Pram to pet bed!

This is an upcycle of a doll's pram to a pet bed! I chose a fluffy polar fleece blanket and a pillow for the mattress, so it can all be washed easily. It is cosy and soft.

Our wee man Fudge has chosen his bed. He didn't like the chair in our room, but chose the pram to sleep in at night. It can look a bit funny because sometimes he lays on his back with his feet in the air and snores his heart out.

Fudge can take considerable encouragement to get up in the morning. Just like a typical kid needs to be coaxed out of his pram bed, especially if it is raining or minus degrees outside!

Deer on the wall!

The design was originally for cardboard... but thin MDF works great too!

• Use the template deer template  (http://teendiy.blogspot.co.nz)  and cut from MDF... a scroll saw saves time!
• Pieces can be painted or covered in patterned paper. Scrapbooking background papers work well.
• Add a couple of coats of matt vanish to protect the paper.

Love love Becky Higgins digital Project Life!

I just love this app.. you can create pages in a minute or two with photos from  your iPhone. I have also used it as a tool to print out 6 x 4 collage prints for Project Life too! I can print the 8x8" size on my home printer which is a benefit and a good size for my small projects.

Download the app it's as easy as that!  It comes with some 'free' kits to get you started. https://beckyhiggins.com/project-life-app/

One page wonder

Here is my version of a one page wonder ..die cuts and added embellishments. I used both sides of the paper to create some variation.
