Sharing a Pretty Little Project!

I realized yesterday after I finished my post about making the Design Team at Scrappin' Goodtime that I didn't post my project that I submitted.  So, I thought I'd come back today and do that.  I'd love to write more, but I have some Christmas Tags that I need to make (Special Order) and I really want to get them finished (started?)

For my Project I used a Melissa Frances Glass Globe.  The Base is covered in Blue Glass Glitter (also from Melissa Frances.  For the Pedestal I used the Tim Holtz Rosette Die, but didn't make a "complete" Rosette.  I just used it to make the stand.  The Blue Glitter Paper was inked, and each fold of the stand was also inked (I likes Chestnut Roan and use it on EVERYTHING!)  The Bottle Brush tree is from Tim Holtz, and the blue "Ornaments" are actually Crop-a-dile Punches that i made.  Each "ornament" has also been inked.  The Star on top of the Tree is a Star Stick Pin from Maya Road that I added color to.  The Top of the Globe was coated with Mod Podge. I then glittered it, and after it was dry i applied another coat of Mod Podge.  A Ribbon was added because I thought it NEEDED a bow!  Just like a present! :0)  The Glitter Trim on the bottom of the Globe is also from Melissa Frances.  And there is a hidden feature added to the Globe.  The Base of the Globe (the underneath) is actually a pullout album that you can add photos to.  I LOVED making this little ornament! and Since the Bottle Brush Trees come in a pack of Two (one big, one small and a wreath) I have another tree so I can make a BIGGER one for me!




Don't Forget about the Holiday Open House This Weeked

Join us for a fabulous day of make and takes with our Design Team!  We will have three sessions: 10-12, noon-2, and 2-4. Complete at least THREE and you will receive $5 off $25 dollar purchase.  Complete ALL  make and takes, and be entered into a drawing for the really adorable Mini Christmas Tree kit by Doodlebug.

Promises to be a day of merriment, so come spend it with us!

I mailed my box of Make and Takes to the store today.  There are only 24!  So if you would like to be able to make one of mine, and you are local (or close to local) make sure you stop by the store on Saturday.  I'm going to post a photo of my Make and Take tomorrow. 

Have a Great Night!
