Good morning crafters, Kirsten here, I hope you had a fantastic weekend. It was cetainly a cold one, looks like winter has finally arrived. My Starlights project for this week is three very quick & easy ones..............
I painted three of the small MDF hearts with White Gold & Rich Gold Starlights & connected them with cherry red gingham ribbon adhered to the back. I covered the ribbon with gold mirri card.
I painted pieces of white Super Smooth card with Red, Green & Menthol Starlights, then used the Leane Creatief Flower & Holly & Pine Leaves cutting dies to die cut the poinsettias & foliage.........
I used a Sizzix alphabet die set from my stash to cut pieces of double-sided adhesive & after adhering the letters to the hearts, I peeled off the top layer & applied Fran-tage Gold Lux mica & glitter mix on top. I pressed the mica & glitter firmly on to the adhesive, then brushed off the excess......
I had some spare hearts, so I decorated them too. This one I painted with Menthol Starlights, applied Pearlescent Dimension paste through the Imagination Crafts Holly Corner stencil & embellished with the Leane Creatief poinsettia & foliage cutting dies.............
This one I painted with Silver Starlights, added strips of double-sided tape, then added Fran-tage Silver Lux mica & glitter mix on top.
I die cut the Sue Wilson Winter Trees & painted the smallest three with Dylusions paint - Fresh Lime, Bubblegum Pink & Vibrant Turquoise, adding dots of Silver Starlights with an embossing tool............

ReplyDeleteFabulous poinsettias. I love the rustic red and kraft look, and the sparkling silvery one conjures up glamorous antique baubles. The funky modern trees are very cool... what a variety of ornaments to decorate with, something for all tastes - great post.
