week! Monday through Saturday we will be knocking your Christmas

"pond" on each day, oohing and aaahhhing as you go, and leaving us
plenty of holiday love. In return, you'll be entered to randomly win one
prize package for a UK commenter, and a second prize package for a US
commenter, featuring products distributed in the UK by
Woodware...including Dreamweaver and Stampendous!

Prize includes four stencils, one die, and two stamps, selection may vary. |
Here's my creation for today's post:

Sometimes when you are in the middle of a creative brainstorm (and that's putting it nicely!), you feel the need to throw everything on the card! And sometimes it actually works! For this card, I used Dreamweaver
Regular Embossing Paste with the
Oval Ornament stencil, and while still wet, I pressed a generous handful of bright
colored buttons into the surface. I sprinkled the in-between spaces and the top of the ornament with Stampendous
Multi Fine Crystal Glitter for sparkle. (The fun part was swiping away the extra glitter from the buttons!) I added
peppermint striped baker's twine to the top, and layered the
kraft panel onto a
kraft card and fun paper. A sweet little
Stampendous sentiment stamped in red was the finishing touch!
Now's the time for you to leave a comment and move on to the next designer for today:
Very clever, I wouldn't have tried that with the paste, you are still my hero!
ReplyDeleteA lovely idea to use up some of the many buttons we crafters collect!
ReplyDeleteWhat a cute idea - I wouldn't have thought of pressing buttons into it like that - it's great.
ReplyDeleteSo pretty! Love how the ornament stands out against the kraft!
ReplyDeleteSo sweet Pam! The buttons give it such a homey feel (no, not homely!) I am amazed at how well you got those buttons to fit in there!
