other-than-christmas-cards/

Be sure to pin the card from her blog... not from here!  That's good Pinterest etiquette.  

So, how about it? Want to join in? I've set the finish date for a weeks time, but I'm happy to extend the date if necessary. 

I have extended the closing date to the end of May for those needing more time! 


Have fun and I can't wait to see what you come up with!

  2. I will definitely play along! I love your take on the pinterest card. It is beautiful and the Spring touch to a winter card is awesome.

  3. I was sure I was already a follower! Ah well, I am now! Maybe your computer and Cricut brains will rub off on me! I think I've lost a few molecules along the way..... :-P

  4. Narelle I added my project that I made recently. I did get the idea of putting it on my hat from pinterest, so I hope it counts. Thx Janis
