W.O.C METAL FILIGREE FLOWERS

Hey guys,

Below in my previous post there was a video about my DT pack & haul, I mentioned about doubling up the metal filigree flowers you can buy from WOC, and referred to the photo of what I had done, on my blog, but I can't seem to find it so I thought I would show it on this post instead. So below is 2 of the filigree flowers that I doubled up, and swiped with Pebeo wax to highlight the parts I wanted to highlight. I absolutely love these metal flowers and all the different looks you can get with them, and this is just one example..........

 
 
So below is a photo of how the flowers look in the shop and here is the product code for you,
MKX-388 10 FILIGREE ANTIQUE GOLD FLOWER EMBELLISHMENTS
 
I do hope this has helped you in regards to how you can make these look, and they are stunning as is, with maybe just a pearl in the centre.
Thanks for looking and have a lovely day!

A VINTAGE CHRISTMAS TAG VIDEO TUTORIAL

Hey there crafty peeps!! as promised yesterday, I have filmed a video of me making my vintage Christmas tag, not the decorating part cause you can pick your own embellies etc to go on your project, but the stamping and composition of the piece, so that it is made easy and any crafter at any stamping level can do it, its so easy, I promise!!! I go through it step by step and break it down, so without further ado......here it is.....hope you find it helpful.
Why not leave me a comment on here or Youtube so I know you've been to visit me and any questions you may have, or even requests for more!
 Hugs, Vick xx

CHRISTMAS TAG SWAP

Hey Guys, how are you all? December already hey? So, I was on my facebook account the other day, as usual, and I thought, "Hmmm....it would be nice to organise a tag swap every month starting this month, so that's what I did, I started a group that will follow the theme and make a tag to swap every month, cheap on postage and quick to do, so the first theme I chose was "Vintage Christmas" and here is my offering for my swap partner, although I was silly really as all my Christmas stash is still packed from when we moved, lol, so I found one stamps set, had my lace and some bits and a white pencil and that was it, lol........so here it is, thanks for looking and have a lovely night xx

Ingredients included a glass pebble I made with the "Happy Holidays" text, Poinsettia stamp and die, lace, satin ribbon, calico, mesh ribbon, all from my stash, satin rose made by me, silver heart from stash, stickles, white pencil, various stamps, kraft card tag
