FabScraps Oh Sew Beautiful Collection - Chipboard Hanger Project

FabScraps Oh Sew Beautiful Collection

or Oh so Fab-ulous as I like to call it. 

This collection is indeed beautiful but also has a wonderful clever assortment of FabScraps chipboard that compliments the collection.   I decided to adorn mine with some vintage charm using lots of lace and gold embossing powder. 

The chipboard pieces are just perfect - the little thimble and  sewing bobbins.  FabScraps has thought of it all.

If you scroll down, you'll find some simple step-by-step instructions as to how I made this project. 

The scissors in the photo below are a combination of the chipboard from the collection with the stickers from the collection over the top.   I love this little piece.

Instructions

1.     Chipboard Hanger Preparation:

2.     Using  FabScraps Oh Sew Beautiful  Collection  Chipboard DC68001, cover the hanger  using FabScraps  Oh Sew Beautiful  - Floral Pattern Paper C68002.

3.     Ink edges of paper with brown ink.

4.     Add gold trim to the bottom of the Hanger. 

5.     Use a gold doily or emboss or paint a doily gold.  Cut to fit the center bottom section of the Hanger as a decorative fancy accent. 

6.     Top doily with Gold painted FabScraps Filigree Embellishment – Old Metal frame E6009.  I painted gold to blend better.

7.     Top Old Metal Frame with a button from your stash or cut one from FabScraps Oh Sew Pretty  - Buttons paper C68006.

8.     Add a little gold  doily piece to the curved neck of the hanger. 

9.     Top the doily with a lace bow and ribbon.  

10.   Finish the hanger with a button from  FabScraps Oh Sew Pretty  - Buttons paper C68006.

11.   Chipboard Bottom Preparation

12.   Cover flat bottom chipboard piece with  FabScraps Oh Sew Beautiful – Dress Pattern paper C68007.

13.   Aligning at the bottom, cover the chipboard with wide lace.  The lace I used was 3.5in wide.

14.   Ink the edges of the chipboard. 

15.   Add gold trim to the top edge of the chipboard.

16.   Chipboard Accent Pieces:

17.   Thread spools – ink brown. Wind string, yarn, embroidery floss around them in different colors and keep about 6inches available to loosely drape on chipboard.   Glue to page.

18.   Scissors – paint gold and heat with heat gun while wet to make the paint bubble – adds texture.  Using the stickers from FabScraps Oh Sew Beautiful – Scissors and Thimble Stickers pack ST68001, cut a scissors sticker to fit.  I pieced mine together as it is not an exact fit.  Glue to page.

19.   Bobbins - paint gold and heat with heat gun while wet to make the paint bubble.  Glue to page.

20.   Finishing Touches:

21.   Add thimble sticker from Scissors and Thimble Stickers pack ST68001 and Hook package from Sticker pack ST68002.  Extra tip – I adhere the stickers to cardstock first  to make the image pop better since the images are transparent.

22.   Top with buttons from stash as well as buttons cut from with  FabScraps Oh Sew Beautiful – Dress Pattern paper C68007.

23.   Glue sting pearls on chipboard as desired.

24.   Add small Alphabets to the top to create a title. Ink each letter to provide definition before gluing.  

25.   Connect the hanger and flat chipboard piece together with the clips provided in set.
