Bella Toile Christmas


Today's color challenge calls for Poppy Parade, Tempting Turquoise, and White. I gold embossed the Bella Toile image and colored it with these colors and a bit of lime green. Dry embossed the Poppy panel with the Elegant Line folder, embossed sentiment from Bells & Boughs in gold. The ornament is from this week's Holiday Blitz to make a magnet (Technique is in Resources section). I embossed this in gold, colored it with Copics, added Dazzling Diamonds and Crystal Effects. My ornament can be removed from the card and used as an ornament and also has a magnet on the back. Added turquoise grosgrain ribbon, gold cording and mini pearls to frame. Sketch is Mojo164.

Ornament Magnets


These can be used as magnets or hung as ornaments. I used the technique spotlight tutorial to make these using a CTMH set called Elegant Ornament with Crystal Effects, Dazzling Diamonds and gold and silver embossing and cording by SU.
Project #16 in my Christmas Countdown.

Refrigerator Magnets

The Frugal Finds challenge on SCS was to find some old somethings you have around the house to recycle. Have I got some junk here, I can't seem to part with anything. I found these casters that were from some older furniture we no longer even have and some flat magnets I got in the mail with advertising on it.















I used some double sided adhesive sheets, cut to fit caster frame and lightly sprinkled with Dazzling Diamonds. (These sheets are from Close To My Heart). The swirly image was stamped in Kiwi Kiss ink on retired Cool Caribbean. Stick sheet to it, and then to caster.














This is what some of the finished magnets look like. I used Ocean Commotion for the fish and Just Buzzin' By with Chocolate Chip and Summer Sun. I'll be back later with some more pictures, I'm getting evicted from my craft room for a while due to some construction we have going on.
