Phew.....just finished the LAST one before Christmas Day ! This is it, another feat of improvisation.
The Base tag was cut from white card and a piece of Tim's paper adhered and lightly rubbed over with pearl acrylic Dabber. The egdes were distressed with course sandpaper and coloured with vintage photo Distress Ink. I don't own any movers and shapers dies so I just cut a circle of grungepaper and heat embossed it twice with dark maroon embossing powder held in place with Versamark ink. I coloured the chipboard letter directly with barn door DI and added a few pink stickles to the edges before sticking onto the bauble. The bauble was then stuck in place with Glossy Accents and a little green ribbon bow applied at the top and some gold ribbon and brad to act as a hanger (no wire on mine !).
The calender month of December was cut from TH papers and edged with vintage photo DI and stuck in place on foam pads.
The holly leaves are green sequins applied with red brads (as berries) in a little group at the top of the calender as shown.
Final touches were to add a gold eyelet with the crop-a-dile and to thread through some red ribbon tied in a loop.
Done IT !! Now to relax with a little sherry..............
Pin It
YAY well done Sid.
