Hi friends! I am excited to be returning to the American Crafts family for a 3rd year. I still absolutely adore each new collection and it's truly a DREAM COME TRUE!
To kick off the new team, we are doing an American Crafts 2014-2015 Design Team Blog Hop. This year's team is much smaller but packed with inspiration. As you make your way through our 6 blogs, my hope is that you'll be inspired to create your own masterpieces.
Undoubtedly Beautiful Everday by Heather Leopard
Supplies: American Crafts Shimelle collection from Gossamer Blue September kit
How to: Cut 4 - 5 large triangles and adhere them to the background paper with the centers touching.Stitch through the centers. Doodle around the inside edge to help them stand out from the background. Print 2 - 3 photos in a small circle shape. Pick out several sentiments that are round or close to round. Add layers behind each center piece, like ruffled paper, strips, distressed circles, hearts, etc.Add a title in an open area and journal around the outer edge.
You know what I love about blog hops, besides all the creativity and inspiration??? The giveaway. How about a little #SUMMER in September? I have many papers and embellishments that have hardly been opened/used but I have used some of it. I would love to gift a #SUMMER RAK to you.

Love the stitching and doodling details!! I think you were the first person I started following on Instagram, LOL. (user name bealawson27), or second far Heidi Swapp. If not for you gals, I would have resisted to urge to sign up of one more thing but now I love the pics...

Hi Heather, I love your stitched triangle flowers - they look amazing.
I couldn't find a way to create an instagram account or follow without the app, and I can't run the app on a laptop. I don't have a smart phone. {{If anyone can show me how, I'd love to do it...}} I am already a follower on Google Friend Connect.
Hi Karen - I assumed you could since you can log in on the PC but maybe you can't. I'll modify the rules for entering and pull followers here or Instagram. Thanks for letting me know.
Wow this is so cool! Love the stitching on here and mixing of papers!

I'm probably the only one left on the planet with a flip phone instead of a smart phone. No Instagram either! I live 3 hours from the nearest craft store so it would be so awesome to win!
I am finding lots of inspiration in the blog hop. I like your idea of doodling along the edge of the triangle to make them stand out. Very cool. May even get inspired to open the instagram app that I downloaded but never use. Thanks! Kristie Absher
Oh my goodness, I love the fun pinwheel-y designs you created here! So whimsical! Just awesome. :) I'm really happy to be working with you this year, Heather!
