MAKE IT MONDAY #234: EMBELLISHING WITH FELT

Good morning, Crafters!  I was excited about this week's make it Monday that Ashley hosted over at Papertrey Ink.  She demonstrated how embellishing with felt adds dimension and texture to your projects.  Check out her beautiful cards and technique here.

Her project inspired me to create this snowflake tag for a gift my husband needed wrapped for a Christmas party.  He needs 7 of them but I thought I would just photograph the one;)

I used the PTI dies:  Tag Sale #4, Wet Paint Holiday, and Fancy Flakes to create this tag.  The Fancy Flake is cut from PTI Vintage Cream felt.  I attempted one of Melissa's sweet junk bows to tie the tag onto the package;)

Make it Monday - Embellishing with Felt

I hope you are all happy with the progress of your Christmas crafting and gift purchasing.  I'm feeling a bit behind and plan on spending today wrapping the few gifts I have already bought.

Peace and Joy to you all!

MAKE IT MONDAY #233: SPLATTERING

Happy December, happy crafters!  I am not sure where November went but I believe it left with my Thanksgiving company:)  I wanted to join in the fun of this week's Make it Monday by Danielle at Papertrey Ink hoping it would help me get back into my routine after the holiday madness.

Fabulous Snowflake Christmas Tags with Splattering

 I decided to make Christmas tags similar to Danielle's.  I struggled trying to get a good photo, but you get the idea of what they look like.  I copied her technique but used aqua mist refill ink for the splatters.

Here is a different photo trying to brighten the images:)

Crafting mightily,
