So it is Christmas night the presents have been opened, the dinner has been ate and now i have the need to craft but my craft room looks so clean since i have company coming.
my craft room is never this clean and it is screaming "mess me up" but i won't but i really want to. Instead this is what i worked on
Lego winter Christmas house. The house is about half built and the rest is tomorrows project.
But the last three days have been full of crafting since i of course left all my projects that were Christmas presents to the last minute. 9- 12x12 pages. Here is a sample
and the close up of the flames. Chipboard flames that i inked with distress ink, blue, orange and red, then covered with glossy accents. Really makes the color pop and has the added bonus of blending the color.
next page i used a pattern paper i had and cut out arrows and arrows and layered them on the page rotating directions and adding wood chevron shapes.
close up of twine, i love twine like to add it to all my layouts. Here i used the tim holtz brads with hoops on the end ( i don't know what they are called) then connected them with twine. i like it a nice little accent.
and finally this layout is a 3-D one i created for my frames at home- but of course i will probably never put them in but i always have good intentions.
created the background chevron, ripped and distressed the edges of the background sheet, then ripped a slit on top and added the rub ons in behind. I like to add a ton of embellishments to my page, and those always have to include, metal, chipboard, and twine. Here i created made a border around the picture and then added clutters on the corners.
and close ups
MERRY CHRISTMAS!!
