Its Military Theme this month at Gone Artsy...
and in honor of our fallen soldiers I have created this shabby style flag. I love it cause it's so Americana. This is a total Pinterest idea, but I loved it so much I wanted to do my take on one using the beautiful laces and trims from Gone Artsy. I must say... this is also a great way to use up scrap pieces too. There are several on Pinterest that gave me the inspiration to do this. Even the hanger is scrap... lol! I cut the bottom section from it to make a hanger for another project and so I just kept bending this till I got the desired look I wanted.

Then away I went adding laces from the Gone Artsy Shop, ribbons from my stash, the wonderful Seam Binding from the shop. I even cut sections of the White Floral Embroidered Lace to make the "stars". I have also included sections of the NEW TRIMS that you will see being introduced all month long!

I added some fun charms, used some scrap denim and then highlighted areas with gesso. I also added gesso to the hanger to shabby it up some too.

Its Military Theme this month at Gone Artsy... and as we honor those who have fallen, we also want to honor those in the military who will be tie'ing the knot.

I have created a colorful bouquet in our nations colors of roses using the straight handle bouquet holder. I added in some white tulle and some beaded accents.

Next I wrapped the handle with the 3.9 inch Scalloped Doily and added the beautiful Square Rhinestone Metal Embellishment.

I wrapped the underneath with left over mesh from one of the new beautiful wide laces... that will be out soon in the store. The gorgeous dangle lace you see will also be out this month... so be on the lookout!!

The lovely pearl and rhinestone heart metal embellishment I added to the bouquet for a nice touch is also new to the shop... another gorgeous piece to be looking for!!!
