Christmas time is always a fun filled time around here… I
love to make all kinds of presents… as that to us is truly the only way to give… from the heart…. And hands…
So I still have a few presents to finish up… and have been
working on them diligently everyday… and
might have them done sometime soon… hopefully anyway… only have a few weeks now… ugh…
Well these are a few of the things I have been working on… I
have making all of the tags on Tim’s 12 tags of Christmas… so when I spread
them all out… and added my own Tags… I had quite a few… over 50… so I decided
to share them…
And now what to put them into????
Oh wow… I had all these cute little houses … and they would
be perfect to hold about 10 or so… PERFECT… just have to decorate them…
So the process started…
I worked on them… and was sort of happy… but then I thought about the
tag that I hadn’t’ done on Sunday… and then the one this morning… and that is
the way that the houses were finished up…
Holly leaves |
On this house I was able to add the holly leaves in the
front center… They are made with the Shrink Plastic film... and then colored with the Alcohol inks... a little bow... and wow... so very pretty... love them on the front of the house
and I used the tissue
which I love and made some flowers… a
shrub and decorated the tree with some more flowers and some pearls… LOVE IT…. Fun
stuff to work with… I even covered an
entire little house with it.. but have to finish that one yet… Still in a quandary over the embellishments… always a process for me.. what style etc… My Shrub from tissue paper |
Another houses.... decorated entirely different... as it is for a different person... and they are very traditional in all ways... nothing out of the normal red and green for Christmas....
Anyway… these houses are 7 inches tall… and about 8 inches
wide… just the right size to hold my tags…
I have about 10 in each house!!!!
Now for another three houses and I will be happy… a HOME for
all my Christmas tags… what a fun way to
share them…
I hope that you enjoy seeing these houses… and that they
inspire you to create something today… I have just about tired myself out
already… as I really am tired from making these…. LOL… BUT… I still have enough energy to go pack up
a few boxes and get them mailed for the holidays… gotta keep on going…
These houses are also for the Challenge this week at Simon Says Stamp and Show.... it is for DEPTH!!! How special is that... I love doing these fun challenges... and theirs is always GREAT...hope you take a look at all the special projects and art going on there... really some FUNTASTICAL things...
