You can see Rachel's work in her gallery. We are just loving all of her projects. I think these two may be my favorites. I love the idea of using our overlays for place mats. All you have to do is round the corners.
This project is also so creative!
She used overlays/rub-ons in ways that i haven't see yet, and did it with such style- so cool!
It's time for our monthly giveway- so post a comment below, and we'll pick some winners to get some new stuff. I just love reading all the comments :)
All I can say is WOW!!!! It is amazing how many ways your "stuff" can be used by such creative minds!
