First, several different Christmas stamps were used to create a collage effect. Then distressed inks also used in a collage fashion. The technique T!m was using on his tag was a hanging embellishment, T!m used his memory glass, but I was completely out so I needed to improvise... Since I didn't have a memory glass I used a metal picture frame, alcohol inked in for an aging effect. Metal corners were also inked and used like the roof top of a house. Then glued a fragment with my choice of background. Stickles was used to make the icycles on the roof, T!m then used a memory capsul (which I also did not have on hand) I made my own memory capsul from these little plastic bubbles that I have had for years... filled it with some seed beads, attached the bells and bow and waa laa....
Thank you for stopping by my blog... hope your enjoying your holiday crafting. Have a blessed Christmas ! xoxo
