Happy Holidays Everyone!
It's getting so Christmasy over at Lost Coast Portal to Creativity with our Xmas celebrations underway....see my Day 1 of It's Beginning to Look a Lot Like Christmas projects if you haven't stopped by yet!
This is also the season for lots of dinner parties and guests need to
know where they are sitting so how about making some fun place holders
that are re-usable by adding banners die cut from Dry Erase White Board
tape by Scotch! I made these for our new LCPtoC Challenge #31 for December...this month's theme is Party Critters!
I used the following Lost Coast Designs stamps:
and
I used Nuance pigment powders by Magenta
to create the yummy colourful background. I love the feeling of
celebration they bring to my place holders, the burst of colours look
like fireworks...perfect! I used 3 of the newest colours to the Nuance
family: Aquamarine, Rosebud and Wisteria.
You'll notice there's some
extra colours mixed in there too...that's a little surprise you can get
with the powders. Sometimes a speck of powder from another colour gets
in by accident during production so you never really know what you're
going to get until you start creating. But it doesn't always happen so
each time you use the powders each result will have a different
effect...I think that's fun and quite magical. You can get the Nuance powders at Lost Coast Designs too!
The crows were all stamped with Onyx Black Versafine ink and the Loopy
Calligraphy background stamped with Aged Mahogany Distress Ink. I added
touches of colour to the Crow's hats with Prismacolor pencils and
embellished with tiny assorted pompoms and tinsel pipe cleaners. I used
a Marvy corner rounder punch on the edges and doodled the black and
white borders with Dylusions paint pens. I made folded cards from green
cardstock and adhered the everything with Scotch Quick Dry adhesive.
Thanks for stopping by to see my project today!
Have a fabulous weekend!
