Hello again!
My Friend Lesley and I are having a Crafting Day next week (on a school day too!) and, having seen a few projects that I have done recently, Lesley has asked me if I would show her on Friday how to do the resist technique as she is not sure how to go about it.
Well I was sitting in my room the other evening, there were a few inks on my desk, and a tag and one thing led to another.......Who could "resist" the lure of new stamps ey? So now I have two tags for Tim Holtz's November tag!
I used my TH tag die and SU vanilla cardstock, the same stamp set as I used for the original stamp set, but as you can see the Tree one. This time I used some paper tape, lace and ribbon (that ribbon is sooo precious I only use it on special projects!). Some pins in the ribbon and string at the top and hey presto.
I decided to add just a little texture by adding glossy accents to the baubles. It is a shame the lighting in the mornings is sooo pants lately as you cannot see the perfect pearls mist on there!
Thanks for calling by.
TTFN

ReplyDeleteI hope I'm not going to get the blame for the new stamps as well, cos I haven't got THEM! Ha ha, I did laugh when I read your comment. S'not my fault...honest! Have a good play-day!

ReplyDeleteJust realised I hadnt answered your two questions! firstly I have no idea why I have martians in a pot! think they are rubbers no idea where they are from - planet Zog perhaps? and yes I am a Gemini! surely you cant tell that by looking at my desk? It must be because I am slightly mad and love yellow really mustnt it? oh and I love shoes too.
ReplyDeleteHi Sam
ReplyDeleteI might not be able to see the perfect pearls mist .. .. but I do see one amazing and beautiful tag!!
What gorgeous colours you have worked with.
So much scrummy detail on one small piece of card!
Have a good day.

P.S. You did make me :) with your comment about the Noel box
Very beautiful!! I so love your colors. I haven't played with those stamps yet...I got the soldier die, and plan on working the two together...maybe this weekend? Have a great weekend!
ReplyDeleteCompletely fabulous! The colours are stunning, and I love the added glossiness on the baubles... By some bizarre oversight, I wasn't a Follower - sorted now!!
