Welcome to the Creations by AR Celebrating Father's Blog Hop!
I am going to show off two fun new templates today...so very fun to create!
I made this template to copy what my Dad's chair looks like with his favorite things near him *recliner chair...a blankey, his doggie and of course what man does not have a TV remote control glued in their hand??? I cut the word "Dad" with my Silhouette, and made the blankey by fringing a piece of upholstery fabric. I also added little brown beads on the bottom of each corner for 'feet' on the chair.
A special template created by Adela to honor her Papa. I made up the trunk and added a cute little memory mini album inside. Just a simple accordian album using matching papers to pop inside the trunk and fill with special pictures.

OK - I wish we could make favorites galleries on our blogs beause this chair would go into mine! Wow! I love it - such a great creation with wonderful papers, super shape, and just the best feel to it. I had to do a furniture creation challenge a few months ago with some friends and this would have been the best thing to do! Love, love this!!!!
ReplyDeleteLove the vintage feel of the chair - great use of paper I would have considered to be somewhat boring!!
ReplyDeleteLove the way you let everyone know this is dad's chair!! Great!
The "blanket" is such a great touch!! What did you do? fray a scrap of fabric?
Love all your embellishments on the armchair - especially your little blankie! Great trunk too, the perfect holder for the photo album. Super projects.
ReplyDeleteSuper elegantes tus trabajos pero como he dicho a todas las plantilla de el sillon es divina
ReplyDeleteBesos

ReplyDeleteWhat fun looking at all the different interpretations of the chair and trunk. Each has something special that stands out for me. This time it's the "blankie" for sure.
ReplyDeleteHey Sue , that sofa was amazing w/ the lil. blanket throw you put on the side and to top it off w/ mans best friend the doggie by his side what more to ask for @ a sofa .
ReplyDeleteyour dads trunk was very US mail style I remember back in days when they use to sell the envelopes w/ the red, white and blue stripes.
Hello!
