Christmas Embellishments/Snowflakes

On a recent card I made a snowflake.  I loved how stacking the different sizes and colors look.  Thought I'd share some with you.

To make your snowflakes you can use die cuts or your cricut/silhouette machine.  I used my cricut.
The cartridge came with my cricut years ago and is no longer made, but I'm sure there are other cartridges that have them.

The idea is to cut different sizes and shapes and layer them.

The are great on a card, a tag, straight on a package, or could even be used as an ornament on your tree!

 I used liquid pearls, flat back pearls, Ranger distress stickles to doll them up



 Here-I hot glued lace to a punched circle and glued the snowflake to it.  This could even have a pin back added to it to wear on your coat or sweater!
You can find the supplies you'll need at our store:  Outlaw Women Scrapbook Emporium.  The prices are ALWAYS 20-25% less!!

I had a lot of fun doing them.   I hope it'll inspire you to make some!
Have a blessed Friday!!

Friday Feature: Canvas Mixed Media

It's time for Friday's Feature!  
Today I've used an 8x10 canvas.  I had painted it with acrylic paints.
Then I took some lace and started layering it onto the canvas using mod podge.
You need to coat the lace and the canvas really well.

After it's dry, I used some gesso and spray inks to make areas pop.

I had a frame from MME that I glued on with mod podge.  
To make my photo pop I used my finger to go around the edges with gesso.  I love that look!

Added a few embellishments: ribbon, Wild Orchid flowers, buttons.

You can purchase most of the items I used at our shop.  All prices are discounted daily.
