an Altered box

Dear interestee,

I decided to broaden my horizon and took a stab at altering a card board box. It is a packaging from little cheese wedges and I thought it was a great project to try out.


Have a wonderful day and I hope you will visit again.

Sorry for delay

Dear blog readers,

I want to appologize for the fact that I didn't post anything for a couple of days. I found out that the procedure of posting photos changed on Blogger. So I had to figure out the new way and it took me a while as I am not that technically talented.....

So from now on i hope I will be able to post on a regular bases again.

Thank you for visiting my blog and I hope to welcome you here again. Don't be afraid to leave a comment.

Take care,

Frederique

Tag with Santa ATC

Merry Christmas everyone,

I hope you had some nice days. I did. Nice and quiet and lots of Chritmas spirited films....
Anyway.... I want to share another Christmas project. No I am not done just yet..

I made a tag with an ATC on it. It is more of a classic card.
 
The tag I embossed using a brass old fashioned embossing plate, the cuttlebug and a silicone embossing mat. It turned out quite nice and subtle. I then inked the tag with Distress innk and an ink blending tool. The edges I inked with Walnit stain distress ink to give it a distressed look. On the berries of the holly I stuck self adhesive pearls to give it some dimension. I glued a nice broad satin ribbon around the tag. Then I made my ATC.
 
 
 
It is stamped in a white card stock ATC in coffee brown Stãzon ink. I then heat embossed the various areas and added a sentiment. All the edges were distressed with Walnut Stain distress ink and an ink blending tool. It was glued on the card and ready to send.
 
Until next time,
 
Frederique
